ABSTRACT. The paper answers an old question of Pólya involving Descartes ’ Rule of Signs and a related conjecture of Karlin involving the signs of Wronskians of entire functions and their derivatives. Counterexamples are given along with classes of functions for which the conjecture is valid. 0. Introduction. The purpose of this paper is to answer an old unsolved question of Pólya (c. 1934) and to resolve a related conjecture of Karlin (c. 1967). In Section 1 we state Pólya’s question, Karlin’s conjecture, provide some background information and recall the defi-nitions and terminology that will be used in the sequel. For a genera
