Abstract
It is well-known that the coordinator polynomials of the classical root lattice of type An and those of type Cn are real-rooted. They can be obtained, either by the Aissen-Schoenberg-Whitney theorem, or from their recurrence relations. In this paper, we develop a trigonometric substitution approach which can be used to establish the real-rootedness of coordinator polynomials of type Dn. We also find the coordinator polynomials of type Bn are not real-rooted in general. As a conclusion, we obtain that all coordinator polynomials of Weyl group lattices are log-concave.
