The Boros-Moll sequences ₍m)\₌₀ᵐ arise in the study of evaluation of a quartic integral. After the infinite log-concavity conjecture of the sequence ₍m)\₌₀ᵐ was proposed by Boros and Moll, a lot of interesting inequalities on d₍m) were obtained, although the conjecture is still open. Since d₍m) has two parameters, it is natural to consider the properties for the sequences ₍m)≥, which are called the transposed Boros-Moll sequences here. In this paper, we mainly prove the extended reverse ultra log-concavity of the transposed Boros-Moll sequences ₍m)≥, and hence give an upper bound for the ratio d_²(m)/(d₍m-1)d₍m+1)). A lower bound for this ratio is also established which implies a result stronger than the log-concavity of the sequences ₍m)≥. As a consequence, we also show that the transposed Boros-Moll sequences possess a stronger log-concave property than the Boros-Moll sequences do. At last, we propose some conjectures on the Boros-Moll sequences and their transposes.
