New identities for binary Krawtchouk polynomials, binomial coefficients and Catalan numbers

Combinatorics 2016-07-26 v2

Abstract

We obtain new combinatorial identities for integral values of binary Krawtchouk polynomials Kp2m(x)K^{2m}_p(x), 0p2m0\le p\le 2m, by computing the characters of the pp-exterior representations on certain elements of order 2 of SO(2m)\mathrm{SO}(2m). From this identities, we deduce several new relations for binomial coefficients and Catalan numbers.
