In 2002 Zhi-Wei Sun [Integers 2(2002)] published a curious identity involving binomial coefficients. In this paper we present a generalization of the identity.
We investigate some classes of infinite series involving central binomial coefficients, particularly focusing on those arising from ratios such as $\binom{2n}{n}\binom{4n}{2n}^{-1}$,$\binom{4n}{2n}\binom{2n}{n}^{-1}$ and related…
When searching for Calabi.Yau differential equations, often different formulas for the coefficients give the same differential equation. The coefficients are usually sums (simple, double or triple) of products of binomial coefficients. This…
In this short note, we establish some identities containing sums of binomials with coefficients satisfying third order linear recursive relations. As a result and in particular, we obtain general forms of earlier identities involving…
We formulate several polynomial identities. One side of these identities has a nice simple form. Whereas the other has a form of a polynomial whose coefficients contain binomial coefficients double factorials or (and) rising factorials. The…
We present a different proof of the following identity due to Munarini, which generalizes a curious binomial identity of Simons. \begin{align*} \sum_{k=0}^{n}\binom{\alpha}{n-k}\binom{\beta+k}{k}x^k…
We prove an identity [Eq. (1) below] among SU(2) 6j and 9j symbols that generalizes the Biedenharn-Elliott sum rule. We prove the result using diagrammatic techniques (briefly reviewed here), and then provide an algebraic proof. This…
A combinatorial identity that was needed in Ahlgren and Ono's proof of a certain congruence conjecture of Frits Beukers is stated, and a pointer to its WZ proof is given.
We give a short and elementary proof of a $(q, \mu, \nu)$-deformed Binomial distribution identity arising in the study of the $(q, \mu, \nu)$-Boson process and the $(q, \mu, \nu)$-TASEP. This identity found by Corwin in [4] was a key…
In this paper, we explore a variety of series involving the central binomial coefficients, highlighting their structural properties and connections to other mathematical objects. Specifically, we derive new closed-form representations and…
We give a $q$-analogue of some binomial coefficient identities of Y. Sun [Electron. J. Combin. 17 (2010), #N20] as follows: {align*} \sum_{k=0}^{\lfloor n/2\rfloor}{m+k\brack k}_{q^2}{m+1\brack n-2k}_{q} q^{n-2k\choose 2} &={m+n\brack…
In this series of seven papers, predominantly by means of elementary analysis, we establish a number of identities related to the Riemann zeta function. Whilst this paper is mainly expository, some of the formulae reported in it are…
Recursive matrices are ubiquitous in combinatorics, which have been extensively studied. We focus on the study of the sums of $2\times 2$ minors of certain recursive matrices, the alternating sums of their $2\times 2$ minors, and the sums…
In this paper we present many new families of identities for multiple harmonic sums using binomial coefficients. Some of these generalize a few recent results of Hessami Pilehrood et al. As applications we prove several conjectures…
In the paper, with the aid of the series expansions of the square or cubic of the arcsine function, the authors establish several possibly new combinatorial identities containing the ratio of two central binomial coefficients which are…
We evaluate in closed form several alternating infinite series involving the binomial coefficients $C(4n,2n)$ and $C(4n+2,2n+1)$ in the denominator. One of our results generalizes an identity that was obtained experimentally by Sprugnoli in…

We prove polynomial identities for the N=1 superconformal model SM(2,4\nu) which generalize and extend the known Fermi/Bose character identities. Our proof uses the q-trinomial coefficients of Andrews and Baxter on the bosonic side and a…
Recently, the author and Yamamoto invented a new proof of the duality for multiple zeta values. The technique is applicable in other series identities. In this article, we exhibit such proofs for some series identities.
We prove a double binomial sum identity which differs from most binomial sum identities in that the summands involve the absolute value function. The identity is of interest because it can be used in proofs of lower bounds for the Hadamard…
