In 2008, Lehner, Wettig, Guhr and Wei conjectured a power series identity and showed that it implied a determinantal formula for a Bessel-type integral over the unitary supergroup. The integral is the supersymmetric extension of Bessel-type…

We prove some polynomial identities from which we deduce congruences modulo $p^2$ for the Fermat quotient $\frac{2^p-2}{p}$ for any odd prime $p$ (Proposition 1 and Theorem 1). These congruences are simpler than the one obtained by…

Suppose that $p$ is an odd prime and $m$ is an integer not divisible by $p$. Sun and Tauraso [Adv. in Appl. Math., 45(2010), 125--148] gave $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\binom{2k}{k+d}/m^k$ and $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\binom{2k}{k+d}/(km^k)$ modulo $p$ for…

Utilizing spectral residues of parameterized, recursively defined sequences, we develop a general method for generating identities of composition sums. Specific results are obtained by focusing on coefficient sequences of solutions of first…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions, in the form of matrix identities, for a polynomial f in C[X,Y] to be a component of a polynomial automorphism of C^2 and to be a component of a Keller polynomial mapping of C^2, respectively…

We prove four identities for the squared central binomial coefficients. The first three of them reflect certain transformation properties of the complete elliptic integrals of the first and the second kind, while the last one is based on…

A relationship between signed Eulerian polynomials and the classical Eulerian polynomials on $\mathfrak{S}_n$ was given by D\'{e}sarm\'{e}nien and Foata in 1992, and a refined version, called signed Euler-Mahonian identity, together with a…

We give a new proof of a polynomial identity involving the minors of a matrix, that originated in the study of integer torsion in a local cohomology module.

Departing from a class of infinite series with central binomial coefficients in the numerator and depending on a positive integer parameter, we first extend known identities to all complex parameters. Then we use various methods, including…

A systematic procedure for generating certain identities involving elementary symmetric functions is proposed. These identities, as particular cases, lead to new identities for binomial and q-binomial coefficients.

Recently, the present authors jointly with Tauraso found a family of binomial identities for multiple harmonic sums (MHS) on strings $(\{2\}^a,c,\{2\}^b)$ that appeared to be useful for proving new congruences for MHS as well as new…

In this note, we present several identities involving binomial coefficients and the two kind of Stirling numbers.

Here are exhibited some additional results about the continuous binomial coefficients as introduced by L. Cano and R. Diaz in [1].

In this work, we completely characterize (i) permutation binomials of the form $x^{{{2^n -1}\over {2^t-1}}+1}+ ax \in \mathbb{F}_{2^n}[x], n = 2^st, a \in \mathbb{F}_{2^{2t}}^{*}$, and (ii) permutation trinomials of the form…

We prove an interesting identity for the sum of determinants, which is a generalization of the sum of a geometric progression. The proof is quite long and a number of other identities are proved along the way. Some of the more elementary…

This article explains the similar appearance of two polynomial identities involving Dickson polynomials in char. 2, one found by Abhyankar, Cohen, and Zieve, and the other found by the author.

Let $\mathbf{P}^{m}_{b}(x)$ be a $2m+1$-degree polynomial in $x$ and $b \in \mathbb{R}$ \[ \mathbf{P}^{m}_{b}(x) = \sum_{k=0}^{b-1} \sum_{r=0}^{m} \mathbf{A}_{m,r} k^r (x-k)^r \] where $\mathbf{A}_{m,r}$ are real coefficients. In this…

In this paper, we fix a polynomial with complex coefficients and determine the eigenforms for SL2(Z) which can be expressed as the fixed polynomial evaluated at other eigenforms. In particular, we show that when one excludes trivial cases,…

Hirose, Murahara, and Saito proved that some $t$-adic symmetric multiple zeta values, for indices in which $1$ and $3$ appear alternately in succession, can be expressed as polynomials in Riemann zeta values, and conjectured similar…
