In 2021, the first author and Kalita obtained two general hypergeometric formulas for sums involving certain rising factorials to prove some supercongruence conjectures of Guo related to (B.2) and (C.2). In this paper, we further generalize…

In this paper, we consider the fractional sum of the divisor functions. We can improve previous results considered by Bordell\'{e}s \cite{Bo} and Liu-Wu-Yang \cite{LWY}.

New cases of the multiplicity conjecture are considered.

Let $p$ be a prime. In this short note we study some families of super congruences involving the following alternating sums \begin{equation*} \sum_{\substack{j_1+j_2+\cdots+j_n=2 p^r p\nmid j_1 j_2 \cdots j_n}}…

We prove the divisibility conjecture on sums of even powers of $q$-binomial coefficients, which was recently proposed by Guo, Schlosser and Zudilin. Our proof relies on two $q$-harmonic series congruences due to Shi and Pan.

We find and prove relationships between Riemann zeta values and central binomial sums. We also investigate alternating binomial sums (also called Ap\'ery sums). The study of non-alternating sums leads to an investigation of different types…

Several conjectural continued fractions found with the help of various algorithms are published in this paper.

We study divisibility properties of certain sums and alternating sums involving binomial coefficients and powers of integers. For example, we prove that for all positive integers $n_1,..., n_m$, $n_{m+1}=n_1$, and any nonnegative integer…

We prove a conjecture by Tu, Zeng, Li, and Helleseth concerning trinomials $f_{\alpha,\beta}(x)= x + \alpha x^{q(q-1)+1} + \beta x^{2(q-1)+1} \in \mathbb{F}_{q^2}[x]$, $\alpha\beta \neq 0$, $q$ even, characterizing all the pairs…

In this work, we affirm the conjecture proposed by Gabriele Fici and Filippo Mignosi at the 10th Conference on Combinatorics on Words.

In this paper, we pose lots of challenging conjectures on congruences for the sums involving binomial coefficients and Ap\'ery-like numbers modulo $p^3$, where $p$ is an odd prime.

In this paper, we will give another proof of Zhi-Wei Sun's three conjectures on Ap\'{e}ry-like sums involving harmonic numbers by proving some identities among special values of multiple polylogarithms.

This paper highlights three known identities, each of which involves sums over alternating sign matrices. While proofs of all three are known, the only known derivations are as corollaries of difficult results. The simplicity and natural…

In this paper we extend some results obtained by Artamonov and Sabitov for quantum polynomials to skew quantum polynomials and quasi-commutative bijective skew PBW extensions. Moreover, we find a counterexample to the conjecture proposed in…

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…

Explicit determinations of several classes of trigonometric sums are given. These sums can be viewed as analogues or generalizations of Gauss sums. In a previous paper, two of the present authors considered primarily sine sums associated…

Permutation polynomials over finite fields constitute an active research area and have applications in many areas of science and engineering. In this paper, two conjectures on permutation polynomials proposed recently by Wu and Li [19] are…
