Back in 1755, Euler explored an interesting array of numbers that now frequently appears in polynomial identities, combinatorial problems, and finite calculus, among other places. These numbers share a strong connection with well-known…

In this paper we investigate the properties of the Euler functions. By using the Fourier transform for the Euler function, we derive the interesting formula related to the infinite series. Finally we give some interesting identities between…

The series expansion of a power of the modified Bessel function of the first kind is studied. This expansion involves a family of polynomials introduced by C. Bender et al. New results on these polynomials established here include…

$q$-analogs of special functions, including hypergeometric functions, play a central role in mathematics and have numerous applications in physics. In the theory of probability, $q$-analogs of various probability distributions have been…

Hall's binomial rings, rings with binomial coefficients, are given an axiomatisation and proved identical to the numerical rings studied by Ekedahl. The Binomial Transfer Principle is established, enabling combinatorial proofs of…

Considerable thought has been devoted to an adequate definition of the class of infinite, random binary sequences (the sort of sequence that almost certainly arises from flipping a fair coin indefinitely). The first mathematical exploration…

We retrace the recent history of the Umbral Calculus. After studying the classic results concerning polynomial sequences of binomial type, we generalize to a certain type of logarithmic series. Finally, we demonstrate numerous typical…

We prove a short general theorem which immediately implies some classical results of Hasse, Guillera and Sondow, Paolo Amore, and also Alzer and Richards. At the end we obtain a new representation for the Euler constant gamma. The theorem…

The first author introduced a sequence of polynomials (\cite{8}, sequence A174531) defined recursively. One of the main results of this study is proof of the integrality of its coefficients.

Many proofs of the fundamental theorem of algebra rely on the fact that the minimum of the modulus of a complex polynomial over the complex plane is attained at some complex number. The proof then follows by arguing the minimum value is…

We consider a class of generalized binomials emerging in fractional calculus. After establishing some general properties, we focus on a particular yet relevant case, for which we provide several ready-for-use combinatorial identities,…

Cyclotomic polynomials are basic objects in Number Theory. Their properties depend on the number of distinct primes that intervene in the factorization of their order, and the binary case is thus the first nontrivial case. This paper sees…

Fewnomial theory began with explicit bounds -- solely in terms of the number of variables and monomial terms -- on the number of real roots of systems of polynomial equations. Here we take the next logical step of investigating the…

Binomial coefficients have been used for centuries in a variety of fields and have accumulated numerous definitions. In this paper, we introduce a new way of defining binomial coefficients as repeated sums of ones. A multitude of binomial…

In this paper the author considers a particular type of polynomials with integer coefficients, consisting of a perfect power and two norm forms of abelian number fields with coprime discriminants. It is shown that such a polynomial…

In this note, we use the concept of a polynomial ring to give an elementary proof to Cayley-Hamilton Theorem. We also give an elementary proof to Birkhoff theorem on Bi-stochastic matrices.

In this paper we investigate the factorization behaviour of the binomial polynomials $\binom{x}{n} = \frac{x(x-1)\cdots (x-n+1)}{n!}$ and their powers in the ring of integer-valued polynomials $\operatorname{Int}(\mathbb{Z})$. While it is…

We investigate the structure of ideals generated by binomials (polynomials with at most two terms) and the schemes and varieties associated to them. The class of binomial ideals contains many classical examples from algebraic geometry, and…

In this paper we present a new mathematical conception based on a new method for ordering the integers. The method relies on the assumption that negative numbers are beyond infinity, which goes back to Wallis and Euler. We also present a…
