In this article we charaterize the primes Fibonacci numbers of the form $x^2 +ry^2$, where $r = 1,$ $r$ is a prime positive integer number or r is a power of a prime positive integer, using techniques of combinatorics and numbers theory. We…
We describe an algorithm for computing Bernoulli numbers. Using a parallel implementation, we have computed B(k) for k = 10^8, a new record. Our method is to compute B(k) modulo p for many small primes p, and then reconstruct B(k) via the…
We study properties of recently introduced Wieferich primes for Drinfeld modules, as their relation with Fermat equations and finitess or non-finiteness of their number. We also introduce Mersenne numbers for Drinfeld modules, and study the…
The relations between the Bernoulli and Eulerian polynomials of higher order and the complete Bell polynomials are found that lead to new identities for the Bernoulli and Eulerian polynomials and numbers of higher order. General form of…
A Wolstenholme prime is a prime number $p \geq 5$ that divides the numerator of the Bernoulli number $B_{p-3}$. A number of equivalent definitions for Wolstenholme primes are known, mostly related to congruences of harmonic sums or binomial…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of the (higher order) Appell-Carlitz numbers which unifies the definitions of several special numbers in positive characteristic, such as the Bernoulli-Carlitz numbers and the Cauchy-Carlitz…
In the paper, the occurrence of zeros and ones in the binary expansion of the primes is studied. In particular the statement in the title is established. The proof is unconditional.
We construct and study a certain zeta function which interpolates multi-poly-Bernoulli numbers at non-positive integers and whose values at positive integers are linear combinations of multiple zeta values. This function can be regarded as…
A prime number $p$ is said to be a Wolstenholme prime if it satisfies the congruence ${2p-1\choose p-1} \equiv 1 \,\,(\bmod{\,\,p^4})$. For such a prime $p$, we establish the expression for ${2p-1\choose p-1}\,\,(\bmod{\,\,p^8})$ given in…
In the paper, the author finds an explicit formula for computing Bell numbers in terms of Lah numbers and Stirling numbers of the second kind.
We prove certain identities involving Euler and Bernoulli polynomials that can be treated as recurrences. We use these and also other known identities to indicate connection of Euler and Bernoulli numbers with entries of inverses of certain…
Dickson conjectured that a set of polynomials will take on infinitely many simultaneous prime values. Later others, such as Hardy and Littlewood, gave estimates for the number of these primes. In this article we look at this conjecture,…
Pairs of metrics in a two-dimensional linear vector space are considered, one of which is a Minkowski type metric. Their simultaneous diagonalizability is studied and canonical presentations for them are suggested.
This work deals with a new generalization of $r$-Stirling numbers using $l$-tuple of permutations and partitions called $(l,r)$-Stirling numbers of both kinds. We study various properties of these numbers using combinatorial interpretations…
The Delannoy numbers and Schr\"oder numbers are given by \begin{align*} D_n=\sum_{k=0}^n{n\choose k}{n+k\choose k}\quad \text{and}\quad S_n=\sum_{k=0}^n{n\choose k}{n+k\choose k}\frac{1}{k+1}, \end{align*} respectively. Let $p>3$ be a…
We derive several symmetric identities for Bernoulli and Euler polynomials which imply some known identities. Our proofs depend on the new technique developed in part I and some identities obtained in [European J. Combin. 24(2003),…
We introduce the $B$-Stirling numbers of the first and second kind, which are the coefficients of the potential polynomials when we express them in terms of the monomials and the falling factorials, respectively. These numbers include, as…
We consider the representation of primes as a sum of a prime and twice a triangular number. We prove that a subset of the primes having density 1 is expressible in this form. We conjecture that every odd prime number is expressible as a sum…
In this paper, we derive some identities involving special numbers and moments of random variables by using the generating functions of the moments of certain random variables. Here the related special numbers are Stirling numbers of the…
