Many kinds of convolution identities have been considered about several numbers, including Bernoulli, Euler, Genocchi, Cauchy, Stirling, and Fibonacci numbers. The well-known basic result about Bernoulli numbers is due to Euler. The…

We present an explicit product formula for the spherical functions of the compact Gelfand pairs $(G,K_1)= (SU(p+q), SU(p)\times SU(q))$ with $p\ge 2q$, which can be considered as the elementary spherical functions of one-dimensional…

We extend the definitions of $\nabla-$convex and completely monotonic functions for two variables. Some general identities of Popoviciu type for sum $\sum \sum p_{ij} f(y_i, z_j)$ and integrals $\int P(y)f(y) dy$, $\int \int P(y,z) f(y,z)…

Ingham studied two types of convolution sums of the divisor function, namely the shifted convolution sum $\sum_{n \le N} d(n) d(n+h)$ and the additive convolution sum $\sum_{n < N} d(n) d(N-n)$ for integers $N, h$ and derived their…

The convolution properties are discussed for the complex-valued harmonic functions in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ constructed from the harmonic shearing of the analytic function $\phi(z):=\int_0^z…

We extend A.B. Mingarelli's method for constructing generalized factorials. Our extension uses a pair of arithmetic functions $(x, y)$, where $x$ is superadditive. When $x$ is the identity function, our generalized factorial reduces to…

We evaluate the hyperpfaffian of a skew-symmetric $k$-ary polynomial $f$ of degree $k/2 \cdot (n-1)$. The result is a product of the Vandermonde product and a certain expression involving the coefficients of the polynomial $f$. The proof…

Cauchy's sum theorem is a prototype of what is today a basic result on the convergence of a series of functions in undergraduate analysis. We seek to interpret Cauchy's proof, and discuss the related epistemological questions involved in…

We study the combinatorial properties of final types, which are certain non-decreasing sequences of integers, together with the partitions naturally associated with them. As a consequence, we obtain an identity expressing the $n$-nacci…

We investigate integrality and divisibility properties of Fourier coefficients of meromorphic modular forms of weight $2k$ associated to positive definite integral binary quadratic forms. For example, we show that if there are no…

This paper presents a systematic study for analytic aspects of Fourier-Zernike series of convolutions of functions supported on disks. We then investigate different aspects of the presented theory in the cases of zero-padded functions.

In this paper, we are dealing with the solution of the functional equation $$ \varphi\Big(\frac{x+y}2\Big)(f(x)-f(y))=F(x)-F(y), $$ concerning the unknown functions $\varphi,f$ and $F$ defined on a same open subinterval of the reals.…

For finite sums of non-negative powers of arithmetic progressions the generating functions (ordinary and exponential ones) for given powers are computed. This leads to a two parameter generalization of Stirling and Eulerian numbers. A…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic 0, $f:\mathbb{N}\to K$ be a multiplicative function, and $F(z)=\sum_{n\geq 1} f(n)z^n\in K[[z]]$ be algebraic over $K(z)$. Then either there is a natural number $k$ and a periodic multiplicative function…

An identity is derived expressing Schur functions as sums over products of pairs of Schur $Q$-functions, generalizing previously known special cases. This is shown to follow from their representations as vacuum expectation values (VEV's) of…

By means of the generating function method, a linear recurrence relation is explicitly resolved. The solution is expressed in terms of the Stirling numbers of both the first and the second kind. Two remarkable pairs of combinatorial…

This paper studies properties of the integer sequence $\overline{\overline{G}}_n=\prod_{k=0}^n\binom{n}{k}_{\mathbb{Z},\mathbb{N}}$ which is analogous to $\overline{G}_n=\prod_{k=0}^n\binom{n}{k}$, the product of the elements of the $n$-th…

For any integer $k$, M.Kaneko defined $k$-th poly-Bernoulli numbers as a kind of generalization of classical Bernoulli numbers using $k$-th polylogarithm. In case when $k$ is positive, $k$-th poly-Bernoulli numbers is a sequence of rational…

We give continued fraction expansions of the generating functions of Bernoulli numbers, Cauchy numbers, Euler numbers, harmonic numbers, and their generalized or related numbers. In particular, we focus on explicit forms of the convergents…
