In this note, we propose simple summations for primes, which involve two finite nested sums and Bernoulli numbers. The summations can also be expressed in terms of Bernoulli polynomials.

We consider a special class of binomial sums involving harmonic numbers and we prove three identities by using the elementary method of the partial fraction decomposition. Some applications to infinite series and congruences are given.

The aim of this paper is to introduce truncated degenerate Bell polynomials and numbers and to investigate some of their properties. In more detail, we obtain explicit expressions, identities involving other special polynomials, integral…

In this paper, we present new explicit simultaneous rational approximations converging sub-exponentially to the values of Bell polynomials at the points of the form $(\gamma, 1! (2a+1)\zeta(2), 2!\zeta(3),..., (m-1)!(a+1+(-1)^ma)\zeta(m)),$…

We introduce a shifted version of the binomial theorem, and use it to study some remarkable trigonometric integrals and their explicit rewriting in terms of binomial multiple sums. Motivated by the expressions of area generating functions…

We determine the set of polynomials $f(x)\in k[x]$, where $k$ is a finite field, such that the local system on $\mathbb G_m^2$ which parametrizes the family of exponential sums $(s,t)\mapsto\sum_{x\in k}\psi(sf(x)+tx)$ has finite monodromy,…

We study positive bilinear forms on a Hilbert space which are neither not necessarily bounded nor induced by some positive operator. We show when different families of bilinear forms can be described as a generalized effect algebra. In…

Let $p$ be a prime, and $N$ be a positive integer not divisible by $p$. Denote by ${\rm ord}_N(p)$ the multiplicative order of $p$ modulo $N$. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ represent the finite field of order $q=p^{{\rm ord}_N(p)}$. For $a,…

In this paper, we prove two related central binomial series identities: $B(4)=\sum_{n \geq 0} \frac{\binom{2n}n}{2^{4n}(2n+1)^3}=\frac{7 \pi^3}{216}$ and $C(4)=\sum_{n \in \mathbb{N}} \frac{1}{n^4 \binom{2n}n}=\frac{17 \pi^4}{3240}.$ Both…

Let $B_n$ be the $n$-th balancing number. In this paper, we give some explicit expressions of $\sum_{l=0}^{2 r-3}(-1)^l\binom{2 r-3}{l}\sum_{j_1+\cdots+j_r=n-2 l\atop j_1,\dots,j_r\ge 1}B_{j_1}\cdots B_{j_r}$ and…

We establish a new class of relations among the multiple zeta values \zeta(k_1,k_2,...,k_n), which we call the cyclic sum identities. These identities have an elementary proof, and imply the "sum theorem" for multiple zeta values. They also…

In \cite{TallaWaffo2025arxiv2511.02843} we introduced even polynomials $\Xi_n,\Lambda_n\in\mathbb{Q}[x]$ arising from integral representations of $\beta(2n)/\pi^{2n-1}$ and $\zeta(2n+1)/\pi^{2n}$. In this paper we give explicit closed…

We show that for any mod $2^m$ characters, $\chi_1, \chi_2,$ the complete exponential sum, $$ \sum_{x=1}^{2^m}\chi_1(x) \chi_2(Ax^k+B), $$ has a simple explicit evaluation.

We examine a family of three-dimensional exponential sums with monomials and provide estimates which are in some instances sharper than those stemming from approaches entailing the use of existing bounds pertaining to analogous sums.

We generalize Mammana's classification of limits of direct sums to more than two factors. We also extend it from polynomials to arbitrary Segre-Veronese format, generalising and unifying results of Buczy\'nska-Buczy\'nski-Kleppe-Teitler,…

A new family of generalized Pell numbers was recently introduced and studied by Br\'od \cite{Dorota}. These number possess, as Fibonacci numbers, a Binet formula. Using this, partial sums of arbitrary powers of generalized Pell numbers can…
