This work is devoted to the mathematical analysis of Stieltjes Bochner spaces and their applications to the resolution of a parabolic equation with Stieltjes time derivative. This novel formulation allows us to study parabolic equations…
The Stieltjes coefficients $\gamma_k(a)$ arise in the expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,a)$ about its single simple pole at $s=1$ and are of fundamental and long-standing importance in analytic number theory and other…
We investigate compositions of a positive integer with a fixed number of parts, when there are several types of each natural number. These compositions produce new relationships among binomial coefficients, Catalan numbers, and numbers of…
Multiple analogues of certain families of combinatorial numbers are recently constructed by the author in terms of well poised Macdonald functions, and some of their fundamental properties are developed. In this paper, we present…
We show that the limiting distributions of the coefficients of the $q$-Catalan numbers and the generalized $q$-Catalan numbers are normal. Despite the fact that these coefficients are not unimodal for small $n$, we conjecture that for…
We reprove a few results concerning paperfolding sequences using properties of Catalan numbers modulo 2.
We derive a new integral formula for the Stieltjes constants. The new formula permits easy computations as well as an exact approximate asymptotic formula. Both the sign oscillations and the leading order of growth are provided. The formula…

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…
A class of Stieltjes functions of finite type is introduced. These satisfy Widder's conditions on the successive derivatives up to some finite order, and are not necessarily smooth. We show that such functions have a unique integral…
We investigate conditions in order to decide whether a given sequence of real numbers represents expected record values arising from an independent, identically distributed, sequence of random variables. The main result provides a necessary…
In this note we show that various natural q-analogues of the Catalan numbers can be obtained in a uniform way. Furthermore we compute their Hankel determinants.
We consider the random continued fraction S(t) := 1/(s_1 + t/(s_2 + t/(s_3 + >...))) where the s_n are independent random variables with the same gamma distribution. For every realisation of the sequence, S(t) defines a Stieltjes function.…

The Stieltjes moment problem is studied in the framework of general Gelfand-Shilov spaces defined via weight sequences. We characterize the injectivity and surjectivity of the Stieltjes moment mapping, sending a function to its sequence of…
The classical Castelnuovo numbers count linear series of minimal degree and fixed dimension on a general curve, in the case when this number is finite. For pencils, that is, linear series of dimension one, the Castelnuovo numbers specialize…
Using generalized binomial coefficient identities and some results of John Dougall, we derive some families of series involving the cubes of Catalan numbers. We also establish a family of series containing fourth powers of Catalan numbers.…
