The study of sums of possibly associated Bernoulli random variables has been hampered by an asymmetry between positive correlation and negative correlation. The Conway-Maxwell Binomial (COMB) distribution and its multivariate extension, the…
We prove a duality formula for certain sums of values of poly-Bernoulli polynomials which generalizes dualities for poly-Bernoulli numbers. We first compute two types of generating functions for these sums, from which the duality formula is…
In this paper, we find an elementary approach for double sums where the inner sum is binomial but incomplete. We apply our core identity and its relatives to double sums involving famous numbers such as harmonic numbers, Fibonacci numbers,…
We establish some identities relating two sequences that are, as explained, related to the Tribonacci sequence. One of these sequences bears the same resemblance to the Tribonacci sequence as the Lucas sequence does to the Fibonacci…
In a recent paper the authors studied the denominators of polynomials that represent power sums by Bernoulli's formula. Here we extend our results to power sums of arithmetic progressions. In particular, we obtain a simple explicit…
This paper derives sparse recurrence relations between orthogonal polynomials on a triangle and their partial derivatives, which are analogous to recurrence relations for Jacobi polynomials. We derive these recurrences in a systematic…

Using a straightforward elementary approach, we derive numerous infinite arctangent summation formulas involving Fibonacci and Lucas numbers. While most of the results obtained are new, a couple of celebrated results appear as particular…
In this paper we discuss a class of double sums involving ratios of binomial coefficients. The sums are of the form \[ \sum_{j=0}^{n} \sum_{i=0}^j \frac{\binom{f_1(n)}{i}}{\binom{f_2(n)}{j}}\,c^{i-j}, \] where $f_1, f_2$ are functions of…
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…
In 2013, Conway and Ryba wrote a fascinating paper called Fibonometry. The paper, as one might guess, is about the connection between Fibonacci numbers and trigonometry. We were fascinated by this paper and looked at how we could generalize…
In this paper, we investigate some properties of q-Bernoulli polynomi- als arising from q-umbral calculus. Finally, we derive some interesting identities of q-Bernoulli polynomials from our investigation.
In this paper, we shall find a new connection between $n$th degree polynomial mod $p$ congruence with $n$ roots and higher-order Fibonacci and Lucas sequences. We shall first discuss the recent work been done in sequences and their…
Recently, the properties of a binomial sum related to the multi-link inverted pendulum enumeration problem have been studied. In this note, we establish bounds for this binomial sum.
We study matrices which transform the sequence of Fibonacci or Lucas polynomials with even index to those with odd index and vice versa. They turn out to be intimately related to generalized Stirling numbers and to Bernoulli, Genocchi and…

In this note we prove combinatorially some new formulas connecting poly-Bernoulli numbers with negative indices to Eulerian numbers.
We explicitly determine the Ap\'ery limits for the sums of powers of binomial coefficients. As an application, we prove a weak version of Franel's conjecture on the order of the recurrences for these sequences. Namely, we prove the…
