The binomial convolution of two sequences $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ is the sequence whose $n$th term is $\sum_{k=0}^{n} \binom{n}{k} a_k b_{n-k}$. If $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ have rational generating functions then so does their binomial…

Poincar\'e series of $p$-adic, definable equivalence relations have been studied in various cases since Igusa's and Denef's work related to counting solutions of polynomial equations modulo $p^n$ for prime $p$. General semi-algebraic…

The purpose of this paper is to construct p-adic analytically continued function which interpolates q-Euler numbers at negative integer Finally, we give an explicit p-adic expansion as a power series in n.

Let $m$ and $n>0$ be integers. Suppose that $p$ is a prime dividing $m-4$ but not dividing $m$. We show that $\nu_p(\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\frac{\binom{2k}k}{m^k})$ and $\nu_p(\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\binom{n-1}{k}(-1)^k\frac{\binom{2k}k}{m^k})$ are at…

We investigate the Cesaro and Abel sums of divergent series of the form $\sum_{n\geq 0} a_n T^nP(x)$, where $P$ is a real polynomial and $T$ is a translation invariant operator on the space of real polynomials.

The twisted $T$-adic exponential sum associated to $x^{d}+\lambda x$ is studied. If $\lambda\neq0,$ then an explicit arithmetic polygon is proved to be the Newton polygon of the twisted $C$-function of the T-adic exponential sum. It gives…

In this article, we consider the estimation of exponential sums along the points of the reduction mod $p^{m}$ of a $p$-adic analytic submanifold of $ \mathbb{Z}_{p}^{n}$. More precisely, we extend Igusa's stationary phase method to this…

We begin with the observation that the signed generalized Stirling polynomials $P_k(m,x)$, which occur in a generalization of Malmsten's integral, reduce to the falling factorials when $k=m$. The structure of these generalized Stirling…

A sequence of rational numbers as a generalization of the sequence of Bernoulli numbers is introduced. Sums of products involving the terms of this generalized sequence are then obtained using an application of the Fa\`a di Bruno's formula.…

We prove two transformations for the $p$-adic hypergeometric series which can be described as $p$-adic analogues of a Kummer's linear transformation and a transformation of Clausen. We first evaluate two character sums, and then relate them…

This article extends our previous study on the summatory behavior of Euler's totient function $\varphi(n)$. We investigate two complementary restricted sums, $\Upsilon(x,p)=\sum_{\substack{k\le x\\\gcd(k,p)=1}}\varphi(k)$ and…

We derive the P-finite recurrences for classes of sequences with ordinary generating function containing roots of polynomials. The focus is on establishing the D-finite differential equations such that the familiar steps of reducing their…

Given a prime $p$, and $v_p(a)$ stand for the $p$-adic valuation of the element $a$ in a finite extension $K$ of $\mathbf{Q}_p$, or more generally the field $\mathbf{C}_p$ which is the complete field of the algebraic closure $\mathbf{Q}_p$…

We draw attention to simplifications in the theory of a N\"orlund summation method $(N, p)$ that arise when the series $\sum_{n \geqslant 0} p_n$ is convergent.

Arthur Cohn's irreducibility criterion for polynomials with integer coefficients and its generalization connect primes to irreducibles, and integral bases to the variable $x$. As we follow this link, we find that these polynomials are ready…

A generalization of the classical Lipschitz summation formula is proposed. It involves new polylogarithmic rational functions constructed via the Fourier expansion of certain sequences of Bernoulli--type polynomials. Related families of…

For any positive integer $n$ and variables $a$ and $x$ we define the generalized Legendre polynomial $P_n(a,x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\b ak\b{-1-a}k(\frac{1-x}2)^k$. Let $p$ be an odd prime. In the paper we prove many congruences modulo $p^2$ related…

In this paper we study some sophisticated supercongruences involving dual sequences. For $n=0,1,2,\ldots$ define $$d_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk\binom xk2^k$$ and $$s_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk\binom xk\binom{x+k}k=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom…

Let $<\P > \subset \N$ be a multiplicative subsemigroup of the natural numbers $\N = \{1,2,3,...\}$ generated by an arbitrary set $\P$ of primes (finite or infinite). We given an elementary proof that the partial sums $\sum_{n \in < \P >: n…

Let A be a class of objects, equipped with an integer size such that for all n the number a(n) of objects of size n is finite. We are interested in the case where the generating fucntion sum_n a(n) t^n is rational, or more generally…
