Two decades ago, Steven Roman, Daniel E. Loeb and Gian-Carlo Rota introduced a family of harmonic numbers in their study of harmonic logarithms. We propose to refer to those numbers as {\it Roman harmonic numbers}. With the purpose of…

In this paper we consider combinatorial numbers $C_{m, k}$ for $m\ge 1$ and $k\ge 0$ which unifies the entries of the Catalan triangles $ B_{n, k}$ and $ A_{n, k}$ for appropriate values of parameters $m$ and $k$, i.e., $B_{n,…

We continue the study of positive geometries underlying the {\it Grassmannian string integrals}, which are a class of "stringy canonical forms", or stringy integrals, over the positive Grassmannian mod torus action, $G_+(k,n)/T$. The…

We present a different proof of the following identity due to Munarini, which generalizes a curious binomial identity of Simons. \begin{align*} \sum_{k=0}^{n}\binom{\alpha}{n-k}\binom{\beta+k}{k}x^k…

We construct a generalised expression for the normal ordering of (a+a^{\dagger})^{m} for integral values of m and use the result to study the quantum anharmonic oscillator problem in the Heisenberg approach. In particular, we derive…

In this paper we are interested in Euler-type sums with products of harmonic numbers, Stirling numbers and Bell numbers. We discuss the analytic representations of Euler sums through values of polylogarithm function and Riemann zeta…

We offer several new summation identities involving harmonic numbers, odd harmonic numbers, and Fibonacci numbers. Our results are derived using three different approaches: partial summation, polynomial identities and binomial…

In this paper, by introducing a new operation in the vector space of Laurent series, the author derived explicit series for the values of $\zeta$-funtion at positive integers, where $\zeta$ denotes the Riemann zeta function. The values of…

This paper develops an approach to the evaluation of quadratic Euler sums that involve harmonic numbers. The approach is based on simple integral computations of polyloga- rithms. By using the approach, we establish some relations between…

We study three functions which are power series in the variable $z$, Dirichlet series in the variable $s$ and with coefficients given by arithmetical functions. A strong point is to relate these functions to some Hilbert spaces. Three main…

In this paper, we work out some explicit formulae for double nonlinear Euler sums involving harmonic numbers and alternating harmonic numbers. As applications of these formulae, we give new closed form representations of several quadratic…

We present here a large collection of harmonic and quadratic harmonic sums, that can be useful in applied questions, e.g., probabilistic ones. We find closed-form formulae, that we were not able to locate in the literature.

We prove new exact formulas for the generalized sum-of-divisors functions, $\sigma_{\alpha}(x) := \sum_{d|x} d^{\alpha}$. The formulas for $\sigma_{\alpha}(x)$ when $\alpha \in \mathbb{C}$ is fixed and $x \geq 1$ involves a finite sum over…

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.…

For an integer $ k\geq 2 $, let $ \{F^{(k)}_{n} \}_{n\geq 0}$ be the $ k$--generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $ 0, \ldots, 0, 1 $ ($ k $ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of the $ k $ preceding terms. In this paper,…
