We consider the Hankel determinant and orthogonal polynomials with respect to the deformed Laguerre weight $w(x; t) = {x^\alpha }{\mathrm e^{ - x}}{(x + t)^\lambda },\; x\in \mathbb{R}^{+} $ with parameters $\alpha > -1,\; t > 0$ and…

In this paper, we use the tools of Gr\"{o}bner bases and combinatorial secant varieties to study the determinantal ideals $I_t$ of the extended Hankel matrices. Denote by $c$-chain a sequence $a_1,\...,a_k$ with $a_i+c<a_{i+1}$ for all…

Recently I. Mezo studied a simple but interesting generalization of the exponential polynomials. In this note I consider two q-analogues of these polynomials and compute their Hankel determinants.

We analyze a weighted convolution of Catalan numbers $$ \sum_{k=0}^{n} \binom{2k}{k}\binom{2(n-k)}{n-k} a^k = \sum_{k=0}^{n} (k+1)(n-k+1) C_k C_{n-k} a^k, $$ emphasizing its combinatorial, analytic, and probabilistic aspects. We derive a…

In this paper we introduce a class of determinants "of Hankel type". We use them to compute certain remarkable families of Drinfeld quasi-modular forms.

After a short survey about Schroeder numbers and some generalizations which I call Schroeder-like numbers I study some q-analogues which have simple Hankel determinants.

We provide an involution proof of a Catalan-tangent number identity arising from the study of peak algebra that was found by Aliniaeifard and Li. In the course, we find a new combinatorial identity for the tangent numbers $T_{2n+1}$: $$…

In this paper we improve the bounds of the third order Hankel determinant for two classes of univalent functions with bounded turning. The bounds are not sharp, but the sharp ones are conjectured.

In this note we use the analogy between the Catalan sequence and the Rueppel sequence to derive a variety of conjectures surrounding the Hankel transforms of a number of sequences closely related to the Rueppel sequence. Use is made of the…

In the present paper, we will discuss the Hankel determinants $H(f) =a_2a_4-a_3^2$ of order 2 for normalized concave functions $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\dots$ with a pole at $p\in(0,1).$ Here, a meromorphic function is called concave if it…

We study the Hankel determinant generated by a singularly perturbed Jacobi weight $$ w(x,t):=(1-x^2)^\alpha\mathrm{e}^{-\frac{t}{x^{2}}},\;\;\;\;\;\;x\in[-1,1],\;\;\alpha>0,\;\;t\geq 0. $$ If $t=0$, it is reduced to the classical symmetric…

We prove a combinatorial identity relating Catalan numbers to tangent numbers arising from the study of peak algebra that was conjectured by Aliniaeifard and Li. This identity leads to the discovery of the intriguing identity $$…

We know [Rui Duarte and Ant\'onio Guedes de Oliveira, New developments of an old identity, manuscript arXiv:1203.5424, submitted.] that, for every non-negative integer numbers $n,i,j$ and for every real number $\ell$, $$ \sum_{i+j=n}…
