A classical theorem of Kempner states that the sum of the reciprocals of positive integers with missing decimal digits converges. This result is extended to much larger families of "missing digits" sets of positive integers with both…

We present a lovely connection between the Fibonacci numbers and the sums of inverses of $(0,1)-$ triangular matrices, namely, a number $S$ is the sum of the entries of the inverse of an $n \times n$ $(n \geq 3)$ $(0,1)-$ triangular matrix…

Let $[x]$ be the integral part of $x$, $n>1$ be a positive integer and $\chi_n$ denote the trivial Dirichlet character modulo $n$. In this paper, we use an identity established by Z. H. Sun to get congruences of…

Let $n,k,a$ and $c$ be positive integers and $b$ be a nonnegative integer. Let $\nu_2(k)$ and $s_2(k)$ be the 2-adic valuation of $k$ and the sum of binary digits of $k$, respectively. Let $S(n,k)$ be the Stirling number of the second kind.…

The harmonic numbers are the sequence 1, 1+1/2, 1+1/2+1/3, ... Their asymptotic difference from the sequence of the natural logarithm of the positive integers is Euler's constant gamma. We define a family of natural generalizations of the…

Using Reiner's definition of Stirling numbers of the second kind in types $B$ and $D$, we generalize two well-known identities concerning the classical Stirling numbers of the second kind. The first identity relates them with Eulerian…

It is known that the $S(n,k)$ Stirling numbers as well as the ordered Stirling numbers $k!S(n,k)$ form log-concave sequences. Although in the first case there are many estimations about the mode, for the ordered Stirling numbers such…

We establish two new Waring--Goldbach type representations: every sufficiently large odd integer $n$ can be expressed as \[ n = p_1^2 + p_2^2 + p_3^3 + p_4^3 + p_5^5 + p_6^6 + p_7^c, \] where each $p_i$ is prime and $c \in \{6,7\}$.

This paper presents a new generalization of the Genocchi numbers and the Genocchi theorem. As consequences, we obtain some important families of integer-valued polynomials those are closely related to the Bernoulli polynomials. Denoting by…

We investigate the average number of representations of a positive integer as the sum of $k + 1$ perfect $k$-th powers of primes. We extend recent results of Languasco and the last Author, which dealt with the case $k = 2$ [6] and $k = 3$…

The first aim of this paper is to construct new generating functions for the generalized {\lambda}-Stirling type numbers of the second kind, generalized array type polynomials and generalized Eulerian type polynomials and numbers, attached…

Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers. We denote by $v_2(n)$ the 2-adic valuation of $n$. The Stirling numbers of the first kind, denoted by $s(n,k)$, counts the number of permutations of $n$ elements with $k$ disjoint cycles. In recent…

We introduce the degenerate Bernoulli numbers of the second kind as a degenerate version of the Bernoulli numbers of the second kind. We derive a family of nonlinear differential equations satisfied by a function closely related to the…

We give some theoretical and computational results on "random" harmonic sums with prime numbers, and more generally, for integers with a fixed number of prime factors.

We pose 100 new conjectures on representations involving primes or related things, which might interest number theorists and stimulate further research. Below are five typical examples: (i) For any positive integer $n$, there exists…

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 study inverse factorial series and their relation to Stirling numbers of the first kind. We prove a special representation of the polylogarithm function in terms of series with such numbers. Using various identities for Stirling numbers…

Associated to each random variable $Y$ having a finite moment generating function, we introduce a different generalization of the Stirling numbers of the second kind. Some characterizations and specific examples of such generalized numbers…

The aim of this note is to provide a simple proof of some well-known identities and recurrences relating classical Bernoulli and Euler numbers by using the Abel sum of the divergent series $\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^{n} (n+1)^k$, $k$ a…

By defining the dimension of natural numbers as the number of prime factors, all natural numbers smaller than 2^(n+1) (n is a natural number) can be classified by their dimensions, and the count of numbers of each dimension gives a…
