In this paper we solve combinatorial and algebraic problems associated with a multivariate identity first considered by S. Sherman wich he called an analog to the Witt identity. We extend previous results obtained for the univariante case.
The Capelli identities claim $det(A)det(B) = det(AB+correction)$ for certain matrices with noncommutative entries. They have applications in representation theory and integrable systems. We propose new examples of these identities,…

We prove some combinatorial identities using the Polya urn and the closely related Hoppe urn.
We derive several identities that feature irreducible characters of the general linear, the symplectic, the orthogonal, and the special orthogonal groups. All the identities feature characters that are indexed by shapes that are "nearly"…
We present a differential-calculus-based method which allows one to derive more identities from {\it any} given Fibonacci-Lucas identity containing a finite number of terms and having at least one free index. The method has two {\it…

Sylvester's identity is a classical determinantal identity with a straightforward linear algebra proof. We present a new, combinatorial proof of the identity, prove several non-commutative versions, and find a $\beta$-extension that is both…
We consider a new identity involving integrals and sums of Bessel functions. The identity provides new ways to evaluate integrals of products of two Bessel functions. The identity is remarkably simple and powerful since the summand and…
We present a simple iteration for the Lebesgue identity on partitions, which leads to a refinement involving the alternating sums of partitions.
We present some Pfaffian identities, which are completely different from the Pl\"ucker relations. As consequences we obtain a quadratic identity for the number of perfect matchings of plane graphs, which has a simpler form than the formula…
A surprising simple result about quadrilaterals is given as an application of the vector triple product identity.
We give a simple statistical proof of a binomial identity, by evaluating the Laplace transform of the maximum of n independent exponential random variables in two different ways. As a by product, we obtain a simple proof of an interesting…
We provide bijective proofs of two classic identities that are very simple to prove using generating functions, but surprisingly difficult to prove combinatorially. The problem of finding a bijective proof for the first identity was first…
We give an identity which is conjectured and proved by using an implementation in Multi-WZ.
We generalize Menon's identity by considering sums representing arithmetical functions of several variables. As an application, we give a formula for the number of cyclic subgroups of the direct product of several cyclic groups of arbitrary…
We provide a natural duality that matches, in reverse order, the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of the Maurer-Cartan of the Wronskian matrix with the coefficients of the original differential equation. Abel's identity is…
We introduce the notion of a probabilistic identity of a residually finite group. We prove that a finitely generated linear group satisfies a probabilistic identity if and only if it is virtually solvable. As an application, we prove a…
In this note we give a generalization of the well-known Menon's identity. This is based on applying the Burnside's lemma to a certain group action.
Using a probabilistic approach, we derive some interesting combinatorial identities involving gamma and beta functions. These results generalize certain well-known combinatorial identities involving binomial coefficients and special…
