Some class of sums which naturally include the sums of powers of integers is considered. A number of conjectures concerning a representation of these sums is made.

We consider the task of estimating the trace of a matrix function, ${\rm tr}(f({\bf A}))$, of a large symmetric positive semi-definite matrix ${\bf A}$. This problem arises in multiple applications, including kernel methods and inverse…
Up-down permutations are counted by tangent resp. secant numbers. Considering words instead, where the letters are produced by independent geometric distributions, there are several ways of introducing this concept; in the limit they all…
Multiple zeta values (MZVs, also called Euler sums or multiple harmonic series) are nested generalizations of the classical Riemann zeta function evaluated at integer values. The fact that an integral representation of MZVs obeys a shuffle…
We examine "partition zeta functions" analogous to the Riemann zeta function but summed over subsets of integer partitions. We prove an explicit formula for a family of partition zeta functions already shown to have nice properties -- those…

We obtain new trigonometric identities, which are some product-to-sum type formulas for the higher derivative of the cotangent and cosecant functions. Further, from specializations of our formulas, we derive not only various known…
In this paper we investigate a certain category of cotangent sums and more specifically the sum $$\sum_{m=1}^{b-1}\cot\left(\frac{\pi m}{b}\right)\sin^{3}\left(2\pi m\frac{a}{b}\right)\:$$ and associate the distribution of its values to a…
The aim of this paper is to study linear preservers of the trace of Kronecker sums and their connection with preservers of determinants of Kronecker products. The partial trace and partial determinant play a fundamental role in…
In the following short paper we list some useful results concerning determinants and inverses of matrices. First we show, how to calculate determinants of $d \times d$ matrices, if their traces are known. As a next step $4 \times 4$…
Partially commutative monoids provide a powerful tool to study graphs, viewingwalks as words whose letters, the edges of the graph, obey a specific commutation rule. A particularclass of traces emerges from this framework, the hikes, whose…
