In the paper, the authors discover an integral representation, some inequalities, and complete monotonicity of Bernoulli numbers of the second kind.
For integer $k \geq 0$, let $S_k$ denote the sum of the $k$th powers of the first $n$ positive integers $1^k + 2^k + \cdots + n^k$. For any given $k$, the power sum $S_k$ can in principle be determined by differentiating $k$ times (with…
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…
This is a collection of definitions, notations and proofs for the Bernoulli numbers $B_n$ appearing in formulas for the sum of integer powers, some of which can be found scattered in the large related historical literature in French,…
In this work, a generalization of the well known Bernoulli inequality is obtained by using the theory of discrete fractional calculus. As far as we know our approach is novel.
A birthday surprise is the event that, given k uniformly random samples from a sample space of size n, at least two of them are identical. We show that Bernoulli numbers can be used to derive arbitrarily exact bounds on the probability of a…
In this paper, we consider the poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials of the second kind and presents new and explicit formulae for calculating the poly-Bernoulli numbers of the second kind and the Stirling numbers of the second kind.
By using the generalized Bernoulli numbers, we deduce new integral representations for the Riemann zeta function at positive odd-integer arguments. The explicit expressions enable us to obtain criteria for the dimension of the vector space…
We show that each member of a doubly infinite sequence of highly nonlinear expressions of Bernoulli polynomials, which can be seen as linear combinations of certain higher-order convolutions, is a multiple of a specific product of linear…

We introduce a series of numbers which serve as a generalization of Bernoulli, Euler numbers and binomial coefficients. Their properties are applied to solve a probability problem and suggest a statistical test for independence and…
In this paper we present a new mathematical conception based on a new method for ordering the integers. The method relies on the assumption that negative numbers are beyond infinity, which goes back to Wallis and Euler. We also present a…
A sequence inverse relationship can be defined by a pair of infinite inverse matrices. If the pair of matrices are the same, they define a dual relationship. Here presented is a unified approach to construct dual relationships via…
We establish supercongruences for two kinds of Ap\'ery-like numbers, which involve Bernoulli numbers and Bernoulli polynomials. Conjectural supercongruences of the same type for another four kinds of Ap\'ery-like numbers are also proposed.
This paper is devoted to establishing several new formulas relating Bernoulli and Stirling numbers of both kinds.
It is known that the special values of multiple zeta functions at non-positive arguments are indeterminate in most cases due to the occurrences of infinitely many singularities. In order to give a suitable rigorous meaning of the special…
In the present paper we generalize the Eulerian numbers (also of the second and third orders). The generalization is connected with an autonomous first-order differential equation, solutions of which are used to obtain integral…
Mathematicians has been trying to prove the weak Goldbach's conjecture by adding prime numbers, as stated in the conjecture. However, we believe that the solution does not need to be analytically solved. Instead of trying to add prime…
The purpose of this paper is to give some new identities for the Bernoulli, the Euler and the Genocchi numbers and polynomials.
The distribution of the spectral numbers of an isolated hypersurface singularity is studied in terms of the Bernoulli moments. These are certain rational linear combinations of the higher moments of the spectral numbers. They are related to…
