In the paper, by establishing a new and explicit formula for computing the $n$-th derivative of the reciprocal of the logarithmic function, the author presents new and explicit formulas for calculating Bernoulli numbers of the second kind…
"Goldbach's Conjecture" proven by analysis of how all combinations of the odd primes, summed in pairs, generates all of the even numbers.
In this paper, we introduce the new fully degenerate poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials and investigate some properties of these polynomials and numbers. From our properties, we derive some identities for the fully degenerate…
The Bernoulli numbers b_0,b_1,b_2,.... of the second kind are defined by \sum_{n=0}^\infty b_nt^n=\frac{t}{\log(1+t)}. In this paper, we give an explicit formula for the sum \sum_{j_1+j_2+...+j_N=n,…
This paper is concerned with the well known Jeffreys-Lindley paradox. In a Bayesian set up, the so-called paradox arises when a point null hypothesis is tested and an objective prior is sought for the alternative hypothesis. In particular,…
Carlitz has introduced q-analogues of the Bernoulli numbers around 1950. We obtain a representation of these q-Bernoulli numbers (and some shifted version) as moments of some orthogonal polynomials. This also gives factorisations of Hankel…
We establish two general identities for Bernoulli and Euler polynomials, which are of a new type and have many consequences. The most striking result in this paper is as follows: If $n$ is a positive integer, $r+s+t=n$ and $x+y+z=1$, then…
In 1999, Arakawa and Kaneko introduced a zeta function whose special values at negative integers yield the poly-Bernoulli numbers and investigated its relation to multiple zeta values. Since the poly-Bernoulli numbers appear in this…
In this note, starting with a little-known result of Kuo, I derive a recurrence relation for the Bernoulli numbers $B_{2 n}$, $n$ being any positive integer. This new recurrence seems advantageous in comparison to other known formulae since…
By extending a construction due to Gross and McMullen [2], we show that for any odd integer n and for any even integer d>n+2 there are infinitely many Salem numbers $\alpha$ of degree d such that $\alpha^n-1$ is a unit. A similar result is…
In the paper, I consider appearance of unit's digits in minor totals of a few integer sequences. The sequences include the sequence of even integers, sequence of odd integers and Faulhaber polynomial at $p = 2$. Application of difference…
In this paper, we investigate new class of sequences related to fully degenerate Bernoulli numbers and polynomials. From those sequences, we derive some formulae for the degenerate Bernoulli and Euler polynomials.
We show that for infinitely many odd integers $n$, the sum of the first $n$ nonzero Fibonacci numbers is divisible by $n$. This resolves a conjecture of Fatehizadeh and Yaqubi.
We study a special Dirichlet series studied before by Apostol and Matsuoka and specify its values at negative integers. These values are related to a certain convolution of Bernoulli numbers
In this paper, we give a short proof of a relation generalizing many identities for Bernoulli numbers.
If $N={q^k}{n^2}$ is an odd perfect number given in Eulerian form, then Sorli's conjecture predicts that $k=\nu_{q}(N)=1$. In this article, we give some further results related to this conjecture and those contained in the papers…
Back in 1755, Euler explored an interesting array of numbers that now frequently appears in polynomial identities, combinatorial problems, and finite calculus, among other places. These numbers share a strong connection with well-known…
There exists a well-known relation between the zeros of sine function, Bernoulli numbers and the Riemann Zeta function. In the present paper, we find a similar relation for zeros of q-sine function. We introduce a new q-extension of the…
Leonhard Euler likely developed his summation formula in 1732, and soon used it to estimate the sum of the reciprocal squares to 14 digits --- a value mathematicians had been competing to determine since Leibniz's astonishing discovery that…
In the paper, the authors establish an explicit formula for computing Bernoulli polynomials at non-negative integer points in terms of $r$-Stirling numbers of the second kind.
