In this paper we give a new formula for the $n$-th power of a $2\times2$ matrix. More precisely, we prove the following: Let $A= \left ( \begin{matrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{matrix} \right )$ be an arbitrary $2\times2$ matrix, $T=a+d$ its…
In this paper we establish plenty of number theoretic and combinatoric identities involving generalized Bernoulli and Stirling numbers of both kinds. These formulas are deduced from Pascal type matrix representations of Bernoulli and…
We present a proof of a combinatorial conjecture from the second author's Ph.D. thesis. The proof relies on binomial and multinomial sums identities. We also discuss the relevance of the conjecture in the context of PAC-Bayesian machine…
In this paper, we consider an analogue of Catalan polynomials and give some identities of symmetry for those polynomials by using fermionic $p$-adic integrals on the ring of $p$-adic integers
We propose and recursively prove polynomial identities which imply Capparelli's partition theorems. We also find perfect companions to the results of Andrews, and Alladi, Andrews and Gordon involving $q$-trinomial coefficients. We follow…
We introduce the three-Catalan triangle, highlighting the three-Catalan numbers along with their recurrence relation and combinatorial interpretation, which allows us to establish their log-convexity. Additionally, we prove that the rows of…
In this note we show that the apolar cubic forms associated to codimension two linear sections of canonical curves of genus at least eleven are special with respect to their presentation as sums of cubes.
In this paper, we investigate the weighted Catalan, Motzkin and Schr\"oder numbers together with the corresponding weighted paths. The relation between these numbers is illustrated by three equations, which also lead to some known and new…
In this note, we show how a combinatorial identity of Frisch can be applied to prove and generalize some well-known identities involving harmonic numbers. We also present some combinatorial identities involving odd harmonic numbers which…

We use the inversion of coefficient arrays to define dual polynomials to the Fibonacci and Catalan-Fibonacci polynomials, and we explore the properties of these new polynomials sequences. Many of the arrays involved are Riordan arrays.…
The $(q,r)$-Whitney numbers were recently defined in terms of the $q$-Boson operators, and several combinatorial properties which appear to be $q$-analogues of similar properties were studied. In this paper, we obtain elementary and…
We summarize some combinatoric problems solved by the higher Catalan numbers. These problems are generalizations of the combinatoric problems solved by the Catalan numbers. The generating function of the higher Catalan numbers appeared…
It is well known that the Catalan number C_n counts dissections of a regular (n+2)-gon into triangles. Here we count such dissections by number of triangles that contain two sides of the polygon among their three edges, leading to a…
In this paper, dual complex Pell numbers and quaternions are defined. Also, some algebraic properties of dual-complex Pell numbers and quaternions which are connected with dual complex numbers and Pell numbers are investigated. Furthermore,…
In this paper, we study arithmetic properties of weighted Catalan numbers. Previously, Postnikov and Sagan found conditions under which the $2$-adic valuations of the weighted Catalan numbers are equal to the $2$-adic valutations of the…
The \emph{$q,t$-Catalan numbers} $C_n(q,t)$ are polynomials in $q$ and $t$ that reduce to the ordinary Catalan numbers when $q=t=1$. These polynomials have important connections to representation theory, algebraic geometry, and symmetric…

We use a q-series identity by Ramanujan to give a combinatorial interpretation of Ramanujan's tau function which involves t-cores and a new class of partitions which we call (m,k)-capsids. The same method can be applied in conjunction with…
When searching for Calabi.Yau differential equations, often different formulas for the coefficients give the same differential equation. The coefficients are usually sums (simple, double or triple) of products of binomial coefficients. This…
