In this paper, we study the degenerate derangement polynomials and numbers, investigate some properties of those polynomials and numbers and explore their connections with the degenerate gamma distributions. In more detail, we derive their…
Exponentiating the hypergeometric series gives a recursion relation for integer sequences which are generalizations of conventional Bell numbers. The corresponding associated Stirling numbers of the second kind are also generated and…
The aim of this paper is to introduce Bell polynomials and numbers of the second kind and poly-Bell polynomials and numbers of the second kind, and to derive their explicit expressions, recurrence relations and some identities involving…
We derive closed formulas for the number of $k$-coloured partitions and the number of plane partitions of $n$ in terms of the Bell polynomials.
In this paper, we study classes of subexcedant functions enumerated by the Bell numbers and present bijections on set partitions. We present a set of permutations whose transposition arrays are the restricted growth functions, thus defining…
In this paper, we study degenerate ordered Bell polynomials with the viewpoint of Carlitz's degenerate Bernoulli and Euler polynomials and derive by using umbral calculus some properties and new identities for the degenerate ordered Bell…
The generating function for the number of purely crossing partitions of {1,...,n} is found in terms of the generating function for Bell numbers. Further results about generating functions for asymptotic moments of certain random Vandermonde…
In combinatorics, a derangement is a permutation of the elements of a set, such that no element appears in its original position. The number of derangement of an n-element set is called the nth derangement number. Recently, the degenerate…
For the Stirling numbers of the second kind $S(n,k)$ and the ordered Bell numbers $B(n)$, we prove the identity $\sum_{k=1}^{n/2} S(n,2k)(2k-1)! = B(n-1)$. An analogous identity holds for the sum over odd $k$'s.
The Stirling number of the second kind $n\brace k$ counts the number of ways to partition a set of $n$ labeled balls into $k$ non-empty unlabeled cells. As an extension of this, we consider $b_1+b_2+\ldots+b_n$ balls with $b_1$ balls…
Set partitions and permutations with restrictions on the size of the blocks and cycles are important combinatorial sequences. Counting these objects lead to the sequences generalizing the classical Stirling and Bell numbers. The main focus…
The normal ordering of an integral power of the number operator in terms of boson operators is expressed with the help of the Stirling numbers of the second kind. As a `degenerate version' of this, we consider the normal ordering of a…
A class of self-similar sets of entangled quantum states is introduced, for which a recursive definition is provided. These sets, the "Bell gems," are defined by the subsystem exchange symmetry characteristic of the Bell states. Each Bell…
Let $\alpha=\{a_1,a_2,a_3,...,a_n\}$ be a set of elements, $\delta < n$ be a non-negative integer, and $\Gamma: \alpha \to \{0, 1, 2, ..., n\}$ be a total mapping. Then, we call $\Gamma$ a \emph{partition} of $\alpha$ if and only if for all…
Many authors have recently studied the degenerate harmonic numbers. This paper makes two main contributions. First, we derive several explicit expressions for these numbers, which are a degenerate version of the ordinary harmonic numbers.…
Let $p_n$ be the number of partitions of an integer $n$. For each of the partition statistics of counting their parts, ranks, or cranks, there is a natural family of integer polynomials. We investigate their asymptotics and the limiting…
M. E. Cesaro (1885) gave a quite remarkable expression for the Bell number --the number of partitions of an n-element set -- as a definite integral. This note is an exposition, correcting a typographical error in the original.
In this paper, we study the degenerate central complete and incomplete Bell polynomials which are degenerate versions of the recently introduced central complete and incomplete Bell polynomials and also central analogues for the degenerate…
The nth r-extended Lah-Bell number is defined as the number of ways a set with $n+r$ elements can be partitioned into ordered blocks such that r distinguished elements have to be in distinct ordered blocks. The aim of this paper is to…
When one inserts a number of identical bars in between blocks of an ordered set partition, they get a barred preferential arrangement. In this study we define a new generalization of barred preferential arrangements, by considering barred…
