In this paper we extend the notion of Melham sum to the Pell and Pell-Lucas sequences. While the proofs of general statements rely on the binomial theorem, we prove some spacial cases by the known Pell identities. We also give extensions of…
The trinomial transform of a sequence is a generalization of the well-known binomial transform, replacing binomial coefficients with trinomial coefficients. We examine Pascal-like triangles under trinomial transform, focusing on the ternary…
This paper systematically develops a notion of regular sequences in the context of $R$-linear triangulated categories for a graded-commutative ring $R$. The notion has equivalent characterizations involving Koszul objects and local…
We introduce analogues of Soergel bimodules for complex reflection groups of rank one. We give an explicit parametrization of the indecomposable objects of the resulting category and give a presentation of its split Grothendieck ring by…
In this paper, we study congruences on sums of products of binomial coefficients that can be proved by using properties of the Jacobi polynomials. We give special attention to polynomial congruences containing Catalan numbers, second-order…
We present an approach to generalized Riordan arrays which is based on operations in one large group of lower triangular matrices. This allows for direct proofs of many properties of weighted Sheffer sequences, and shows that all the groups…
The Catalan number sequence is one of the most famous number sequences in combinatorics and is well studied in the literature. In this paper we further investigate its fundamental properties related to the moment problem and prove for the…
The aim of this paper is to construct general forms of ordinary generating functions for special numbers and polynomials involving Fibonacci type numbers and polynomials, Lucas numbers and polynomials, Chebyshev polynomials, Sextet…
A composition of birational maps given by Laurent polynomials need not be given by Laurent polynomials; however, sometimes---quite unexpectedly---it does. We suggest a unified treatment of this phenomenon, which covers a large class of…
Inspired by the framework of operational methods and based on the generating functions of Legendre-Gould Hopper polynomials and Sheffer sequences, we discuss certain new mixed type polynomials and their important properties. We show that…
We evaluate $q$-Bessel functions at an infinite sequence of points and introduce a generalization of the Ramanujan function and give an extension of the $m$-version of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities. We also prove several generating…
We approach Riordan arrays and their generalizations via umbral symbolic methods. This new approach allows us to derive fundamental aspects of the theory of Riordan arrays as immediate consequences of the umbral version of the classical…
We consider a class of generalized binomials emerging in fractional calculus. After establishing some general properties, we focus on a particular yet relevant case, for which we provide several ready-for-use combinatorial identities,…
We prove a conjecture of Stembridge concerning stability of Kronecker coefficients that vastly generalizes Murnaghan's theorem. The main idea is to identify the sequences of Kronecker coefficients in question with Hilbert functions of…
A finitization of the Catalan numbers $ C_n $ can be defined as Euler characteristics of an algebraic structure. We conjecture the existence of a $ q $-deformed version of such structure, and provide evidence for the first two non-trivial…
In this paper we provide a way to construct new moment sequences from a given moment sequence. An operator based on multivariate positive polynomials is applied to get the new moment sequences. A class of new sequences is corresponding to a…
Using the language of Riordan arrays, we look at two related iterative processes on matrices and determine which matrices are invariant under these processes. In a special case, the invariant sequences that arise are conjectured to have…
Let $\cal R$ be either the Grothendieck semiring (semiring with multiplication) of complex algebraic varieties, or the Grothendieck ring of these varieties, or the Grothendieck ring localized by the class of the complex affine line. We…
We establish new operational formulae of Burchnall type for the complex disk polynomials (generalized Zernike polynomials). We then use them to derive some interesting identities involving these polynomials. In particular, we establish…
Hankel determinants of sequences related to Bernoulli and Euler numbers have been studied before, and numerous identities are known. However, when a sequence is shifted by one unit, the situation often changes significantly. In this paper…
