Combining the "method of restriction equations" of Rim\'anyi et al. with the techniques of symmetric functions, we establish the Schur function expansions of the Thom polynomials for the Morin singularities $A_3: ({\bf C}^{\bullet},0)\to…

We define a function of two real vectors by a certain homogeneous quotient involving power sums, and show that its supremum grows asymptotically linearly w.r.t. the dimension. From this, we deduce a condition under which a parametric set of…

Tuenter [Fibonacci Quarterly 40 (2002), 175-180] and other authors have considered centred binomial sums of the form \[S_r(n) = \sum_k \binom{2n}{k}|n-k|^r,\] where $r$ and $n$ are non-negative integers. We consider sums of the form…

For non-negative integers $a,b,$ and $n$, let $N(a, b; n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ as a sum of squares with coefficients $1$ or $3$ ($a$ of ones and $b$ of threes). Let $N^*(a,b; n)$ be the number of representations of $n$…

For integer $m, p,$ we study tangent power sum $\sum^m_{k=1}\tan^{2p}\frac{\pi k}{2m+1}.$ We prove that, for every $m, p,$ it is integer, and, for a fixed p, it is a polynomial in $m$ of degree $2p.$ We give recurrent, asymptotical and…

We use the resolution of singularities algorithm of [G4] to provide new estimates for exponential sums as well as new bounds on how often a function f(x) such as a polynomial with integer coefficients is divisible by various powers of a…

We examine the behavior of the coefficients of powers of polynomials over a finite field of prime order. Extending the work of Allouche-Berthe, 1997, we study a(n), the number of occurring strings of length n among coefficients of any power…

In this paper, we present a new real-valued Appell-type polynomial family $A_n^{(k)}(m,x), $ every member of which is expressed by mean of a generalized hypergeometric function. The generating exponential function of this type of…

For $k\geqslant 1$, denote by $p_k(n)$ the number of partitions of an integer $n$ into $k$-th powers. In this note, we apply the saddle-point method to provide a new proof for the well-known asymptotic expansion of $p_k(n)$. This approach…

In this paper we construct a generating polynomial over the rationals for the generic Newton polygon for the L function of exponential sums of the family of f = x^d+ a x^s parameterized by a, and prove some of its key properties. The…

We consider sums of the form \[\sum_{j=0}^{n-1}F_1(a_1n+b_1j+c_1)F_2(a_2n+b_2j+c_2)... F_k(a_kn+b_kj+c_k),\] in which each $\{F_i(n)\}$ is a sequence that satisfies a linear recurrence of degree $D(i)<\infty$, with constant coefficients. We…

The purpose of this paper is to generalize this relation of symmetry between the power sum polynomials and the generalized Euler polynomials to the relation between the power sum polynomials and the generalized higher-order Euler…

Sylvester showed that the partition function can be written as a sum of the polynomial term and quasiperiodic components called the Sylvester waves. Recently an explicit expression of the Sylvester wave as a finite sum over the Bernoulli…

Balancing numbers possess, as Fibonacci numbers, a Binet formula. Using this, partial sums of arbitrary powers of balancing numbers can be summed explicitly. For this, as a first step, a power $B_n^l$ is expressed as a linear combination of…

The notion of a descent polynomial, a function in enumerative combinatorics that counts permutations with specific properties, enjoys a revived recent research interest due to its connection with other important notions in combinatorics,…

We consider properties of the box polynomials, a one variable polynomial defined over all integer partitions $\lambda$ whose Young diagrams fit in an $m$ by $n$ box. We show that these polynomials can be expressed by the finite difference…

The variety of sums of powers of a homogeneous polynomial of degree d in n variables is defined and investigated in some examples, old and new. These varieties are studied via apolarity and syzygies. Classical results of Sylvester (1851),…

We propose an explicit representation of central $(2k+1)$-nomial coefficients in terms of finite sums over trigonometric constructs. The approach utilizes the diagonalization of circulant boolean matrices and is generalizable to all…

For a fixed integer $k \ge 0$, consider representations of positive integers as sums of binomial coefficients of the form $\binom{n}{k}$. While exact minimal bounds for the number of required summands are known only in a few low-dimensional…
