This paper is a study of power series, where the coefficients are binomial expressions (iterated finite differences). Our results can be used for series summation, for series transformation, or for asymptotic expansions involving Stirling…

We derive the algebraic relations of alternating and non-alternating finite harmonic sums up to the sums of depth~6. All relations for the sums up to weight~6 are given in explicit form. These relations depend on the structure of the index…

We develop new polynomial methods for studying systems of word equations. We use them to improve some earlier results and to analyze how sizes of systems of word equations satisfying certain independence properties depend on the lengths of…

Modifying an idea of E. Brietzke we give simple proofs for the recurrence relations of some sequences of binomial sums which have previously been obtained by other more complicated methods.

It is shown that some q-analogues of the Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials lead to q-analogues of the Chebyshev polynomials which retain most of their elementary properties.

In this paper, we define Tribonacci-Lucas polynomials and present Tribonacci-Lucas numbers and polynomials as a binomial sum. Then, we introduce incomplete Tribonacci-Lucas numbers and polynomials. In addition we derive recurrence…

We derive a formula for the evaluation of weighted generalized Fibonacci sums of the type $S_k^n (w,r) = \sum_{j = 0}^k {w^j j^r G_j{}^n }$. Several explicit evaluations are presented as examples.

An overlooked formula of E. Lucas for the generalized Bernoulli numbers is proved using generating functions. This is then used to provide a new proof and a new form of a sum involving classical Bernoulli numbers studied by K. Dilcher. The…

Binomial Cayley graphs are obtained by considering the binomial coefficient of the weight function of a given Cayley graph and a natural number. We introduce these objects and study two families: one associated with symmetric groups and the…

We establish new connection formulae between Fibonacci polynomials and Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second kinds. These formulae are expressed in terms of certain values of hypergeometric functions of the type 2F1. Consequently,…

We evaluate some new three parameter families of finite reciprocal sums involving Horadam numbers. We will also be able to state the results for the infinite sums. Some Fibonacci and Lucas sums will be presented as examples.

In this paper one extends the binomial and trinomial coefficients to the concept of 'k-nomial' coefficients, and one obtains some properties of these. As an application one generalizes Pascal's triangle.

Using known entropic and information inequalities new inequalities for some classical polynomials are obtained. Examples of Jacobi and Legendre polynomials are considered.

In this article, we present a trick around Fibonacci numbers which can be found in several magic books. It consists in computing quickly the sum of the successive terms of a Fibonacci-like sequence. We give explanations and extensions of…

We study matrices which transform the sequence of Fibonacci or Lucas polynomials with even index to those with odd index and vice versa. They turn out to be intimately related to generalized Stirling numbers and to Bernoulli, Genocchi and…

We present several types of ordinary generating functions involving central binomial coefficients, harmonic numbers, and odd harmonic numbers. Our results complement those of Boyadzhiev from 2012 and Chen from 2016. Based on these…

We describe fast algorithms for approximating the connection coefficients between a family of orthogonal polynomials and another family with a polynomially or rationally modified measure. The connection coefficients are computed via…

In these introductory lectures we discuss classes of presently known nested sums, associated iterated integrals, and special constants which hierarchically appear in the evaluation of massless and massive Feynman diagrams at higher loops.…

In this work, by using Pauli matrices, we introduce four families of polynomials indexed over the positive integers. These polynomials have rational or imaginary rational coefficients. It turns out that two of these families are closely…
