For any positive integer r, the r-associated Stirling number of the second kind enumerates the number of partitions of the set{1,2,3,...,n} into k non-empty disjoint subsets such that each subset contains at least r elements. We introduce…
We introduce a new sequence of unsigned degenerate Stirling numbers of the first kind. Following the work of Adell-Lekuona, who represented unsigned Stirling numbers of the first kind as multiples of the expectations of specific random…
In this paper we give simple expressions, involving binomials coefficients, for the value of $c(n,k)$ modulo $p^{v_p(n)}$, when $v_p(n) > 0$. Here $c(n,k)$ denotes a Stirling number of the first kind, and $v_p(n)$ is the highest power of…
This work is meant to demonstrate new class of prime numbers -- cyclic prime numbers, that can be derived from any prime number at certain numeric systems. Cyclic prime numbers are also related to the cyclic numbers and full reptend prime…
Let P be the set of the sequence of polynomials of degree n. The aim of this paper is to study the Stirling numbers of the second kind associated with P and of the first kind associated with P, in a unified and systematic way with the help…
We introduce new refinements of the Bell, factorial, and unsigned Stirling numbers of the first and second kind that unite the derangement, involution, associated factorial, associated Bell, incomplete Stirling, restricted factorial,…
We define a sequence of positive integers recursively, where each term is determined as follows: starting with a given positive integer, if the term is odd, the next is the sum of its positive divisors; if the term is even, the subsequent…
We introduce the $B$-Stirling numbers of the first and second kind, which are the coefficients of the potential polynomials when we express them in terms of the monomials and the falling factorials, respectively. These numbers include, as…
We find asymptotics for $S_{K,c}(x)$, the number of positive integers below $x$ whose number of prime factors is $c \; \mathrm{mod}\; K$. We study this question in the context of Beurling integers.
We derive new formulas for the number of unordered (distinct) factorizations with $k$ parts of a positive integer $n$ as sums over the partitions of $k$ and an auxiliary function, the number of partitions of the prime exponents of $n$,…
An integer sequence that is defined by initial values and a linear recurrence with constant integer coefficients, can be represented by the difference of two arithmetic terms containing exponentiation. All constants occuring in the term are…
We provide a novel computer-assisted technique for systematically analyzing first-order methods for optimization. In contrast with previous works, the approach is particularly suited for handling sublinear convergence rates and stochastic…
It is known that the $S(n,k)$ Stirling numbers as well as the ordered Stirling numbers $k!S(n,k)$ form log-concave sequences. Although in the first case there are many estimations about the mode, for the ordered Stirling numbers such…
In this note we describe a method for finding prime numbers as fixed points of particularly simple sequences. Some basic calculations show that success rates for identifying primes this way are over 99.9%. In particular, it seems that the…
We construct a new parametrization of double sequences $\{A_{n,k}(s)\}_{n,k}$ between $A_{n,k}(0)= \binom{n-1}{k-1}$ and $A_{n,k}(1)= \frac{1}{n!}\stirl{n}{k}$, where $\stirl{n}{k}$ are the unsigned Stirling numbers of the first kind. For…
We give explicit expressions for higher order convolutions of Cauchy numbers, either as one single integral or in terms of the Stirling numbers of the first and second kinds.
We describe proofs of the standard generating formulas for unsigned and signed Stirling numbers of the first kind that follow from a natural combinatorial interpretation based on cycle-colored permutations.
