Let $\gamma_n$ ($n\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge0}$) be a sequence of complex numbers, which is tame: $0<\exists u\le \gamma_{n-1}/\gamma_n \le \exists v<\infty$ for all $n>0$. We show a resonance between the singularities of the function of the power…

Two theorems of elmentary arithmetic, one stating that the sum of the reciprocals of any number of consecutive positive integers is never an integer, and a generalization thereof by Trygve Nagell, are shown to be provable inside a very weak…

Many combinatorial matrices --- such as those of binomial coefficients, Stirling numbers of both kinds, and Lah numbers --- are known to be totally non-negative, meaning that all minors (determinants of square submatrices) are non-negative.…

In this paper, we apply the power-partible reduction to study arithmetic properties of sums involving Delannoy numbers $D_k$ and polynomials $D_k(z)$. Let $v\in\bN$ and $p$ be an odd prime. It is proved that, for any…

Given an arbitrary sequence $(\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_n) \in \mathbb{C}^n$, we show that the degree-$n$ truncation of the formal exponential $\exp\bigl(-\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{\alpha_k}{k} x^k\bigr)$ produces a polynomial whose roots…

As was initially shown by Brent, exponentials of truncated power series can be computed using a constant number of polynomial multiplications. This note gives a relatively simple algorithm with a low constant factor.

An Engel series is a sum of reciprocals of a non-decreasing sequence $(x_n)$ of positive integers, which is such that each term is divisible by the previous one, and a Pierce series is an alternating sum of the reciprocals of a sequence…
