We develop techniques to deal with monotonicity of sequences z_{n+1}/z_n and \sqrt[n]{z_n}. A series of conjectures of Zhi-Wei Sun and of Amdeberhan et al. are verified in certain unified approaches.
In this paper, we study the theory of the harmonic and the hyperharmonic Fibonacci numbers. Also, we get some combinatoric identities like as harmonic and hyperharmonic numbers and we obtain some useful formulas for $\mathbb{F}_{n}$, which…
We introduce notions of bi-unitary, bi*-unitary and bi**-unitary harmonic numbers, along with their preliminary study.
The classical hypergeometric summation theorems are exploited to derive several striking identities on harmonic numbers including those discovered recently by Paule and Schneider (2003).
We give a brief history of transcendental number theory, including Schanuel's conjecture (S). Assuming (S), we prove that if z and w are complex numbers, not 0 or 1, with z^w and w^z algebraic, then z and w are either both rational or both…
The harmonic numbers $H_n=\sum_{0<k\le n}1/k\ (n=0,1,2,\ldots)$ play important roles in mathematics. Let $p>3$ be a prime. With helps of some combinatorial identities, we establish the following two new congruences:…
In this paper we focus on two new families of polynomials which are connected with exponential polynomials and geometric polynomials. We discuss their generalizations and show that these new families of polynomials and their generalizations…
Z.-W. Sun introduced three kinds of numbers: \begin{align*}S_n=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose k}^2{2k\choose k}(2k+1),\qquad s_n=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose k}^2{2k\choose k}\frac{1}{2k-1}, \end{align*} and $S_n^{+}=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose…
The numerical Hilbert series combinatorics and the comodule Hilbert series combinatorics are introduced, and some applications are presented, including the MacMahon Master Theorem.
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 prove various congruences for Catalan and Motzkin numbers as well as related sequences. The common thread is that all these sequences can be expressed in terms of binomial coefficients. Our techniques are combinatorial and algebraic:…
We provide elementary proof of several congruences involving single sum and multisums of binomial coefficients.
In this paper, by using the arithmetic theory of ternary quadratic forms, we study some refinements on Lagrange's four-square theorem. For example, given positive integers $a,b$ satisfying some algebraic conditions and a positive integer…
We prove Soergel's conjecture on the characters of indecomposable Soergel bimodules. We deduce that Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials have positive coefficients for arbitrary Coxeter systems. Using results of Soergel one may deduce an algebraic…
We prove an important property of the binomial transform: it converts multiplication by the discrete variable into a certain difference operator. We also consider the case of dividing by the discrete variable. The properties presented here…
We present a relationship between the generalized hyperharmonic numbers and the poly-Bernoulli polynomials, motivated from the connections between harmonic and Bernoulli numbers. This relationship yields numerous identities for the…
Given any two sequences of complex numbers, we establish simple relations between their binomial convolution and the binomial convolution of their individual binomial transforms. We employ these relations to derive new identities involving…
In this paper, we mainly prove two congruence conjecture of Z.-W. Sun. Let $p\equiv3\pmod 4$ be a prime. Then $$\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\frac{\binom{2k}k^2}{8^k}\equiv-\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\frac{\binom{2k}k^2}{(-16)^k}\pmod{p^3}.$$ And for any odd prime…
We study decompositions of natural numbers into triangular summands. For instance, we prove that any natural number can be represented as a sum of four triangular numbers, two of them having even indices and the other two having odd…
In this paper, we mainly show that generalized hyperharmonic number sums with reciprocal binomial coefficients can be expressed in terms of classical (alternating) Euler sums, zeta values and generalized (alternating) harmonic numbers.
