The middle binomial coefficients can be interpreted as numbers of Motzkin paths which have no horizontal steps at positive heights. Assigning suitable weights gives some nice polynomial extensions. We determine the Hankel determinants and…
Hankel determinants of sequences related to Bernoulli and Euler numbers have been studied before, and numerous identities are known. However, when a sequence is shifted by one unit, the situation often changes significantly. In this paper…
We evaluate the Hankel determinants of various sequences related to Bernoulli and Euler numbers and special values of the corresponding polynomials. Some of these results arise as special cases of Hankel determinants of certain sums and…
Using continued fraction expansions of certain polygamma functions as a main tool, we find orthogonal polynomials with respect to the odd-index Bernoulli polynomials $B_{2k+1}(x)$ and the Euler polynomials $E_{2k+\nu}(x)$, for $\nu=0, 1,…
We calculate the Hankel determinants of sequences of Bernoulli polynomials. This corresponding Hankel matrix comes from statistically estimating the variance in nonparametric regression. Besides its entries' natural and deep connection with…
We give simple proofs for the Hankel determinants of q-exponential polynomials.
Recently I. Mezo studied a simple but interesting generalization of the exponential polynomials. In this note I consider two q-analogues of these polynomials and compute their Hankel determinants.
I study Hankel determinants of a class of sequences which can be interpreted as generalizations of the Catalan numbers and the central binomial coefficients. They follow a modular pattern with a frequent appearance of zeroes, so that the…
The $q$-analogs of Bernoulli and Euler numbers were introduced by Carlitz. Similar to the recent results on the Hankel determinants for the $q$-Bernoulli numbers established by Chapoton and Zeng, we determine parallel evaluations for the…
This note presents some results about Hankel determinants of backwards shifted Catalan-like numbers and related sequences.
By prepending zeros to a given sequence Hankel determinants of backward shifts of this sequence become meaningful. We obtain some results for the sequences of Catalan numbers and of some numbers and polynomials which are related to Catalan…
We study some polynomials which are related to Hankel determinants of backward shifts of the coefficients of a partial theta function. In this version an appendix is added which gives a simple formula for the coefficients of the reciprocal…
In this (partly expository) paper we give a short overview about the close relationship between the sequence of Catalan numbers and Hankel determinants from the point of view of orthogonal polynomials and show that an analogous situation…
In this paper we shall survey the various methods of evaluating Hankel determinants and as an illustration we evaluate some Hankel determinants of a q-analogue of Catalan numbers. Here we consider $\frac{(aq;q)_{n}}{(abq^{2};q)_{n}}$ as a…
We give an explicit formula for the Hankel transform of a regular sequence in terms of the coefficients of the associated orthogonal polynomials and the sequence itself. We apply this formula to some sequences of combinatorial interest,…
After a short survey about Schroeder numbers and some generalizations which I call Schroeder-like numbers I study some q-analogues which have simple Hankel determinants.
In this (mostly expository) paper I want to share some observations prompted by a class of matrices whose determinants are Catalan numbers. Considering different methods of proof we obtain some generalizations and q-analogues and…
In this paper, we consider polynomials orthogonal with respect to a varying perturbed Laguerre weight $e^{-n(z-\log z+t/z)}$ for $t<0$ and $z$ on certain contours in the complex plane. When the parameters $n$, $t$ and the degree $k$ are…
