This paper derives Touchard's theorem from Euler's form for odd perfect numbers. It also fine-tunes Euler's form.
We prove a double binomial sum identity which differs from most binomial sum identities in that the summands involve the absolute value function. The identity is of interest because it can be used in proofs of lower bounds for the Hadamard…
This study reexamines diffusive representations for fractional integrals with the goal of pioneering new variants of such representations. These variants aim to offer highly efficient numerical algorithms for the approximate computation of…
This paper establishes an interesting link between $k$th price auctions and Catalan numbers by showing that for distributions that have linear density, the bid function at any symmetric, increasing equilibrium of a $k$th price auction with…
We describe an inner product on the diagrams on which the Temperley-Lieb algebra can be represented. We exhibit several constructions which are in natural combinatorial bijection with these diagrams, which are generalizations of various…
Classical binomial identities are established by giving probabilistic interpretations to the summands. The examples include Vandermonde identity and some generalizations.
This article makes the key observation that when using cylindrical algebraic decomposition (CAD) to solve a problem with respect to a set of polynomials, it is not always the signs of those polynomials that are of paramount importance but…
The Fundamental Theorem of Integral Calculus links the integrand and its antiderivative via a simple first order differential equation. A numerical solution of this ode yields the antiderivative and hence the required integral. This…
In many applications, the information about the number of eigenvalues inside a given region is required. In this paper, we propose a contour-integral based method for this purpose. The new method is motivated by two findings. There exist…
Significant progress has been made in the field of handwritten mathematical expression recognition, while existing encoder-decoder methods are usually difficult to model global information in $LaTeX$. Therefore, this paper introduces a…
This work is an extension of our earlier article, where a well-known integral representation of the logarithmic function was explored, and was accompanied with demonstrations of its usefulness in obtaining compact, easily-calculable, exact…
An automated treatment of iterated integrals based on letters induced by real-valued quadratic forms and Kummer--Poincar\'e letters is presented. These quantities emerge in analytic single and multi--scale Feynman diagram calculations. To…
We introduce dilogarithm identities through a beta integral-based technique that we apply to provide analytic proofs of previously conjectured dilogarithm relations, solving open problems given by both Bytsko and Campbell, and that we…
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…
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…
We present a generalization of the Newton-Girard identities, along with some applications. As an addendum, we collect many evaluations of symmetric polynomials to which these identities apply.
We prove the following conjecture of Zeilberger. Denoting by $C_n$ the Catalan number, define inductively $A_n$ by $(-1)^{n-1}A_n=C_n+\sum_{j=1}^{n-1} (-1)^{j} \binom{2n-1}{2j-1} A_j \,C_{n-j}$ and $a_n=2A_n/C_n$. Then $a_n$ (hence $A_n$)…
The paper describes a prime factorization of the Catalan numbers. Odd prime factors are distributed in layers in accordance with Legendre's formula. The content of each layer is a network of the intervals, Chebyshev's Segments. The primes…
Integration by parts identities (IBPs) can be used to express large numbers of apparently different d-dimensional Feynman Integrals in terms of a small subset of so-called master integrals (MIs). Using the IBPs one can moreover show that…
We study the properties of the odd Catalan numbers, C_n, modulo 2^k for k >= 2. We show that there exist only k - 1 different congruences of the odd Catalan numbers modulo 2^k. Moreover, these congruences can be obtained by C_{2^m - 1} (mod…
