It is known that $\sum_{k=0}^\infty\binom{2k}{k}/((2k+1)4^k)=\pi/2$ and $\sum_{k=0}^\infty\binom{2k}{k}/((2k+1)16^k)=\pi/3$. In this paper we obtain their p-adic analogues such as…
We consider here a particular quadratic equation linking two elements of a C-Algebra. By analysing powers of the unknowns, it appears a double sequence of polynomials related to classical Bernoulli polynomials. We get the generating…
In this study, we apply the binomial transforms to Tribonacci and Tribonacci-Lucas sequences. Also, the Binet formulas, summations, generating functions of these transforms are found using recurrence relations. Finally, we illustrate the…
We prove exact asymptotic expansions for the partial sums of the sequences of central binomial coefficients and Catalan numbers, $\sum_{k=0}^n \binom{2k}{k}$ and $\sum_{k=0}^n C_n$. We also obtain closed forms for the polynomials…

We provide an alternative description of the group of Riordan arrays, by using two power series of the form $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} g_n x^n$, where $g_0 \ne 0$ to build a typical element of the constructed group. We relate these elements to…
Given a linear recurrence of the form $c_n=a_1c_{n-1}+\cdots+a_j c_{n-j}$, it is well-known that $c_n=\sum_{r}p_r(n)r^n$, where the sum is taken over the set of characteristic roots and each $p_r(n)$ is some polynomial. We give a closed…
In this paper we study recurrences concerning the combinatorial sum $[n,r]_m=\sum_{k\equiv r (mod m)}\binom {n}{k}$ and the alternate sum $\sum_{k\equiv r (mod m)}(-1)^{(k-r)/m}\binom{n}{k}$, where m>0, $n\ge 0$ and r are integers. For…
We investigate power series that converge to a bounded function on the real line. First, we establish relations between coefficients of a power series and boundedness of the resulting function; in particular, we show that boundedness can be…
We characterize sequences of numbers $(a_n)$ such that $\sum_{n\geq 1} a_n\Phi_n$ converges a.e. for any orthonormal system $(\Phi_n)$ in any $L_2$-space. In our criterion, we use the set $B =\{\sum_{m\geq n} |a_m|^2; n\geq 1\}$ and its…
We show that certain weighted Fibonacci and Lucas series can always be expressed as linear combinations of polylogarithms. In some special cases we evaluate the series in terms of Bernoulli polynomials, making use of the connection between…
We evaluate some series with summands involving a single binomial coefficient $\binom{6k}{3k}$. For example, we prove that $$\sum_{k=0}^\infty\frac{(63k^2+78k+22)8^k}{(2k+1)(6k+1)(6k+5)\binom{6k}{3k}}=\frac{3\pi}2.$$ Motivated by Galois…
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…
