Let us denote by $\tau(n)$ and $\si(n)$ the number and the sum of the divisors of $n$ and by $\vfi$ Euler's function. We give effective upper bounds for $\frac{n}{\vfi(n)}$ in terms of $\vfi(n)$, and for $\frac{\si(n)}{n}$ in terms of…

We present a new formula for the Bernoulli numbers as the following integral $$B_{2m} =\frac{(-1)^{m-1}}{2^{2m+1}} \int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} (\frac{d^{m-1}}{dx^{m-1}} {sech}^2 x)^2dx. $$ This formula is motivated by the results of Fairlie…

The main purpose of this paper is to show that the multiplication of a Schubert polynomial of finite type $A$ by a Schur function, which we refer to as Schubert vs. Schur problem, can be understood from the multiplication in the space of…

A $(k,\ell )$ partial partition of an $n$-element set is a collection of $\ell $ pairwise disjoint $k$-element subsets. It is proved that, if $n$ is large enough, one can find $\left\lfloor {n\choose k}/{\ell}\right\rfloor$ such partial…

We define the $m$th-order Eulerian numbers with a combinatorial interpretation. The recurrence relation of the $m$th-order Eulerian numbers, the row generating function and the row sums of the $m$th-order Eulerian triangle are presented. We…

Let $B_{n}$ denote the Bernoulli numbers, and $S(n,k)$ denote the Stirling numbers of the second kind. We prove the following identity $$ B_{m+n}=\sum_{\substack{0\leq k \leq n \\ 0\leq l \leq m}}\frac{(-1)^{k+l}\,k!\, l!\,…

The Euler number $E_n$ (resp. Entringer number $E_{n,k}$) enumerates the alternating (down-up) permutations of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ (resp. starting with $k$). The Springer number $S_n$ (resp. Arnold number $S_{n,k}$) enumerates the type $B$…

An ordered partition of $[n]=\{1, 2, \ldots, n\}$ is a partition whose blocks are endowed with a linear order. Let $\mathcal{OP}_{n,k}$ be set of ordered partitions of $[n]$ with $k$ blocks and $\mathcal{OP}_{n,k}(\sigma)$ be set of ordered…

Let $B_n$ be the $n$-th balancing number. In this paper, we give some explicit expressions of $\sum_{l=0}^{2 r-3}(-1)^l\binom{2 r-3}{l}\sum_{j_1+\cdots+j_r=n-2 l\atop j_1,\dots,j_r\ge 1}B_{j_1}\cdots B_{j_r}$ and…

We derive a combinatorial multisum expression for the number $D(n,k)$ of partitions of $n$ with Durfee square of order $k$. An immediate corollary is therefore a combinatorial formula for $p(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$. We then…

The balancing numbers $B_n$ ($n=0,1,\cdots$) are solutions of the binary recurrence $B_n=6B_{n-1}-B_{n-2}$ ($n\ge 2$) with $B_0=0$ and $B_1=1$. In this paper we show several relations about the sums of product of two balancing numbers of…

Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers, and $f_n(k)$ (resp. $g_n(k)$) be the number of unital subrings (resp. unital irreducible subrings) of $\mathbb{Z}^n$ of index $k$. The numbers $f_n(k)$ are coefficients of certain zeta functions of…

In the quantum theory, using the notion of partial supersymmetry, in which some, but not all, operators have superpartners we derive the Euler theorem in partition theory. The paraferminic partition function gives another identity in…

We define two new statistics on words: the k-connector and the gk-connector. For a word $\pi = \pi_1\pi_2\cdots\pi_n$ of length $n$ over the alphabet $[k]$, a k-connector is defined as an ordered pair $(\pi_j, \pi_{j+1})$ where $1 \leq j…
