This manuscript contains a small portion of the algebraic theory of orthogonal polynomials developed by Maroni and their applicability to the study and characterization of the classical families, namely Hermite, Laguerre, Jacobi, and Bessel…

We consider a class of generalized binomials emerging in fractional calculus. After establishing some general properties, we focus on a particular yet relevant case, for which we provide several ready-for-use combinatorial identities,…

We classify all self-reciprocal polynomials arising from reversed Dickson polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}$ and $\mathbb{F}_p$, where $p$ is prime. As a consequence, we also obtain coterm polynomials arising from reversed Dickson polynomials.

For $x\ge0$ let $\pi(x)$ be the number of primes not exceeding $x$. The asymptotic behaviors of the prime-counting function $\pi(x)$ and the $n$-th prime $p_n$ have been studied intensively in analytic number theory. Surprisingly, we find…

We focus on writing closed forms of generating functions for the number of partitions with gap conditions as double sums starting from a combinatorial construction. Some examples of the sets of partitions with gap conditions to be discussed…

Let $(G,+)$ be an abelian group and consider a subset $A \subseteq G$ with $|A|=k$. Given an ordering $(a_1, \ldots, a_k)$ of the elements of $A$, define its {\em partial sums} by $s_0 = 0$ and $s_j = \sum_{i=1}^j a_i$ for $1 \leq j \leq…

An approximate formula for the partitions of Goldbach's Conjecture is derived using Prime Number Theorem and a heuristic probabilistic approach. A strong form of Goldbach's conjecture follows in the form of a lower bounding function for the…

The partition algebras are algebras of diagrams (which contain the group algebra of the symmetric group and the Brauer algebra) such that the multiplication is given by a combinatorial rule and such that the structure constants of the…

One relates factorization of bivariate polynomials to singularities of projective plane curves. One proves that adjoint polynomials permit to solve the recombinations of the modular factors induced by the absolute and rational…

Cyclotomic polynomials are basic objects in Number Theory. Their properties depend on the number of distinct primes that intervene in the factorization of their order, and the binary case is thus the first nontrivial case. This paper sees…

In a recent paper by the authors, a bounded version of Goellnitz's (big) partition theorem was established. Here we show among other things how this theorem leads to nontrivial new polynomial analogues of certain fundamental identities of…

We introduce and survey results on two families of zeta functions connected to the multiplicative and additive theories of integer partitions. In the case of the multiplicative theory, we provide specialization formulas and results on the…

$q$-Analogues of the coefficients of $x^a$ in the expansion of $\prod_{j=1}^N (1+x+...+x^j)^{L_j}$ are proposed. Useful properties, such as recursion relations, symmetries and limiting theorems of the ``$q$-supernomial coefficients'' are…

If the product of two monic polynomials with real nonnegative coefficients has all coefficients equal to 0 or 1, does it follow that all the coefficients of the two factors are also equal to 0 or 1? Here is an equivalent formulation of this…

In the first part of this expository paper, we present and discuss the interplay of Dirichlet polynomials in some classical problems of number theory, notably the Lindel\"of Hypothesis. We review some typical properties of their means and…

The triangle of sorted binomial coefficients $\left\langle {n \atop k} \right\rangle = \binom{n}{\lfloor \frac{n - k}{2} \rfloor}$ for $0 \leq k \leq n$ has appeared several times in recent combinatorial works but has evaded dedicated…

Symmetric Jack polynomials arise naturally in several contexts, including statistics, physics, combinatorics, and representation theory. They are pairwise orthogonal with repsect to two different inner products, the first defined by…

We give a new characterization of the set $\mathcal{C}$ of Carmichael numbers in the context of $p$-adic theory, independently of the classical results of Korselt and Carmichael. The characterization originates from a surprising link to the…

We find a close correspondence between certain partition functions of ideal quantum gases and certain symmetric polynomials. Due to this correspondence it can be shown that a number of thermodynamic identities which have recently been…

We consider a family of integer sequences generated by nonlinear recurrences of the second order, which have the curious property that the terms of the sequence, and integer multiples of the ratios of successive terms (which are also…
