We define the Bernoulli polynomials with a $q$ parameter in terms of $r$-Whitney numbers of the second kind. Some algebraic properties and combinatorial identities of these polynomials are given. Also, we obtain several relations between…
Following our earlier work, where doubly indexed and irreducible over Q two-variable Laguerre polynomials were introduced, we prove for such polynomials some recurrence formulas and obtain a generating function. In addition, we show how…
We increase the scope of previous work on change of basis between finite bases of polynomials by defining ascending and descending bases and introducing three techniques for defining them from known ones. The minimum degrees of polynomials…
When the co-recursion and co-dilation in the recurrence relation of certain sequences of orthogonal polynomials are not at the same level, the behaviour of the modified orthogonal polynomials is expected to have different properties…
In the present article the author extends the Fourier transform to a more general class of functions; First to power-law functions with integer and half-integer exponents then to the widely used quantum statistics function (Fermi-Dirac and…
A binomial coefficient identity due to Zhi-Wei Sun is the subject of half a dozen recent papers that prove it by various analytic techniques and establish a generalization. Here we give a simple proof that uses weight-reversing involutions…
In the previous author's paper the Macdonald norm conjecture (including the famous constant term conjecture) was proved. This paper contains the proof of the remaining two (the duality and evaluation conjectures). The evaluation theorem is…
In this paper we shall evaluate two alternating sums of binomial coefficients by a combinatorial argument. Moreover, by combining the same combinatorial idea with partition theoretic techniques, we provide $q$-analogues involving the…
We prove a general version of the classical Perron-Frobenius convergence property for reducible matrices. We then apply this result to reducible substitutions and use it to produce limit frequencies for factors and hence invariant measures…
In this paper, a new $q$-supercongruence with two free parameters modulo the fourth power of a cyclotomic polynomial is obtained. Our main auxiliary tools are Watson's $_8\phi_7$ transformation formula for basic hypergeometric series, the…
An overview of the basic results on Macdonald(-Koornwinder) polynomials and double affine Hecke algebras is given. We develop the theory in such a way that it naturally encompasses all known cases. Among the basic properties of the…
In this paper, we investigate the properties of q-Hermite polynomials related to q-Bernstein polynomials. From these properties, we derive some interesting relations between q-Berstein polynomials and q-Hermite polynomials.
Generalized quons interpolating between Bose, Fermi, para-Bose, para-Fermi, and anyonic statistics are proposed. They follow from the R-matrix approach to deformed associative algebras. It is proved that generalized quons have the same main…
We prove strict unimodality of the q-binomial coefficients \binom{n}{k}_q as polynomials in q. The proof is based on the combinatorics of certain Young tableaux and the semigroup property of Kronecker coefficients of S_n representations.
We give a presentation of refined (dual) canonical Grothendieck polynomials and their skew versions using free-fermions. Using this, we derive a number of identities, including the skew Cauchy identities, branching rules, expansion…
We prove the Breuil-M\'ezard conjecture for 2-dimensional potentially Barsotti-Tate representations of the absolute Galois group G_K, K a finite extension of Q_p, for any p>2 (up to the question of determining precise values for the…
A two-variable generalization of the Big $-1$ Jacobi polynomials is introduced and characterized. These bivariate polynomials are constructed as a coupled product of two univariate Big $-1$ Jacobi polynomials. Their orthogonality measure is…
We find a formula for the number of permutation polynomials of degree q-2 over a finite field Fq, which has q elements, in terms of the permanent of a matrix. We write down an expression for the number of permutation polynomials of degree…
A multidimensional generalization of the Bernstein class of functions and the properties of functions of the introduced class are examined. In particular, a new proof of the integral representation of Bernstein functions of many variables…
Using sequences of finite length with positive integer elements and the inversion statistic on such sequences, a collection of binomial and multinomial identities are extended to their $q$-analog form via combinatorial proofs. Using the…
