In this note, we provide bijective proofs of some identities involving the Bell number, as previously requested. Our arguments may be extended to yield a generalization in terms of complete Bell polynomials. We also provide a further…
Inspired by work done for systems of polynomial exponential equations, we study systems of equations involving the modular $j$ function. We show general cases in which these systems have solutions, and then we look at certain situations in…
In the study of Zeilberger's conjecture on an integer sequence related to the Catalan numbers, Lassalle proposed the following conjecture. Let $(t)_n$ denote the rising factorial, and let $\Lambda_{\mathbb{R}}$ denote the algebra of…
We define a new generalization of Catalan numbers to multinomial coefficients. With arithmetic methods, we study their integrality and the integrality of their Lucasnomial generalization. We give a complete characterization of regular Lucas…
In this paper, we compute and verify the positivity of the Li coefficients for the Dirichlet $L$-functions using an arithmetic formula established in Omar and Mazhouda, J. Number Theory 125 (2007) no.1, 50-58; J. Number Theory 130 (2010)…
We will show in this text that, for all non-negative integers $n$ and $l$, the following equality is verified: \[\sum_{i=0}^{l} {n-i \choose i}{l+i \choose 2i+1}=\sum_{i=0}^{l} {n-i \choose i-1}{l+i \choose 2i}.\] We will first address the…
The first author introduced a sequence of polynomials (\cite{8}, sequence A174531) defined recursively. One of the main results of this study is proof of the integrality of its coefficients.
Let k and n be positive integers. We mainly show that $$(ln+1) | k\binom{kn+ln}{kn},$$ $$2\binom{kn}n | \binom {2n}{n}C_{2n}^{(k-1)}$$, $$\binom{kn}n | (2k-1)C_n\binom{2kn}{2n},$$ $$\binom{2n}n | (k+1)C_n^{(k-1)}\binom{2kn}{kn},$$…
In this paper, we introduce relations between binomial sums involving (generalized) Fibonacci and Lucas numbers, and different kinds of binomial coefficients. We also present some relations between sums with two and three binomial…
We study certain kind of polynomials associated with Lissajous curves, called Chebyshev-Lissajous polynomials. We investigate their irreducibilities over the real numbers and complex numbers, thus comfirming two conjectures proposed by…
In this article, I introduce a group-theoretical method to prove positivity of certain linear combinations (with coefficients generally lying in $\mathbb{C}$) of exponential functions under a set of semidefinite linear constraints. The…
We prove a series of Stephan's conjectures concerning Pascal triangle modulo 2 and give a polynomial generalization.
Polynomial interpretations are a useful technique for proving termination of term rewrite systems. They come in various flavors: polynomial interpretations with real, rational and integer coefficients. As to their relationship with respect…
We prove some properties of positive polynomial mappings between Riesz spaces, using finite difference calculus. We establish the polynomial analogue of the classical result that positive, additive mappings are linear. And we prove a…
We examine a generalization of the binomial distribution associated with a strictly increasing sequence of numbers and we prove its Poisson-like limit. Such generalizations might be found in quantum optics with imperfect detection. We…
We prove a partition identity conjectured by Lassalle (Adv. in Appl. Math. 21 (1998), 457-472).
We provide elementary proof of several congruences involving single sum and multisums of binomial coefficients.
We give necessary and sufficient existence criteria, and methods for finding, continuous solutions of linear equations whose coefficients are polynomials.
We consider real polynomials in finitely many variables. Let the variables consist of finitely many blocks that are allowed to overlap in a certain way. Let the solution set of a finite system of polynomial inequalities be given where each…
We present positivity conjectures for the Schur expansion of Jack symmetric functions in two bases given by binomial coefficients. Partial results suggest that there are rich combinatorics to be found in these bases, including Eulerian…
