The degenerate Stirling numbers of the second kind and of the first kind, which are respectively degenerate versions of the Stirling numbers of the second kind and of the first kind, appear frequently when we study various degenerate…
Generalizations of Bell polynomials, Bell numbers, and Stirling numbers of the second kind have been introduced and their generating functions were evaluated.
The function $y=\Phi_\alpha(x)$, the solution of $y^\alpha e^y=x$ for $x$ and $y$ large enough, has a series expansion in terms of $\ln x$ and $\ln\ln x$, with coefficients given in terms of Stirling cycle numbers. It is shown that this…
In this paper, we consider a two-parameter polynomial generalization, denoted by G_{a,b}(n,k;r), of the r-Lah numbers which reduces to these recently introduced numbers when a=b=1. We present several identities for G_{a,b}(n,k;r) that…

We prove that the enumerative polynomials of generalized Stirling permutations by the statistics of plateaux, descents and ascents are partial $\gamma$-positive. Specialization of our result to the Jacobi-Stirling permutations confirms a…

Consider the Fibonacci numbers defined by setting $F_1=1=F_2$ and $F_n =F_{n-1}+F_{n-2}$ for $n \geq 3$. We let $n_F! = F_1 \cdots F_n$ and $\binom{n}{k}_F = \frac{n_F!}{k_F!(n-k)_F!}$. Let $(x)_{\downarrow_0} = (x)_{\uparrow_0} = 1$ and…
