The following notes are intended to make a small digression on the topics mentioned in the title of the same, since these were not addressed in the past tribute by the Institute of Physics of the UdeA. We believe more than platitude try to…
Generalisations of the classical Euler formula to the setting of fractional calculus are discussed. Compound interest and fractional compound interest serve as motivation. Connections to fractional master equations are highlighted. An…
We give generalizations of a finite version of Euler's pentagonal number theorem and of a q-identity of Gauss.
Two of the pillars of combinatorics are the notion of choosing an arbitrary subset of a set with $n$ elements (which can be done in $2^n$ ways), and the notion of choosing a $k$-element subset of a set with $n$ elements (which can be done…
We consider the Euler approach to construction and to investigation of the superintegrable systems related to the addition theorems. As an example we reconstruct Drach systems and get some new two-dimensional superintegrable Stackel…
The problem of inverting the total divergence operator is central to finding components of a given conservation law. This might not be taxing for a low-order conservation law of a scalar partial differential equation, but integrable systems…
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…
In the 1770s, Euler wrote a series of papers (E563, E691 and E692) about finding the ellipse with minimal area or perimeter in the family of all ellipses passing through a fixed set of points. This is a translation of all three papers from…
Back in 1755, Euler explored an interesting array of numbers that now frequently appears in polynomial identities, combinatorial problems, and finite calculus, among other places. These numbers share a strong connection with well-known…
We give a new construction of q-Genocchi numbers, Euler numbers of higher order, which are different than the q-Genocchi numbers of Cangul-Ozden-Simsek. By using our q-Genoucchi, Euler nimbers of higher order, we can investigate the…
This is a translation from the Latin of Euler's "Problema algebraicum de inveniendis quatuor numeris ex datis totidem productis uniuscuiusque horum numerorum in summas trium reliquorum", Opera Postuma 1 (1862), 282-287, reprinted in…
Consider the operator $E$ on arithmetic functions such that $Ef$ is the multiplicative arithmetic function defined by $(Ef)(p^a) = f(a)$ for every prime power $p^a$. We investigate the behaviour of $E^m\tau_k$, where $\tau_k$ is a…
Leonhard Euler, the most prolific mathematician in history, contributed to advance a wide spectrum of topics in celestial mechanics. At the Saint Petersburg Observatory, Euler observed sunspots and tracked the movements of the Moon.…
This paper, along with E592 and E636, seems to consider the binomial expansion (1+z)^n in the case where z is complex. Euler even gives the sums of divergent series. The paper is translated from Euler's Latin original into German.
The purpose this paper is to present a systemic study of some families of multiple q-Euler numbers and polynomials and we construct multiple q-zeta function which interpolates multiple q-Euler numbers at negative integers.
The double zeta function was first studied by Euler in response to a letter from Goldbach in 1742. One of Euler's results for this function is a decomposition formula, which expresses the product of two values of the Riemann zeta function…
By using the elementary symmetric polynomials and some results of number theory, we solve the well known problem of Lehmer on Euler's totient function. As application, we obtain a new characterization of prime numbers.
This is an English translation of Euler's ``Theoremata circa residua ex divisione potestatum relicta'', Novi Commentarii academiae scientiarum Petropolitanae 7 (1761), 49-82. E262 in the Enestrom index. Euler gives many elementary results…
The purpose of this paper is to construct q-Euler numbers and polynomials by using p-adic q-integral equations on Zp. Finally, we will give some interesting formulae related to these q-Euler numbers and polynomials.
In this lecture notes we try to familiarize the audience with the theory of Bernoulli polynomials; we study their properties, and we give, with proofs and references, some of the most relevant results related to them. Several applications…
