The ${\mathbb B}_n^{(k)}$ poly-Bernoulli numbers --- a natural generalization of classical Bernoulli numbers ($B_n={\mathbb B}_n^{(1)}$) --- were introduced by Kaneko in 1997. When the parameter $k$ is negative then ${\mathbb B}_n^{(k)}$ is…

By using the theory of the elliptic integrals a new method of summation is proposed for a certain class of series and their derivatives involving hyperbolic functions. It is based on the termwise differentiation of the series with respect…
In 1998 Don Zagier introduced the modified Bernoulli numbers $B_{n}^{*}$ and showed that they satisfy amusing variants of some properties of Bernoulli numbers. In particular, he studied the asymptotic behavior of $B_{2n}^{*}$, and also…

The history of the elastica is examined through the works of various contributors, including those of Jacob and Daniel Bernoulli, since its first appearance in a 1690 contest on finding the profile of a hanging flexible cord. Emphasis will…
