We study the relationship between Bell states, finite groups and complete sets of bases. We show how to obtain a set of N+1 bases in which Bell states are invariant. They generalize the X, Y and Z qubit bases and are associated to groups of…

Dedekind sums are well-studied arithmetic sums, with values uniformly distributed on the unit interval. Based on their relation to certain modular forms, Dedekind sums may be defined as functions on the cusp set of $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$. We…

Let $p$ be a prime, and $N$ be a positive integer not divisible by $p$. Denote by ${\rm ord}_N(p)$ the multiplicative order of $p$ modulo $N$. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ represent the finite field of order $q=p^{{\rm ord}_N(p)}$. For $a,…

We develop a general method for computing logarithmic and log-gamma expectations of distributions. As a result, we derive series expansions and integral representations of the entropy for several fundamental distributions, including the…

The problem of finding the sum of a polynomial's values is considered. In particular, for any $n\geq 3$, the explicit formula for the sum of the $n$th powers of natural numbers $S_n=\sum_{x=1}^{m}x^{n}$ is proved:…

In 2011, W. Lang derived a novel, explicit formula for the sum of powers of integers $S_k(n) = 1^k + 2^k + \cdots + n^k$ involving simultaneously the Stirling numbers of the first and second kind. In this note, we first recall and then…

The summation formula $$ \sum^{n-1}_{i=0}\epsilon^i i! (i^k+u_k) = v_k+\epsilon^{n-1} n! A_{k-1}(n) $$ $(\epsilon=\pm 1; k=1,2,...; u_k, v_k\in \msbm\hbox{Z}; A_{k-1}$ is a polynomial) is derived and its various aspects are considered. In…

Let $p,p_1,\ldots,p_m$ be positive integers with $p_1\leq p_2\leq\cdots\leq p_m$ and $x\in [-1,1)$, define the so-called Euler type sums ${S_{{p_1}{p_2} \cdots {p_m},p}}\left( x \right)$, which are the infinite sums whose general term is a…

We study a generalized class of weighted $k$-regular partitions defined by \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} c_{k, r_1, r_2}(n) q^n = \prod_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{(1 - q^{nk})^{r_1}}{(1 - q^n)^{r_2}}, \] which extends the classical $k$-regular partition…

In the classical sense, the set B consists of all integers which can be written as a sum of two perfect squares. In other words, these are the values attained by norms of integral ideals over the Gaussian field Q(i). G.J. Rieger (1965) and…

We consider generalized Dedekind sums in dimension $n$, for fixed $n$-tuple of natural numbers, defined as sum of products of values of periodic Bernoulli functions. This includes the higher dimensional Dedekind sums of Zagier and…

We consider binomial and inverse binomial sums at infinity and rewrite them in terms of a small set of constants, such as powers of $\pi$ or $\log(2)$. In order to perform these simplifications, we view the series as specializations of…

New methods for derivation of Bell polynomials of the second kind are presented. The methods are based on an ordinary generating function and its composita. The relation between a composita and a Bell polynomial is demonstrated. Main…

Rota used the functional L to recover old properties and obtain some new formulas for the Bell numbers. Tanny used Rota's functional L and the celebrated Worpitzky identity to obtain some expression for the ordered Bell numbers, which can…

The classical Poisson theorem says that if $\xi_1,\xi_2,...$ are i.i.d. 0--1 Bernoulli random variables taking on 1 with probability $p_n\equiv \la/n$ then the sum $S_n=\sum_{i=1}^n\xi_i$ is asymptotically in $n$ Poisson distributed with…

Let $m$, $r$ and $n$ be positive integers. We denote by ${\bf k}\vdash n$ any tuple of odd positive integers ${\bf k}=(k_1,\dots,k_t)$ such that $k_1+\dots+k_t=n$ and $k_j\ge 3$ for all $j$. In this paper we prove that for every…

We consider a family of character sums as multiplicative analogues of Kloosterman sums. Using Gauss sums, Jacobi sums and Deligne's bound for hyper-Kloosterman sums, we establish asymptotic formulae for any real (positive) moments of the…

We consider a class of $n^{\text{th}}$-order linear ordinary differential equations with a large parameter $u$. Analytic solutions of these equations can be described by (divergent) formal series in descending powers of $u$. We demonstrate…

For $k\geq 2$, the $k$-generalized Fibonacci sequence $(F_n^{(k)})_{n}$ is defined by the initial values $0,0,\ldots,0,1$ ($k$ terms) and such that each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In this paper, we search for…
