In this paper, we derive a formula for the sums of powers of the first $n$ positive integers, $S_k(n)$, that involves the hyperharmonic numbers and the Stirling numbers of the second kind. Then, using an explicit representation for the…
Recently, Kargin et al. (arXiv:2008.00284 [math.NT]) obtained (among many other things) the following formula for the hyper-sums of powers of integers $S_k^{(m)}(n)$ \begin{equation*} S_k^{(m)}(n) = \frac{1}{m!} \sum_{i=0}^{m} (-1)^i…
We give an expression of polynomials for higher sums of powers of integers via the higher order Bernoulli numbers.
This paper gives new explicit formulas for sums of powers of integers and their reciprocals.
In this note, we propose simple summations for primes, which involve two finite nested sums and Bernoulli numbers. The summations can also be expressed in terms of Bernoulli polynomials.
By applying the Newton-Gregory expansion to the polynomial associated with the sum of powers of integers $S_k(n) = 1^k + 2^k + \cdots + n^k$, we derive a couple of infinite families of explicit formulas for $S_k(n)$. One of the families…
In this note we show a simple formula for the coefficients of the polynomial associated with the sums of powers of the terms of an arbitrary arithmetic progression. This formula consists of a double sum involving only ordinary binomial…
For finite sums of non-negative powers of arithmetic progressions the generating functions (ordinary and exponential ones) for given powers are computed. This leads to a two parameter generalization of Stirling and Eulerian numbers. A…
Recently, E. Samsonadze (arXiv:2411.11859v1) has given an explicit formula for the sums of powers of integers $S_k(n) = 1^k +2^k +\cdots + n^k$. In this short note, we show that Samsonadze's formula corresponds to a well-known formula for…
Recently, Dil and Boyadzhiev \cite{AD2015} proved an explicit formula for the sum of multiple harmonic numbers whose indices are the sequence $\left( {{{\left\{ 0 \right\}}_r},1} \right)$. In this paper we show that the sums of multiple…
Several combinatorial identities are presented, involving Stirling functions of the second kind with a complex variable. The identities involve also Stirling numbers of the first kind, binomial coefficients and harmonic numbers.
We give a simple recursive formula to obtain the general sum of the first $N$ natural numbers to the $r$th power. Our method allows one to obtain the general formula for the $(r+1)$th power once one knows the general formula for the $r$th…
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:…
We provide direct elementary proofs of several explicit expressions for Bernoulli numbers and Bernoulli polynomials. As a byproduct of our method of proof, we provide natural definitions for generalized Bernoulli numbers and polynomials of…
A sequence of rational numbers as a generalization of the sequence of Bernoulli numbers is introduced. Sums of products involving the terms of this generalized sequence are then obtained using an application of the Fa\`a di Bruno's formula.…
In this paper, we obtain some formulae for harmonic sums, alternating harmonic sums and Stirling number sums by using the method of integral representations of series. As applications of these formulae, we give explicit formula of several…
The problem of finding formulas for sums of powers of natural numbers has been of interest to mathematicians for many centuries. Among these is Faulhaber's well-known formula expressing the power sums as polynomials whose coefficients…
In a recent paper the authors studied the denominators of polynomials that represent power sums by Bernoulli's formula. Here we extend our results to power sums of arithmetic progressions. In particular, we obtain a simple explicit…
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…
In this note, we derive an alternative recursive formula for the sums of powers of integers involving the Stirling numbers of the first kind. As a remarkable by-product, we provide a non-recursive definition of the Catalan numbers.
