相关论文: Euler and the pentagonal number theorem

The aim of this note is to provide a simple proof of some well-known identities and recurrences relating classical Bernoulli and Euler numbers by using the Abel sum of the divergent series $\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^{n} (n+1)^k$, $k$ a…

In this article, we provide partition-theoretic interpretations for some new truncated pentagonal number theorem and identities of Gauss. Also, we deduce few inequalities for some partition functions.

This is an introduction to small divisors problems. The material treated in this book was brought together for a PhD course I tought at the University of Pisa in the spring of 1999. Here is a Table of Contents: Part I One Dimensional Small…

This paper is devoted to Poincar\'e's work in probability. Though the subject does not represent a large part of the mathematician's achievements, it provides significant insight into the evolution of Poincar\'e's thought on several…

This paper is concerned with Mahler's method. We study in detail the structure of linear relations between values of Mahler functions at algebraic points. In particular, given a field ${\bf k}$, a Mahler function $f(z)\in{\bf k}\{z\}$, and…

In this paper we revisit the work of E.T. Bell concerning partition polynomials in order to introduce the reciprocal partition polynomials. We give their explicit formulas and apply the result to compute closed formulae for some well-known…

We apply Benacerraf's distinction between mathematical ontology and mathematical practice (or the structures mathematicians use in practice) to examine contrasting interpretations of infinitesimal mathematics of the 17th and 18th century,…

We generalise Euler's partition theorem involving odd parts and different parts for all moduli and provide new companions to Rogers-Ramanujan- Andrews-Gordon identities related to this theorem.

The aim of this paper is to study degenerate Eulerian polynomials and degenerate Eulerian numbers, respectively as degenerate versions of the Eulerian polynomials and the Eulerian numbers, and to derive some of their properties.…

In the present paper, we investigate special generalized q-Euler numbers and polynomials. Some earlier results of T. Kim in terms of q-Euler polynomials with weight alpha can be deduced. For presentation of our formulas we apply the method…

In this paper we give the q-extension of Euler numbers which can be viewed as interpolating of the q-analogue of Euler zeta function ay negative integers, in the same way that Riemann zeta function interpolates Bernoulli numbers at negative…

The purpose of this article is to introduce the concept of invariance and its properties. These properties can be used to check the primality of a number. Combining these properties with the Euler theorem, it is possible to generalize this…

Relations among integrals of logarithms, polylogarithms and Euler sums are presented. A unifying element being the introduction of Nielsen's generalized polylogarithms.

Euler evaluates the integrals in the title and recognizes a recursion between them, which he then uses to give continued fractions for the log and arctan. The paper is translated from Euler's Latin original into German.

The numbers of even and odd permutations with a given ascent number are investigated using an operator that was previously introduced by the author. Their difference is called a signed Eulerian number. By means of the operator the…

In this paper, we study some typical arithmetic properties of Euler's totient function of polynomials over finite fields. Especially, we study polynomial analogues of some classical conjectures about Euler's totient function, such as…

We prove Euler's theorem of number theory developing an argument based on quandles. A quandle is an algebraic structure whose axioms mimic the three Reidemeister moves of knot theory.

The double zeta function is a function of two arguments defined by a double Dirichlet series, and was first studied by Euler in response to a letter from Goldbach in 1742. By calculating many examples, Euler inferred a closed form…

Historically, the polylogarithm has attracted specialists and non-specialists alike with its lovely evaluations. Much the same can be said for Euler sums (or multiple harmonic sums), which, within the past decade, have arisen in…

We give a simple and self contained introduction to quaternions and their practical usage in dynamics. The rigid body dynamics are presented in full details. In the appendix, some more exotic relations are given that allow to write more…
