This note is devoted to establish some new arithmetic properties of the generalized Genocchi numbers $G_{n , a}$ ($n \in \mathbb{N}$, $a \geq 2$). The resulting properties for the usual Genocchi numbers $G_n = G_{n , 2}$ are then derived.…

We begin with the observation that the signed generalized Stirling polynomials $P_k(m,x)$, which occur in a generalization of Malmsten's integral, reduce to the falling factorials when $k=m$. The structure of these generalized Stirling…

In this paper we show that for every positive integer $n$ there exists a prime number in the interval $[n,9(n+3)/8]$. Based on this result, we prove that if $a$ is an integer greater than 1, then for every integer $n>14.4a$ there are at…

An integer is said to be $y$-friable if its greatest prime factor P(n) is less than $y$. In this paper, we study numbers of the shape $n-1$ when $P(n)\leq y$ and $n\leq x$. One expects that, statistically, their multiplicative behaviour…

Let K_n denote the smaller mode of the nth row of Stirling numbers of the second kind S(n, k). Using a probablistic argument, it is shown that for all n>=2, [exp(w(n))]-2<=K_n<=[exp(w(n))]+1, where [x] denotes the integer part of x, and…

In an earlier paper, we defined and studied q-analogues of the Stirling numbers of both types for the Coxeter group of type B. In the present work, we show how this approach can be extended to all irreducible complex reflection groups G.…

We define and study a spatial (infinite-dimensional) counterpart of Stirling numbers. In classical combinatorics, the Pochhammer symbol $(m)_n$ can be extended from a natural number $m\in\mathbb N$ to the falling factorials…

In this paper, we consider a two-parameter polynomial generalization, denoted by G_{a,b}(n,k;r), of the r-Lah numbers which reduces to these recently introduced numbers when a=b=1. We present several identities for G_{a,b}(n,k;r) that…

Integer partitions express the different ways that a positive integer may be written as a sum of positive integers. Here we explore the analytic properties of a new polynomial $f_\lambda(x)$ that we call the partition polynomial for the…

We prove that the enumerative polynomials of generalized Stirling permutations by the statistics of plateaux, descents and ascents are partial $\gamma$-positive. Specialization of our result to the Jacobi-Stirling permutations confirms a…

In the present paper we generalize the Eulerian numbers (also of the second and third orders). The generalization is connected with an autonomous first-order differential equation, solutions of which are used to obtain integral…

In this note, we show that $S(n,r):=\sum_{k=0}^{n} \binom{n}{k}\frac{k}{k+r}$ is not an integer for any positive integer $n$ and $r\in \{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$ and for $n\le r-1$. This gives a partial answer to a conjecture of [3].

The normal ordering of an integral power of the number operator in terms of boson operators is expressed with the help of the Stirling numbers of the second kind. As a `degenerate version' of this, we consider the normal ordering of a…

An ordered partition of [n]:={1,2,..., n} is a sequence of its disjoint subsets whose union is [n]. The number of ordered partitions of [n] with k blocks is k!S(n,k), where S(n,k) is the Stirling number of second kind. In this paper we…

Stirling numbers of both kinds are linked to each other via two combinatorial identities due to Schl\"afli and Gould. Using q-analogs of Stirling numbers defined as inversion generating functions, we provide q-analogs of the two identities.…

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.

The Jacobi-Stirling numbers were discovered as a result of a problem involving the spectral theory of powers of the classical second-order Jacobi differential expression. Specifically, these numbers are the coefficients of integral…

The numbers e_p(k,n) defined as min(nu_p(S(k,j)j!): j >= n) appear frequently in algebraic topology. Here S(k,j) is the Stirling number of the second kind, and nu_p(-) the exponent of p. The author and Sun proved that if L is sufficiently…

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…

For any integer $k$, M.Kaneko defined $k$-th poly-Bernoulli numbers as a kind of generalization of classical Bernoulli numbers using $k$-th polylogarithm. In case when $k$ is positive, $k$-th poly-Bernoulli numbers is a sequence of rational…
