Proof of two conjectures of Z.-W. Sun on congruences for Franel numbers

open access: yes, 2012
For all nonnegative integers n, the Franel numbers are defined as $$ f_n=\sum_{k=0}^n {n\choose k}^3.$$ We confirm two conjectures of Z.-W. Sun on congruences for Franel numbers: \sum_{k=0}^{n-1}(3k+2)(-1)^k f_k &\equiv 0 \pmod{2n^2}, \sum_{k=0}^{p-1}(3k+

A Pipe Dream Perspective on Totally Symmetric Self-Complementary Plane Partitions

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma
We characterize totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions (TSSCPP) as bounded compatible sequences satisfying a Yamanouchi-like condition. As such, they are in bijection with certain pipe dreams.

Fourier series of functions involving higher-order ordered Bell polynomials

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2017
In 1859, Cayley introduced the ordered Bell numbers which have been used in many problems in number theory and enumerative combinatorics. The ordered Bell polynomials were defined as a natural companion to the ordered Bell numbers (also known as the ...

Some vanishing sums involving binomial coefficients in the denominator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Identities involving binomial coeffcients usually arise in situations where counting is carried out in two different ways. For instance, some identities obtained by William Horrace [1] using probability theory turn out to be special cases of the Chu ...

Some congruences involving binomial coefficients

open access: yes, 2015
Binomial coefficients and central trinomial coefficients play important roles in combinatorics. Let $p>3$ be a prime. We show that $$T_{p-1}\equiv\left(\frac p3\right)3^{p-1}\ \pmod{p^2},$$ where the central trinomial coefficient $T_n$ is the constant ...

Continued fractions for permutation statistics [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2018
We explore a bijection between permutations and colored Motzkin paths that has been used in different forms by Foata and Zeilberger, Biane, and Corteel.

Lattice paths with catastrophes [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
In queuing theory, it is usual to have some models with a "reset" of the queue. In terms of lattice paths, it is like having the possibility of jumping from any altitude to zero.

Some identities of higher-order Bernoulli, Euler and Hermite polynomials arising from umbral calculus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, we study umbral calculus to have alternative ways of obtaining our results. That is, we derive some interesting identities of the higher-order Bernoulli, Euler and Hermite polynomials arising from umbral calculus to have alternative ways ...

Key-avoidance for alternating sign matrices [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science
We initiate a systematic study of key-avoidance on alternating sign matrices (ASMs) defined via pattern-avoidance on an associated permutation called the \emph{key} of an ASM.
