On Prime Divisors of Binomial Coefficients [PDF]

open access: bronzeMathematics of Computation, 1988
This paper, using computational and theoretical methods, deals with prime divisors of binomial coefficients: Geometric distribution and number of distinct prime divisors are studied. We give a numerical result on a conjecture by Erdős on square divisors of binomial coefficients.

Generating binomial coefficients in a row of Pascal's triangle from extensions of powers of eleven [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
Sir Isaac Newton noticed that the values of the first five rows of Pascal's triangle are each formed by a power of 11, and claimed that subsequent rows can also be generated by a power of 11.

Sum of the Reciprocals of the Binomial Coefficients

open access: bronzeEuropean Journal of Combinatorics, 1993
Let \(S_ n=\sum^ n_{k=0}{1 \over {n \choose k}}\). It is shown that \(S_ n\) satisfies the recurrence \(S_ n={n+1 \over 2n}S_{n-1}+1\). The proof can be simplified by observing that \[ n!S_ n=\sum^ n_{k=0}k!(n-k)!=n!+\sum^{n-1}_{k=0}k!(n-k-1)!(n+1-k-1) =n!+(n+ 1)(n-1)!S_{n-1}-(n!S_ n-n!). \]

Congruences for sums of binomial coefficients

open access: bronzeJournal of Number Theory, 2007
Let q>1 and m>0 be relatively prime integers. We find an explicit period $ _m(q)$ such that for any integers n>0 and r we have $[n+ _m(q),r]_m(a)=[n,r]_m(a) (mod q)$ whenever a is an integer with $\gcd(1-(-a)^m,q)=1$, or a=-1 (mod q), or a=1 (mod q) and 2|m, where $[n,r]_m(a)=\sum_{k=r(mod m)}\binom{n}{k}a^k$.

Sums involving the binomial coefficients, Bernoulli numbers of the second kind and harmonic numbers [PDF]

open access: yesNotes on Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics, 2023
We offer a number of various finite and infinite sum identities involving the binomial coefficients, Bernoulli numbers of the second kind and harmonic numbers. For example, among many others, we prove Σⁿₖ₌ₒ((-1)ᵏhₖ/4ᵏ)$binom{2k}{k}$Gₙ₋ₖ = ((-1)ⁿ⁻¹/2^²ⁿ⁻¹)
