Discovering New Recurrence Relations for Stirling Numbers: Leveraging a Poisson Expectation Identity for Higher-Order Moments

Axioms
This paper establishes two novel recurrence relations for Stirling numbers of the second kind—an L recurrence and a vertical recurrence—discovered through a probabilistic analysis of Poisson higher-order origin moments.

Exact Formula for Computing the Hyper-Wiener Index on Rows of Unit Cells of the Face-Centred Cubic Lattice

Analele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2018
Similarly to Wiener index, hyper-Wiener index of a connected graph is a widely applied topological index measuring the compactness of the structure described by the given graph. Hyper-Wiener index is the sum of the distances plus the squares of distances

Bridging home, school and community to address educational inequality: Supporting educational trajectories through community bridge work

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the role of community stakeholders in supporting the educational trajectories of students experiencing socio‐economic disadvantage in the Irish context. Building on international and national policy debates, the study examines how community‐based organisations, statutory services and outreach initiatives work alongside ...

Recurrence Relations for Moment Generating Function of Progressive First Failure Censoring and Characterizations of Right Truncated Exponential Distribution [PDF]

ERU Research Journal
In this paper, we establish several recurrence relations satisfiedby the single and product moment generating function of progressive first failure censoring from an right truncated exponential distribution. These relations may then be used, for example,

Framing National Education in Hong Kong: A frame analysis of power dynamics in stakeholders' competing narratives

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how national education in Hong Kong functions as a contested arena in which state and non‐state actors struggle over the meaning of citizenship, identity and schooling. Using inductive frame analysis of 319 news articles (2020–2025) from five Chinese‐ and English‐language outlets, it identifies diagnostic, prognostic and ...

‘School is their whole world’: Teachers' perspectives on loneliness among children and adolescents from England and mainland China

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract As front‐line observers and active participants in pupils' daily lives, teachers closely monitor pupils' social interactions, emotional states and behavioural changes. Their unique perspective enables them to detect problems in the social lives of their pupils that may not be immediately visible to peers, parents or mental health professionals.

On Mersenne Numbers and their Bihyperbolic Generalizations

Annales Mathematicae Silesianae
In this paper, we introduce Mersenne and Mersenne–Lucas bihyperbolic numbers, i.e. bihyperbolic numbers whose coefficients are consecutive Mersenne and Mersenne–Lucas numbers.

Measuring what matters: Evaluating the impact of curriculum decolonisation initiatives in UK business schools

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Curriculum decolonisation has become a prominent feature of equity agendas in UK higher education, yet there remains limited empirical and theoretical work on how such initiatives are evaluated, particularly within business schools. This paper presents one of the first multi‐institutional empirical studies examining how UK business schools ...

Using Recurrence Relations to Count Certain Elements in Symmetric Groups

, 2001
We use the fact that certain cosets of the stabilizer of points are pairwise conjugate in a symmetric group Snin order to construct recurrence relations for enumerating certain subsets ofSn .
