Generalized Bell Numbers and Peirce Matrix via Pascal Matrix

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2018
With the Stirling matrix S and the Pascal matrix T, we show that TkS (k≥0) satisfies a type of generalized Stirling recurrence. Then, by expressing the sum of components of each row of TkS as k-Bell number, we investigate properties of k-Bell numbers as ...

Two problems of binomial sums involving harmonic numbers

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2021
Two open problems recently proposed by Xi and Luo (Adv. Differ. Equ. 2021:38, 2021) are resolved by evaluating explicitly three binomial sums involving harmonic numbers, that are realized mainly by utilizing the generating function method and symmetric ...

Normal Ordering for Deformed Boson Operators and Operator-valued Deformed Stirling Numbers

open access: yes, 1992
The normal ordering formulae for powers of the boson number operator $\hat{n}$ are extended to deformed bosons. It is found that for the `M-type' deformed bosons, which satisfy $a a^{\dagger} - q a^{\dagger} a = 1$, the extension involves a set of ...

On the 2-adic order of Stirling numbers of the second kind and their differences [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2009
Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers, $d(k)$ and $\nu_2(k)$ denote the number of ones in the binary representation of $k$ and the highest power of two dividing $k$, respectively.
