Some results on p-adic valuations of Stirling numbers of the second kind

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics, 2020
Let $n$ and $k$ be nonnegative integers. The Stirling number of the second kind, denoted by $S(n, k)$, is defined as the number of ways to partition a set of $n$ elements into exactly $k$ nonempty subsets and we have $$ S(n, k)=\frac{1}{k!}\sum_{i=0}^{k}(

Congruences for the Stirling numbers and associated Stirling numbers [PDF]

open access: yesActa Arithmetica, 1990
Let s(n,k) and S(n,k) be the Stirling numbers of the first and second kind, respectively. The author proves that if \(k+n\) is odd, then \[ s(n,k)\equiv 0 (mod\left( \begin{matrix} n\\ 2\end{matrix} \right)),\quad S(n,k)\equiv 0 (mod\left( \begin{matrix} k+1\\ 2\end{matrix} \right)).

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 ...

Generalized Fock spaces and the Stirling numbers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Bargmann-Fock-Segal space plays an important role in mathematical physics, and has been extended into a number of directions. In the present paper we imbed this space into a Gelfand triple. The spaces forming the Fr\'echet part (i.e.

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 ...

Combinatorially interpreting generalized Stirling numbers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Let $w$ be a word in alphabet $\{x,D\}$ with $m$ $x$'s and $n$ $D$'s. Interpreting "$x$" as multiplication by $x$, and "$D$" as differentiation with respect to $x$, the identity $wf(x) = x^{m-n}\sum_k S_w(k) x^k D^k f(x)$, valid for any smooth function ...

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 ...
