Asymptotics of Stirling and Chebyshev‐Stirling Numbers of the Second Kind
Studies in Applied Mathematics, 2014 For the classical Stirling numbers of the second kind, asymptotic formulae are derived in terms of a local central limit theorem. The underlying probabilistic approach also applies to the Chebyshev–Stirling numbers, a special case of the Jacobi–Stirling numbers.

Navigating ESG in the Artificial Intelligence Era: Evidence From AI Pilot Zones in China
International Studies of Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence is reshaping business models, but limited literature explores how ESG evolves in the AI era. This paper regards AI Pilot Zones in China as a quasi‐natural experiment, and adopts the DID approach to investigate its impact on corporate ESG performance. Using the sample of Chinese A‐share listed companies from 2016 to 2022,

Convolution Identities of Stirling Numbers
Utilitas MathematicaBy means of the generating function method, a linear recurrence relation is explicitly resolved. The solution is expressed in terms of the Stirling numbers of both the first and the second kind. Two remarkable pairs of combinatorial identities (Theorems 3.1 and 3.3) are established as applications, that contain some well–known convolution formulae on ...

No App, No Entry: Conceptualizing Digital Technology Captivity in Service Access
Psychology &Marketing, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We introduce Digital Technology Captivity (DTC), a form of consumer vulnerability that arises when digital technologies become the mandatory gateway to essential services. When access is tied to systems that feel unfamiliar, complex, or intimidating—and when preferred alternatives are limited—consumers may experience heightened vulnerability ...

Generalized Stirling Numbers and Generalized Stirling Functions
, 2011 Here presented is a unified approach to Stirling numbers and their generalizations as well as generalized Stirling functions by using generalized factorial functions, $k$-Gamma functions, and generalized divided difference. Previous well-known extensions of Stirling numbers due to Riordan, Carlitz, Howard, Charalambides-Koutras, Gould-Hopper, Hsu-Shiue,

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Conservation performance payments are becoming an increasingly popular instrument to tackle human–wildlife conflicts. In Sweden, Sámi communities practicing reindeer husbandry receive performance payments as compensation for reindeer losses caused by lynxes and wolverines.
