Asymptotics of Chebyshev-Stirling and Stirling numbers of the second kind

, 2013
For the Chebyshev-Stirling numbers, a special case of the Jacobi-Stirling numbers, asymptotic formulae are derived in terms of a local central limit theorem. The underlying probabilistic approach also applies to the classical Stirling numbers of the second kind. Thereby a supplement of the asymptotic analysis for these numbers is established.

The effects of climate on bat morphology across space and time

Ecography, EarlyView.
According to Bergmann's and Allen's rules, climate change may drive morphological shifts in species, affecting body size and appendage length. These rules predict that species in colder climates tend to be larger and have shorter appendages to improve thermoregulation. Bats are thought to be sensitive to climate and are therefore expected to respond to

p-Adic integral on Z p $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ associated with degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind

Advances in Difference Equations, 2020
In this paper, by means of p-adic Volkenborn integrals we introduce and study two different degenerate versions of Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind, namely partially and fully degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind, and also their ...

An identity involving Bernoulli numbers and the Stirling numbers of the second kind [PDF]

Notes on Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics, 2019
Let $B_{r}$ denote the Bernoulli numbers, and $S(r,k)$ denote the Stirling numbers of the second kind. We prove the following identity$$ B_{2r} = (-1)^{r}\sum_{k=1}^{2r}\frac{(-1)^{k-1}\cdot (k-1)!}{k+1}\sum_{l=1}^{k}\frac{S(r,l)\, S(r,k-l)}{\binom{k}{l}}. $$To the best of our knowledge, the identity is new.

Relational Responsibility and Host Communities in Complex and Contentious Environmental Situations: Coastal Fisheries and Treated Water at the Fukushima Dai'ichi Nuclear Plant, Japan

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Treated water releases into the Pacific from the Fukushima Dai'ichi nuclear plant in Japan have drawn opposition from fishing communities, who accused proponents of acting irresponsibly in commencing releases before gaining local support. The controversy reflects questions in social licence to operate and social impact assessment about how ...

Energy, Exergy, Economic, and Environmental Analysis of the Reverse Osmosis Desalination System Using Photovoltaic Panels and Water Turbine, With the Approach of Design of Experiments

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The provision of drinking water as one of the basic human needs is of great importance now. Today, many people in different parts of the world, especially in remote and rural areas, do not have access to fresh water. These areas usually have a high potential for using renewable energy.

Parametric Study on the Performance of Gas Springs in FPSE With Pneumatic Supporting System

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The introduction of a pneumatic supporting system composed of gas springs and hydrostatic bearings in the free‐piston Stirling generator (FPSG) can effectively increase the power density of the nuclear space power plant. In this paper, a 1 kW FPSG with pneumatic supporting system was developed, and the working characteristics of dual gas ...

A new approach to the r-Whitney numbers by using combinatorial differential calculus

Acta Universitatis Sapientiae: Mathematica, 2019
In the present article we introduce two new combinatorial interpretations of the r-Whitney numbers of the second kind obtained from the combinatorics of the differential operators associated to the grammar G := {y → yxm, x → x}.
