The q-Stirling numbers of the second kind and its applications

open access: yesJournal of Nonlinear Sciences and Applications, 2018
Summary: The study of \(q\)-Stirling numbers of the second kind began with \textit{L. Carlitz} [Duke Math. J. 15, 987--1000 (1948; Zbl 0032.00304)]. Following Carlitz, we derive some identities and relations related to \(q\)-Stirling numbers of the second kind which appear to be either new or else new ways of expressing older ideas more comprehensively.

The We‐Relationship as a Key to Addressing Dementia‐Related Ambiguous Loss

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pauline Boss describes the challenges faced by people caring for family members with dementia in terms of ambiguous loss – a condition in which the physical presence of the person with dementia coexists with their psychological absence. This article proposes the concept of we‐relationship as a key to addressing dementia‐related ambiguous loss.

A Parametric Kind of Fubini Polynomials of a Complex Variable

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
In this paper, we propose a parametric kind of Fubini polynomials by defining the two specific generating functions. We also investigate some analytical properties (for example, summation formulae, differential formulae and relationships with other well ...

Poly-falling factorial sequences and poly-rising factorial sequences

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2021
In this paper, we introduce generalizations of rising factorials and falling factorials, respectively, and study their relations with the well-known Stirling numbers, Lah numbers, and so on.

Grouped Stakeholders' Journeys: A Dynamic Social Impact Theory Perspective

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While customer journey research is proliferating, acumen of the broader stakeholder journey (SJ), which addresses any stakeholder's (e.g., an employee's, supplier's, or customer's) journey with the firm, remains more nascent. In particular, understanding of the role of psychological mechanisms in shaping collective or grouped stakeholders ...

The Hankel Transform of q-Noncentral Bell Numbers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2015
We define two forms of q-analogue of noncentral Stirling numbers of the second kind and obtain some properties parallel to those of noncentral Stirling numbers.

Combinatorial interpretations of the Jacobi-Stirling numbers

open access: yes, 2009
The Jacobi-Stirling numbers of the first and second kinds were introduced in 2006 in the spectral theory and are polynomial refinements of the Legendre-Stirling numbers.

Investigating conservation performance payments alongside human–wildlife conflicts: The Swedish lynx and wolverine protection policies

open access: yesPeople 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.
