Umbral calculus, binomial enumeration and chromatic polynomials [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
We develop the concept of partition categories, in order to extend the Mullin-Rota theory of binomial enumeration, and simultaneously to provide a natural setting for recent applications of the Roman-Rota umbral calculus to computations in algebraic ...

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

Cumulative heatwave stress disrupts thermal homeostasis and plumage structure in a Mediterranean passerine

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 1960-1978, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Heatwaves are becoming increasingly frequent across the Mediterranean and pose critical challenges for small passerines, yet the physiological and morphological limits to their resilience remain poorly understood.

Some Identities on Degenerate Bernstein and Degenerate Euler Polynomials

open access: yesMathematics, 2019
In recent years, intensive studies on degenerate versions of various special numbers and polynomials have been done by means of generating functions, combinatorial methods, umbral calculus, p-adic analysis and differential equations.

Policy Windows in an Authoritarian System: How Alignment, Leadership Signals, and Disasters Enabled Policy Entrepreneurship in China's Poverty Alleviation

open access: yesReview of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT China's poverty alleviation campaign is significant. Over the past four decades, the number of people in China living below the international extreme‐poverty line fell by close to 800 million, accounting for nearly three‐quarters of the global reduction in extreme poverty.

An introduction to Umbral Calculus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The aim of these lectures is to give an introduction to combinatorial aspects of Umbral Calculus. Seen in this light, Umbral Calculus is a theory of polynomials that count combinatorial objects.

Towards the Centenary of Sheffer Polynomial Sequences: Old and Recent Results

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Sheffer’s work is about to turn 100 years after its publication. In reporting this important event, we recall some interesting old and recent results, aware of the incompleteness of the wide existing literature. Particularly, we recall Sheffer’s approach,

Forest type and leaf habit mediate thermal and drought tolerance across a tropical elevational gradient

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1933-1945, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understanding how local climate patterns select for thermal and drought tolerance traits is needed to predict differential responses to climate change across complex ecosystems.
