Several formulas for special values of the Bell polynomials of the second kind and applications

In the paper, the authors establish several explicit formulas for special values of the Bell polynomials of the second kind, connect these formulas with the Bessel polynomials, and apply these formulas to give new expressions for the Catalan numbers and to compute arbitrary higher order derivatives of elementary functions such as the since, cosine, exponential, logarithm, arcsine, and arccosine of the square root for the variable.     

Plethystic Exponential Polynomials and Plethystic Stirling Numbers

In this article we introduce a plethystic generalization of the exponential polynomials and their umbral inverses. We obtain recursive formulas for both families of polynomials, and use them to get recursions for the plethystic Stirling numbers of the first and second kind and for the plethystic Bell numbers. Finally, we apply Bergeron's S-species to obtain a Dobinsky formula for the plethystic exponential polynomials and a close formula for the plethystic Stirling numbers of the second kind.

In this paper, we define a class of strongly connected digraph, called the k-walk- regular digraph, study some properties of it, provide its some algebraic characterization and point out that the 0-walk-regular digraph is the same as the walk-regular digraph discussed by Liu and Lin in 2010 and the D-walk-regular digraph is identical with the weakly distance-regular digraph defined by Comellas et al in 2004.     

An explicit formula for generalized potential polynomials and its applications

We define the generalized potential polynomials associated to an independent variable, and prove an explicit formula involving the generalized potential polynomials and the exponential Bell polynomials. We use this formula to describe closed type formulas for the higher order Bernoulli, Eulerian, Euler, Genocchi, Apostol-Bernoulli, Apostol-Euler polynomials and the polynomials involving the Stirling numbers of the second kind. As further applications, we derive several known identities involving the Bernoulli numbers and polynomials and Euler polynomials, and new relations for the higher order tangent numbers, the higher order Bernoulli numbers of the second kind, the numbers , the higher order Bernoulli numbers and polynomials and the higher order Euler polynomials and their coefficients.

A series of inequalities involving Stirling numbers of the first and second kinds with adjacent indices are obtained. Some of them show log-concavity of Stirling numbers in three different directions.

Sharp error estimates for the numerical differentiation formulas on the classes of entire functions of exponential type

We establish sharp error estimates for some numerical di.erentiation formulas on the classes of entire functions of exponential type. The estimates strengthen some classical sharp inequalities of approximation theory.     

Some inequalities for the Bell numbers

In this paper, we present derivatives of the generating functions for the Bell numbers by induction and by the Faà di Bruno formula, recover an explicit formula in terms of the Stirling numbers of the second kind, find the (logarithmically) absolute and complete monotonicity of the generating functions, and construct some inequalities for the Bell numbers. From these inequalities, we derive the logarithmic convexity of the sequence of the Bell numbers.     

Peters type polynomials and numbers and their generating functions: Approach with p‐adic integral method

The aim of this paper is to introduce and investigate some of the primary generalizations and unifications of the Peters polynomials and numbers by means of convenient generating functions and p‐adic integrals method. Various fundamental properties of these polynomials and numbers involving some explicit series and integral representations in terms of the generalized Stirling numbers, generalized harmonic sums, and some well‐known special numbers and polynomials are presented. By using p‐adic integrals, we construct generating functions for Peters type polynomials and numbers (Apostol‐type Peters numbers and polynomials). By using these functions with their partial derivative eqautions and functional equations, we derive many properties, relations, explicit formulas, and identities including the Apostol‐Bernoulli polynomials, the Apostol‐Euler polynomials, the Boole polynomials, the Bernoulli polynomials, and numbers of the second kind, generalized harmonic sums. A brief revealing and historical information for the Peters type polynomials are given. Some of the formulas given in this article are given critiques and comments between previously well‐known formulas. Finally, two open problems for interpolation functions for Apostol‐type Peters numbers and polynomials are revealed.

A closed formula for the generating function of p-Bernoulli numbers

Abstract

In this paper, using geometric polynomials, we obtain a generating function of p-Bernoulli numbers in terms of harmonic numbers. As consequences of this generating function, we derive closed formulas for the finite summation of Bernoulli and harmonic numbers involving Stirling numbers of the second kind. We also give a relationship between the p-Bernoulli numbers and the generalized Bernoulli polynomials.     

Non-central stirling numbers and some applications

Non-central Stirling numbers of the first and second kind are introduced and corresponding representations and recurrences are given along with some applications in occupancy problems and discrete distribution theory.     

Degenerate Bernoulli polynomials, generalized factorial sums, and their applications

We prove a general symmetric identity involving the degenerate Bernoulli polynomials and sums of generalized falling factorials, which unifies several known identities for Bernoulli and degenerate Bernoulli numbers and polynomials. We use this identity to describe some combinatorial relations between these polynomials and generalized factorial sums. As further applications we derive several identities, recurrences, and congruences involving the Bernoulli numbers, degenerate Bernoulli numbers, generalized factorial sums, Stirling numbers of the first kind, Bernoulli numbers of higher order, and Bernoulli numbers of the second kind.     

Touchard like polynomials and generalized Stirling numbers

The theory of Touchard polynomials is generalized using a method based on the definition of exponential operators, which extend the notion of the shift operator. The proposed technique, along with the use of the relevant operational formalism, allows the straightforward derivation of properties of this family of polynomials and their relationship to different forms of Stirling numbers.     

On some expansions for the Euler Gamma function and the Riemann Zeta function

In the present paper we introduce some expansions which use the falling factorials for the Euler Gamma function and the Riemann Zeta function. In the proofs we use the Faá di Bruno formula, Bell polynomials, potential polynomials, Mittag-Leffler polynomials, derivative polynomials and special numbers (Eulerian numbers and Stirling numbers of both kinds). We investigate the rate of convergence of the series and give some numerical examples.
