On the combinatorics of hypergeometric functions

We deliver here second new $\textit{H(x)}-binomials'$ recurrence formula, were $H(x)-binomials' $ array is appointed by $Ward-Horadam$ sequence of functions which in predominantly considered cases where chosen to be polynomials . Secondly, we supply a review of selected related combinatorial interpretations of generalized binomial coefficients. We then propose also a kind of transfer of interpretation of $p,q-binomial $ coefficients onto $q-binomial$ coefficients interpretati...

We present some families of polynomials related to the moments of weight functions of hypergeometric type. We also consider different types of generating functions, and give several examples.

The main object of this work is to show how some rather elementary techniques based upon certain inverse pairs of symbolic operators would lead us easily to several decomposition formulas associated with confluent hypergeometric functions of two and more variables. Many operator identities involving these pairs of symbolic operators are first constructed for this purpose. By means of these operator identities several decomposition formulas are found, which express the aforeme...

The coefficient of x^{-1} of a formal Laurent series f(x) is called the formal residue of f(x). Many combinatorial numbers can be represented by the formal residues of hypergeometric terms. With these representations and the extended Zeilberger's algorithm, we generate recurrence relations for summations involving combinatorial sequences such as Stirling numbers. As examples, we give computer proofs of several known identities and derive some new identities. The applicability...

Hypergeometric functions over finite fields were introduced by Greene in the 1980s as a finite field analogue of classical hypergeometric series. These functions, and their generalizations, naturally lend themselves to, and have been widely used in, character sum evaluations and counting points on algebraic varieties. More interestingly, perhaps, are their links to Fourier coefficients of modular forms. In this paper, we outline the main results in this area and also conjectu...

We define the generalized basic hypergeometric polynomial of degree $N \geq 1$ in terms of the generalized basic hypergeometric function, which depends on (arbitrary, generic, possibly complex) parameters $q \neq 1$, the $r \geq 0$ parameters $\alpha _{j}$ and the $s \geq 0$ parameters $\beta _{k}$. In this paper we obtain a set of $N$ nonlinear algebraic equations satisfied by the $N$ zeros $\zeta _{n}\equiv \zeta _{n}\left( \underline{\alpha },\underline{\beta };q;N\right) ...

In this paper we present several natural $q$-analogues of the poly-Bernoulli numbers arising in combinatorial contexts. We also recall some relating analytical results and ask for combinatorial interpretations.

This paper aims to construct a new family of numbers and polynomials which are related to the Bell numbers and polynomials by means of the confluent hypergeometric function. We give various properties of these numbers and polynomials (generating functions, explicit formulas, integral representations, recurrence relations, probabilistic representation,...). We also derive some combinatorial sums including the generalized Bernoulli polynomials, lower incomplete gamma function, ...

In the present article a new method of deriving integral representations of combinations and partitions in terms of harmonic products has been established. This method may be relevant to statistical mechanics and to number theory.

Integral representations of hypergeometric functions proved to be a very useful tool for studying their properties. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we extend the known representations to arbitrary values of the parameters and show that the extended representations can be interpreted as examples of regularizations of integrals containing Meijer's $G$ function. Second, we give new applications of both, known and extended representations. These include: inverse fact...
