A Probabilistic Approach to Some Binomial Identities
Elementary proofs abound: simply choose x = y = 1 in the binomial expansion of (x + y). The reader is surely aware of many other proofs, including some combinatorial in nature. At the end of the previous century, the evaluation of these sums was trivialized by the work of H. Wilf and D. Zeilberger [7]. In the preface to the charming book [7], the authors begin with the phrase You’ve been up all...
متن کاملA Probabilistic Approach to Some of Eui,er's Number Theoretic Identities
Probabilistic proofs and interpretations are given for the q-binomial theorem, q-binomial series, two of Euler's fundamental partition identities, and for q-analogs of product expansions for the Riemann zeta and Euler phi functions. The underlying processes involve Bernoulli trials with variable probabilities. Also presented are several variations on the classical derangement problem inherent i...
متن کاملCombinatorial Proofs of Some Simons-type Binomial Coefficient Identities
We provide elementary bijective proofs of some curious binomial coefficient identities which were obtained using Cauchy’s integral formula.
متن کاملSome Identities involving the Partial Sum of q-Binomial Coefficients
We give some identities involving sums of powers of the partial sum of q-binomial coefficients, which are q-analogues of Hirschhorn’s identities [Discrete Math. 159 (1996), 273–278] and Zhang’s identity [Discrete Math. 196 (1999), 291–298].
