    We deliver here second new H(x)βˆ’binomialsβ€²\textit{H(x)}-binomials' recurrence formula, were H(x)βˆ’binomialsβ€²H(x)-binomials' array is appointed by Wardβˆ’HoradamWard-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,qβˆ’binomialp,q-binomial coefficients onto qβˆ’binomialq-binomial coefficients interpretations thus bringing us back to GyoΒ¨rgyPoˊlyaGy{\"{o}}rgy P\'olya and Donald Ervin Knuth relevant investigation decades ago.Comment: 57 pages, 8 figure

    Polynomial Triangles Revisited

    Full text link
    A polynomial triangle is an array whose inputs are the coefficients in integral powers of a polynomial. Although polynomial coefficients have appeared in several works, there is no systematic treatise on this topic. In this paper we plan to fill this gap. We describe some aspects of these arrays, which generalize similar properties of the binomial coefficients. Some combinatorial models enumerated by polynomial coefficients, including lattice paths model, spin chain model and scores in a drawing game, are introduced. Several known binomial identities are then extended. In addition, we calculate recursively generating functions of column sequences. Interesting corollaries follow from these recurrence relations such as new formulae for the Fibonacci numbers and Hermite polynomials in terms of trinomial coefficients. Finally, properties of the entropy density function that characterizes polynomial coefficients in the thermodynamical limit are studied in details.Comment: 24 pages with 1 figure eps include
