Mellin Transforms of the Generalized Fractional Integrals and Derivatives

We obtain the Mellin transforms of the generalized fractional integrals and derivatives that generalize the Riemann-Liouville and the Hadamard fractional integrals and derivatives. We also obtain interesting results, which combine generalized $\delta_{r,m}$ operators with generalized Stirling numbers and Lah numbers. For example, we show that $\delta_{1,1}$ corresponds to the Stirling numbers of the $2^{nd}$ kind and $\delta_{2,1}$ corresponds to the unsigned Lah numbers. Further, we show that the two operators $\delta_{r,m}$ and $\delta_{m,r}$, $r,m\in\mathbb{N}$, generate the same sequence given by the recurrence relation $$S(n,k)=\sum_{i=0}^r \big(m+(m-r)(n-2)+k-i-1\big)_{r-i}\binom{r}{i} S(n-1,k-i), \;\; 0< k\leq n,$$ with $S(0,0)=1$ and $S(n,0)=S(n,k)=0$ for $n>0$ and $1+min\{r,m\}(n-1) < k$ or $k\leq 0$. Finally, we define a new class of sequences for $r \in \{\frac{1}{3}, \frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{6}, ...\}$ and in turn show that $\delta_{\frac{1}{2},1}$ corresponds to the generalized Laguerre polynomials.Comment: 17 pages, 1 figure, 9 tables, Accepted for publication in Applied Mathematics and Computatio

Identities via Bell matrix and Fibonacci matrix

AbstractIn this paper, we study the relations between the Bell matrix and the Fibonacci matrix, which provide a unified approach to some lower triangular matrices, such as the Stirling matrices of both kinds, the Lah matrix, and the generalized Pascal matrix. To make the results more general, the discussion is also extended to the generalized Fibonacci numbers and the corresponding matrix. Moreover, based on the matrix representations, various identities are derived

Elliptic rook and file numbers

Utilizing elliptic weights, we construct an elliptic analogue of rook numbers for Ferrers boards. Our elliptic rook numbers generalize Garsia and Remmel's q-rook numbers by two additional independent parameters a and b, and a nome p. These are shown to satisfy an elliptic extension of a factorization theorem which in the classical case was established by Goldman, Joichi and White and later was extended to the q-case by Garsia and Remmel. We obtain similar results for our elliptic analogues of Garsia and Remmel's q-file numbers for skyline boards. We also provide an elliptic extension of the j-attacking model introduced by Remmel and Wachs. Various applications of our results include elliptic analogues of (generalized) Stirling numbers of the first and second kind, Lah numbers, Abel numbers, and r-restricted versions thereof.Comment: 45 pages; 3rd version shortened (elliptic rook theory for matchings has been taken out to keep the length of this paper reasonable

Some observations on the Lah and Laguerre transforms of integer sequences

We study the Lah and related Laguerre transforms within the context of exponential Riordan arrays. Links to the Stirling numbers are explored. Results for finite matrices are generalized, leading to a number of useful matrix factorizations

Some combinatorial identities involving noncommuting variables

International audienceWe derive combinatorial identities for variables satisfying specific sets of commutation relations. The identities thus obtained extend corresponding ones for $q$-commuting variables $x$ and $y$ satisfying $yx=qxy$. In particular, we obtain weight-dependent binomial theorems, functional equations for generalized exponential functions, we propose a derivative of noncommuting variables, and finally utilize one of the considered weight functions to extend rook theory. This leads us to an extension of the $q$-Stirling numbers of the second kind, and of the $q$-Lah numbers.Nous obtenons des identités combinatoires pour des variables satisfaisant des ensembles spécifiques de relations de commutation. Ces identités ainsi obtenues généralisent leurs analogues pour des variables $q$-commutantes $x$ et $y$ satisfaisant $yx=qxy$. En particulier, nous obtenons des théorèmes binomiaux dépendant du poids, des équations fonctionnelles pour les fonctions exponentielles généralisées, nous proposons une dérivée des variables non-commutatives, et finalement nous utilisons l’une des fonctions de poids considérées pour étendre la théorie des tours. Nous en déduisons une généralisation des $q$-nombres de Stirling de seconde espèce et des $q$-nombres de Lah
