Hierarchical Dobinski-type relations via substitution and the moment problem
We consider the transformation properties of integer sequences arising from
the normal ordering of exponentiated boson ([a,a*]=1) monomials of the form
exp(x (a*)^r a), r=1,2,..., under the composition of their exponential
generating functions (egf). They turn out to be of Sheffer-type. We demonstrate
that two key properties of these sequences remain preserved under
substitutional composition: (a)the property of being the solution of the
Stieltjes moment problem; and (b) the representation of these sequences through
infinite series (Dobinski-type relations). We present a number of examples of
such composition satisfying properties (a) and (b). We obtain new Dobinski-type
formulas and solve the associated moment problem for several hierarchically
defined combinatorial families of sequences.Comment: 14 pages, 31 reference
