We study the log-concavity of a sequence of [Formula: see text]-binomial coefficients located on a ray of the [Formula: see text]-Pascal triangle for certain directions, and we establish the preserving log-concavity of linear transformations associated to [Formula: see text]-Pascal triangle.

Dedicated to the memory of Russell Towle, a remarkable man who contributed so much to geometry and to other aspects of the quality of life.We introduce an expanded notation where r + s = n, for the binomial coefficient , and then use this expanded notation to develop theorems involving 8 binomial coefficients, analogous to the Star of David Theorem, which. in its original form, involved the 6 neighbours of a given binomial coefficient in the Pascal Triangle (see Section 3), that appeared in [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9].

The theorems of Gauss and Jacobi that give modulo [Formula: see text] evaluations of certain central binomial coefficients have been extended, since the 1980s, to more classes of binomial coefficients and to congruences modulo [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we further extend these results to congruences modulo [Formula: see text]. In the process, we prove congruences to arbitrarily high powers of [Formula: see text] for certain quotients of Gauss factorials that resemble binomial coefficients and are related to Morita's [Formula: see text]-adic gamma function. These congruences are of a simple form and involve Catalan numbers as coefficients.

We introduce a notion of $q$ -deformed rational numbers and $q$ -deformed continued fractions. A $q$ -deformed rational is encoded by a triangulation of a polygon and can be computed recursively. The recursive formula is analogous to the $q$ -deformed Pascal identity for the Gaussian binomial coefficients, but the Pascal triangle is replaced by the Farey graph. The coefficients of the polynomials defining the $q$ -rational count quiver subrepresentations of the maximal indecomposable representation of the graph dual to the triangulation. Several other properties, such as total positivity properties, $q$ -deformation of the Farey graph, matrix presentations and $q$ -continuants are given, as well as a relation to the Jones polynomial of rational knots.

The number of binomial coefficients , which are congruent to j , 0 ≤ j ≤ p − 1, modulo the prime number p is denoted by θj(n). In this paper we give systems of simultaneous linear difference equations with constant coefficients whose solutions would yield the quantities θj(n) explicitly.

Binomial coefficients have been used for centuries in a variety of fields and have accumulated numerous definitions. In this paper, we introduce a new way of defining binomial coefficients as repeated sums of ones. A multitude of binomial coefficient identities will be shown in order to prove this definition. Using this new definition, we simplify some particular sums such as the repeated Harmonic sum and the repeated Binomial-Harmonic sum. We derive formulae for simplifying general <i> repeated sums</i> as well as a variant containing binomial coefficients. Additionally, we study the \(m\)-th difference of a sequence and show how sequences whose \(m\)-th difference is constant can be related to binomial coefficients.

Let $[T(n,k)]_{n,k\geqslant0}$ be a triangle of positive numbers satisfying the three-term recurrence relation\[T(n,k)=(a_1n+a_2k+a_3)T(n-1,k)+(b_1n+b_2k+b_3)T(n-1,k-1).\]In this paper, we give a new sufficient condition for linear transformations\[Z_n(q)=\sum_{k=0}^{n}T(n,k)X_k(q)\]that preserves the strong $q$-log-convexity of polynomials sequences. As applications, we show linear transformations, given by matrices of the binomial coefficients, the Stirling numbers of the first kind and second kind, the Whitney numbers of the first kind and second kind, preserving the strong $q$-log-convexity in a unified manner.

In the paper, the author presents three integral representations of extended central binomial coefficient, proves decreasing and increasing properties of two power-exponential functions involving extended (central) binomial coefficients, derives several double inequalities for bounding extended (central) binomial coefficient, and compares with known results.
