We employ the orthonormality of the Legendre polynomials to deduce binomial identities. The harmonic numbers Hn are connected with the derivatives of binomial coefficients, this fact allows to deduce identities involving the Hn.Kathmandu University Journal of Science, Engineering and TechnologyVol. 13, No. 2, 2017, page: 92-97

The main aim of this paper is to present and analyze a numerical algorithm for the solution of eighth-order boundary value problems. The proposed solutions are spectral and they depend on a new operational matrix of derivatives of certain shifted Legendre polynomial basis, along with the application of the collocation method. The nonzero elements of the operational matrix are expressed in terms of the well-known harmonic numbers. Numerical examples provide favorable comparisons with other existing methods and ascertain the efficiency and applicability of the proposed algorithm.

In this study, depending on the upper and the lower indices of the hyperharmonic number h(r), nonlinear recurrence relations are obtained. It is shown that generalized harmonic numbers and hyperharmonic numbers can be obtained from derivatives of the binomial coefficients. Taking into account of difference and derivative operators, several identities of the harmonic and hyperharmonic numbers are given. Negative-ordered hyperharmonic numbers are defined and their alternative representations are given.

Euler related results on the sum of the ratio of harmonic numbers and cubed binomial coefficients are investigated in this paper. Integral and closed-form representation of sums are developed in terms of zeta and polygamma functions. The given representations are new.

AbstractDifferentiation of the well-known addition theorem for Legendre polynomials produces results for sums over order m of products of various derivatives of associated Legendre functions. The same method is applied to the corresponding addition theorems for vector and tensor spherical harmonics. Results are also given for Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind, corresponding to ‘spin-weighted’ associated Legendre functions, as used in studies of distributions of rotations.

In 2017, Bing He investigated arithmetic properties to obtain various basic congruences modulo a prime for several alternating sums involving harmonic numbers and binomial coefficients. In this paper we study how we can obtain more congruences modulo a power of a prime number p (super congruences) in the ring of p-integer \mathbb{Z}_{p} involving binomial coefficients and generalized harmonic numbers.

The associated Legendre functions are defined using the Legendre numbers. From these the associated Legendre polynomials are obtained and the derivatives of these polynomials atx=0are derived by using properties of the Legendre numbers. These derivatives are then used to expand the associated Legendre polynomials andxnin series of Legendre polynomials. Other applications include evaluating certain integrals, expressing polynomials as linear combinations of Legendre polynomials, and expressing linear combinations of Legendre polynomials as polynomials. A connection between Legendre and Pascal numbers is also given.

The Legendre numbers, an infinite set of rational numbers are defined from the associated Legendre functions and several elementary properties are presented. A general formula for the Legendre numbers is given. Applications include summing certain series of Legendre numbers and evaluating certain integrals. Legendre numbers are used to obtain the derivatives of all orders of the Legendre polynomials atx=1.
