We work with a generalization of Stirling numbers of the second kind related to the boson normal ordering problem (P. Blasiak et al.). We show that these numbers appear as part of the coefficients of expressions in which certain sequences of products of binomials, together with their partial sums, are written as linear combinations of some other binomials. We show that the number arrays formed by these coefficients can be seen as natural generalizations of Pascal and Lucas triangles, since many of the known properties on rows, columns, falling diagonals and rising diagonals in Pascal and Lucas triangles, are also valid (some natural generalizations of them) in the arrays considered in this work. We also show that certain closed formulas for hyper-sums of powers of binomial coefficients appear in a natural way in these arrays.

We provide q-generalizations of Spivey?s Bell number formula in various settings by considering statistics on different combinatorial structures. This leads to new identities involving q-Stirling numbers of both kinds and q-Lah numbers. As corollaries, we obtain identities for both binomial and q-binomial coefficients. Our results at the same time also generalize recent r-Stirling number formulas of Mez?. Finally, we provide a combinatorial proof and refinement of Xu?s extension of Spivey?s formula to the generalized Stirling numbers of Hsu and Shiue. To do so, we develop a combinatorial interpretation for these numbers in terms of extended Lah distributions.

We show how the construction of t-transformation can be applied to the construction of a sequence of monotonically independent noncommutative random variables. We introduce the weakly monotone Fock space, on which these operators act. This space can be derived in a natural way from the papers by Pusz and Woronowicz on twisted second quantization. It was observed by Bożejko that, by taking μ = 0, for the μ-CAR relations one obtains the Muraki's monotone Fock space, while for the μ-CCR relations one obtains the weakly monotone Fock space. We show that the direct proof of the central limit theorem for these operators provides an interesting recurrence for the highest binomial coefficients. Moreover, we show the Poisson type theorem for these noncommutative random variables.

In this paper, we obtain a new formula for the sums of k-th powers of the first n positive integers, Sk(n), that involves the hyperharmonic numbers and the Stirling numbers of the second kind. Then, using an explicit representation for the hyperharmonic numbers, we generalize this formula to the sums of powers of an arbitrary arithmetic progression. Furthermore, we express the Bernoulli polynomials in terms of hyperharmonic polynomials and Stirling numbers of the second kind. Finally, we extend the obtained formula for Sk(n) to negative values of n.

This paper studies the generalizations of the Stirling numbers of both kinds and the Lah numbers in association with the normal ordering problem in the Weyl algebra $W=\langle x,D|Dx-xD=1\rangle$. Any word $\omega\in W$ with $m$ $x$'s and $n$ $D$'s can be expressed in the normally ordered form $\omega=x^{m-n}\sum_{k\ge 0} {{\omega}\brace {k}} x^{k}D^{k}$, where ${{\omega}\brace {k}}$ is known as the Stirling number of the second kind for the word $\omega$. This study considers the expansions of restricted words $\omega$ in $W$ over the sequences $\{(xD)^{k}\}_{k\ge 0}$ and $\{xD^{k}x^{k-1}\}_{k\ge 0}$. Interestingly, the coefficients in individual expansions turn out to be generalizations of the Stirling numbers of the first kind and the Lah numbers. The coefficients will be determined through enumerations of some combinatorial structures linked to the words $\omega$, involving decreasing forest decompositions of quasi-threshold graphs and non-attacking rook placements on Ferrers boards. Extended to $q$-analogues, weighted refinements of the combinatorial interpretations are also investigated for words in the $q$-deformed Weyl algebra.

The object of this paper is to show that generalized Stirling numbers can be effectively used to evaluate a class of combinatorial sums involving generalized factorials.
