Sums Of Powers

We prove that all the Faulhaber coefficients of a sum of odd power of elements of an arithmetic progression may simply be calculated from only one of them which is easily calculable from two Bernoulli polynomials as so as from power sums of integers. This gives two simple formulae for calculating them. As for sums related to even powers, they may be calculated simply from those related to the nearest odd one’s.

The Way

We show that a sum of powers on an arithmetic progression is the transform of a monomial by a differential operator and that its generating function is simply related to that of the Bernoulli polynomials from which consequently it may be calculated. Besides, we show that it is obtainable also from the sums of powers of integers, i.e. from the Bernoulli numbers which in turn may be calculated by a simple algorithm.By the way, for didactic purpose, operator calculus is utilized for proving in a concise manner the main properties of the Bernoulli polynomials.

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.

Abstract We derive eight identities of symmetry in three variables related to generalized twisted Bernoulli polynomials and generalized twisted power sums, both of which are twisted by ramified roots of unity. All of these are new, since there have been results only about identities of symmetry in two variables. The derivations of identities are based on the p-adic integral expression of the generating function for the generalized twisted Bernoulli polynomials and the quotient of p-adic integrals that can be expressed as the exponential generating function for the generalized twisted power sums.

By the properties ofp-adic invariant integral onℤp, we establish various identities concerning the generalized Bernoulli numbers and polynomials. From the symmetric properties ofp-adic invariant integral onℤp, we give some interesting relationship between the power sums and the generalized Bernoulli polynomials.

Congruence Classes

Consider the congruence class Rm(a) = {a + im : i ∈ Z} and the infinite arithmetic progression Pm(a) = {a + im : i ∈ N0}. For positive integers a,b,c,d,m the sum of products set Rm(a)Rm(b) + Rm(c)Rm(d) consists of all integers of the form (a+im) · (b+jm)+(c+km)(d+ℓm) for some i,j,k,ℓ ∈ Z. It is proved that if gcd (a,b,c,d,m) = 1, then Rm(a)Rm(b) + Rm(c)Rm(d) is equal to the congruence class Rm(ab+cd), and that the sum of products set Pm(a)Pm(b)+Pm(c)Pm eventually coincides with the infinite arithmetic progression Pm(ab+cd).

AbstractErdős and Odlyzko proved that odd integers k such that k2n+1 is prime for some positive integer n have a positive lower density. In this paper, we characterize all arithmetic progressions in which natural numbers that can be expressed in the form (p−1)2−n (where p is a prime number) have a positive proportion. We also prove that an arithmetic progression consisting of odd numbers can be obtained from a covering system if and only if those integers in such a progression which can be expressed in the form (p−1)2−n have an asymptotic density of zero.

In this paper, we investigate some identities on Bernoulli numbers and polynomials and those on degenerate Bernoulli numbers and polynomials arising from certain p-adic invariant integrals on Z p . In particular, we derive various expressions for the polynomials associated with integer power sums, called integer power sum polynomials and also for their degenerate versions. Further, we compute the expectations of an infinite family of random variables which involve the degenerate Stirling polynomials of the second and some value of higher-order Bernoulli polynomials.
