The Generalized Stirling and Bell Numbers Revisited

چکیده
The generalized Stirling numbers Ss;h(n, k) introduced recently by the authors are shown to be a special case of the three parameter family of generalized Stirling numbers S(n, k;α, β, r) considered by Hsu and Shiue. From this relation, several properties of Ss;h(n, k) and the associated Bell numbers Bs;h(n) and Bell polynomials Bs;h|n(x) are derived. The particular case s = 2 and h = −1 corresponding to the meromorphic Weyl algebra is treated explicitly and its connection to Bessel numbers and Bessel

Stirling Numbers and Generalized Zagreb Indices
We show how generalized Zagreb indices $M_1^k(G)$ can be computed by using a simple graph polynomial and Stirling numbers of the second kind. In that way we explain and clarify the meaning of a triangle of numbers used to establish the same result in an earlier reference.
متن کاملOn a New Family of Generalized Stirling and Bell Numbers
A new family of generalized Stirling and Bell numbers is introduced by considering powers (V U)n of the noncommuting variables U, V satisfying UV = V U +hV s. The case s = 0 (and h = 1) corresponds to the conventional Stirling numbers of second kind and Bell numbers. For these generalized Stirling numbers, the recursion relation is given and explicit expressions are derived. Furthermore, they a...
متن کاملTwo Formulas for Successive Derivatives and Their Applications
Abstract We recall two formulas, due to C. Jordan, for the successive derivatives of functions with an exponential or logarithmic inner function. We apply them to get addition formulas for the Stirling numbers of the second kind and for the Stirling numbers of the first kind. Then we show how one can obtain, in a simple way, explicit formulas for the generalized Euler polynomials, generalized E...
متن کاملThe generalized Touchard polynomials revisited
We discuss the generalized Touchard polynomials introduced recently by Dattoli et al. as well as their extension to negative order introduced by the authors with operationial methods. The connection to generalized Stirling and Bell numbers is elucidated and analogs to Burchnall’s identity are derived. A recursion relation for the generalized Touchard polynomials is established and it is shown t...
متن کاملA simple combinatorial interpretation of certain generalized Bell and Stirling numbers
In a series of papers, P. Blasiak et al. developed a wide-ranging generalization of Bell numbers (and of Stirling numbers of the second kind) that is relevant to the so-called Boson normal ordering problem. They provided a recurrence and, more recently, also offered a (fairly complex) combinatorial interpretation of these numbers. We show that by restricting the numbers somewhat (but still wide...
