Derivative Polynomials, Euler Polynomials, and Associated Integer Sequences

چکیده
Let Pn and Qn be the polynomials obtained by repeated differentiation of the tangent and secant functions respectively. From the exponential generating functions of these polynomials we develop relations among their values, which are then applied to various numerical sequences which occur as values of the Pn and Qn. For example, Pn(0) and Qn(0) are respectively the nth tangent and secant numbers, while Pn(0) +Qn(0) is the nth André number. The André numbers, along with the numbers Qn(1) and Pn(1) − Qn(1), are the Springer numbers of root systems of types An, Bn, and Dn respectively, or alternatively (following V. I. Arnol’d) count the number of “snakes” of these types. We prove this for the latter two cases using combinatorial arguments. We relate the values of Pn and Qn at √ 3 to certain “generalized Euler and class numbers” of D. Shanks, which have a combinatorial interpretation in terms of 3-signed permutations as defined by R. Ehrenborg and M. A. Readdy. Finally, we express the values of Euler polynomials at any rational argument in terms of Pn and Qn, and from this deduce formulas for Springer and Shanks numbers in terms of Euler polynomials.

Viewing Some Ordinary Differential Equations from the Angle of Derivative Polynomials
In the paper, the authors view some ordinary differential equations and their solutions from the angle of (the generalized) derivative polynomials and simplify some known identities for the Bernoulli numbers and polynomials, the Frobenius-Euler polynomials, the Euler numbers and polynomials, in terms of the Stirling numbers of the first and second kinds.

متن کاملEuler - Maclaurin Formula
a Bk({1− t}) k! f (t)dt where a and b are arbitrary real numbers with difference b − a being a positive integer number, Bn and bn are Bernoulli polynomials and numbers, respectively, and k is any positive integer. The condition we impose on the real function f is that it should have continuous k-th derivative. The symbol {x} for a real number x denotes the fractional part of x. Proof of this th...
متن کاملNote on q-Extensions of Euler Numbers and Polynomials of Higher Order
In [14] Ozden-Simsek-Cangul constructed generating functions of higher-order twisted (h, q)-extension of Euler polynomials and numbers, by using p-adic q-deformed fermionic integral on Zp. By applying their generating functions, they derived the complete sums of products of the twisted (h, q)-extension of Euler polynomials and numbers, see[13, 14]. In this paper we cosider the new q-extension o...
متن کاملOn power series, Bell polynomials, Hardy-Ramanujan-Rademacher problem and its statistical applications
A possibly unknown approach to the problem of finding the common term of a power series is considered. A direct formula for evaluating this common term has been obtained. This formula provides useful expressions for direct evaluation of the number of partitions of a nonnegative integer and the partitions themselves. These expressions permit easily to work with power series, evaluate nth derivat...
