Baxter Algebras, Stirling Numbers and Partitions
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent developments of Baxter algebras have lead to applications to combinatorics, number theory and mathematical physics. We relate Baxter algebras to Stirling numbers of the first kind and the second kind, partitions and multinomial coefficients. This allows us to apply congruences from number theory to obtain congruences in Baxter algebras.

Stirling number of the fourth kind and lucky partitions of a finite set
The concept of Lucky k-polynomials and in particular Lucky χ-polynomials was recently introduced. This paper introduces Stirling number of the fourth kind and Lucky partitions of a finite set in order to determine either the Lucky k- or Lucky χ-polynomial of a graph. The integer partitions influence Stirling partitions of the second kind.

We describe the relation between graph decompositions into walks and the normal ordering of differential operators in the n-th Weyl algebra. Under several specifications, we study new types of restricted set partitions, and a generalization of Stirling numbers, which we call the λ-Stirling numbers.

Abstract. We investigate the diagonal generating function of the Jacobi-Stirling numbers of the second kind JS(n+ k, n; z) by generalizing the analogous results for the Stirling and Legendre-Stirling numbers. More precisely, letting JS(n + k, n; z) = pk,0(n) + pk,1(n)z + · · ·+ pk,k(n)z , we show that (1− t) ∑ n≥0 pk,i(n)t n is a polynomial in t with nonnegative integral coefficients and provid...
