Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The symmetric polynomials have various applications in many branches of mathematics and mathematical physics. These polynomials are defined by linear polynomials (differential relations), globally referred to as functional equations that arise in well-defined combinatorial contexts, and they lead systematically to well-defined classes of functions. The symmetric functions for the sequence of polynomials are used in analyzing sequences of functions, in finding a closed formula for a sequence, in finding recurrence relations and differential equations, in relationships between sequences, in asymptotic behavior of sequences, and in proving identities involving sequences.

We aim to design this special issue for researchers with an interest in pure and applied Mathematics. This special issue aims to present theory, methods, and applications of recent/current symmetric polynomials.

Each paper that will be published in this special issue aims at enriching the understanding of current research problems, theories, and applications on the chosen topics. The emphasis will be to present the basic developments concerning an idea in full detail, and also contain the most recent advances made in the area of symmetric functions and polynomials.

Advanced research on symmetric functions and polynomials is essential to study and model various changes in their natures. We will attempt to include some carefully selected papers in these areas of research that have significant applications. Much applicable mathematics cannot be investigated further or used without the applications of symmetric special functions and polynomials.

Thus, this special issue is expected to be beneficial for researchers who are interested in mathematics that has applications in pure and applied mathematics and uses tools mainly from the broad mathematical grouping.

Abstract
Recently, Kim-Kim (2019) introduced polyexponential and unipoly functions. By using these functions, they defined type 2 poly-Bernoulli and type 2 unipoly-Bernoulli polynomials and obtained some interesting properties of them.

A family F is an intersecting family if any two members have a nonempty intersection. Erdős, Ko, and Rado showed that | F | n 1 k 1 holds for a k-uniform intersecting family F of subsets of [ n ] . The Erdős-Ko-Rado theorem for non-uniform intersecting families of subsets of [ n ] of size at most k can be easily proved by applying the above result to each uniform subfamily of a given family. It establishes that | F | n 1 k 1 + n 1 k 2 + + n 1 0 holds for non-uniform intersecting families of subsets of [ n ] of size at most k. In this paper, we prove that the same upper bound of the Erdős-Ko-Rado Theorem for k-uniform intersecting families of subsets of [ n ] holds also in the non-uniform family of subsets of [ n ] of size at least k and at most n k with one more additional intersection condition. Our proof is based on the method of linearly independent polynomials. Full article

In recent years, many mathematicians studied various degenerate versions of some special polynomials for which quite a few interesting results were discovered. In this paper, we introduce the type 2 degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind and their higher-order analogues, and study some identities and expressions for these polynomials. Specifically, we obtain a relation between the type 2 degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second and the degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second, an identity involving higher-order analogues of those polynomials and the degenerate Stirling numbers of the second kind, and an expression of higher-order analogues of those polynomials in terms of the higher-order type 2 degenerate Bernoulli polynomials and the degenerate Stirling numbers of the first kind.

The main purpose of this paper is to use the Hardy–Littlewood method to study the solvability of mixed powers of primes. To be specific, we consider the even integers represented as the sum of one prime, one square of prime, one cube of prime, and one biquadrate of prime. However, this representation can not be realized for all even integers. In this paper, we establish the exceptional set of this kind of representation and give an upper bound estimate. Full article

The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study type 2 degenerate q-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers by virtue of the bosonic p-adic q-integrals. The obtained results are, among other things, several expressions for those polynomials, identities involving those numbers, identities regarding Carlitz’s q-Bernoulli numbers, identities concerning degenerate q-Bernoulli numbers, and the representations of the fully degenerate type 2 Bernoulli numbers in terms of moments of certain random variables, created from random variables with Laplace distributions. It is expected that, as was done in the case of type 2 degenerate Bernoulli polynomials and numbers, we will be able to find some identities of symmetry for those polynomials and numbers.

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.

The main aim of this paper is that for any second-order linear recurrence sequence, the generating function of which is f ( t ) = 1 1 + a t + b t 2 , we can give the exact coefficient expression of the power series expansion of f x ( t ) for x R with elementary methods and symmetry properties. On the other hand, if we take some special values for a and b, not only can we obtain the convolution formula of some important polynomials, but also we can establish the relationship between polynomials and themselves. For example, we can find relationship between the Chebyshev polynomials and Legendre polynomials. Full article

The main purpose of this paper is to give several identities of symmetry for type 2 Bernoulli and Euler polynomials by considering certain quotients of bosonic p-adic and fermionic p-adic integrals on Z p , where p is an odd prime number. Indeed, they are symmetric identities involving type 2 Bernoulli polynomials and power sums of consecutive odd positive integers, and the ones involving type 2 Euler polynomials and alternating power sums of odd positive integers. Furthermore, we consider two random variables created from random variables having Laplace distributions and show their moments are given in terms of the type 2 Bernoulli and Euler numbers.

Hong investigated the relationship between the minimax disparity minimum variance regular increasing monotone (RIM) quantifier problems. He also proved the equivalence of their solutions to minimum variance and minimax disparity RIM quantifier problems. Hong investigated the relationship between the minimax ratio and maximum entropy RIM quantifier problems and proved the equivalence of their solutions to the maximum entropy and minimax ratio RIM quantifier problems. Liu proposed a general RIM quantifier determination model and proved it analytically by using the optimal control technique. He also gave the equivalence of solutions to the minimax problem for the RIM quantifier. Recently, Hong proposed a modified model for the general minimax RIM quantifier problem and provided correct formulation of the result of Liu. Thus, we examine the general minimum model for the RIM quantifier problem when the generating functions are Lebesgue integrable under the more general assumption of the RIM quantifier operator. We also provide a solution equivalent relationship between the general maximum model and the general minimax model for RIM quantifier problems, which is the corrected and generalized version of the equivalence of solutions to the general maximum model and the general minimax model for RIM quantifier problems of Liu’s result.
