Factorial and binomial topics

Central binomial coefficient

In mathematics the nth central binomial coefficient is the particular binomial coefficient They are called central since they show up exactly in the middle of the even-numbered rows in Pascal's triangle. The first few central binomial coefficients starting at n = 0 are: 1, 2, 6, 20, 70, 252, 924, 3432, 12870, 48620, ...; (sequence in the OEIS) (Wikipedia).

So many factorials!!!

We evaluate the sum of a series involving multiple instances of differing factorials. Our approach involves the central binomial coefficient, generating functions, and trigonometric integrals. Please Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/michaelpennmath?sub_confirmation=1 Merch: https://tee

The Binomial Chu Vandermonde Identity: a new unification? | Algebraic Calculus Two | Wild Egg Maths

We suggest a novel unification of the Binomial and Chu Vandermonde identities, leading to an unusual introduction of the exponential polyseries, along with Newton's reciprocal polyseries. The main idea is to introduce a generalization of Knuth's rising and falling powers notation, which w

Binomial coefficients and related functions | Arithmetic and Geometry Math Foundations 55

Binomial coefficients are the numbers that appear in the Binomial theorem, and also in Pasal's triangle. They are also naturally related to paths in Pascal's array, essentially the difference table associated to the triangular numbers. We also relate binomial coefficients to the rising and

Counter-Intuitive Probability Puzzle: Random Walkers Meeting On A Grid

Alice and Bob start at opposite corners of a 5x5 grid. Alice moves up/right randomly and Bob moves down/left randomly. What is the chance they meet? What happens for an nxn grid? As n goes to infinity, the answer is interesting and involves pi! Watch the video for the solution. My blog po

Topics in Combinatorics lecture 3.6 --- bounds for factorials and binomial coefficients

Combinatorics is full of estimates, and for many of them one needs bounds on factorials and binomial coefficients. Fortunately, one can often get away with fairly crude bounds that have straightforward proofs. Here I discuss some of these bounds. 0:00 Introduction and brief struggle with

Newton's Polyseries and the Harriot-Pascal Array | Algebraic Calculus Two 2 | Wild Egg Maths

We introduce the famous binomial series of Newton, extending the Binomial theorem to rational values of the exponent. With the Algebraic Calculus approach, we cannot interpret this formula in the usual way, as we have to stick with concrete arithmetic involving rational numbers. However we

We report on further investigations of combinatorial sequences in form of integral ratios of factorials. We conceive these integers as Hausdorff power moments for weights W (x), concentrated on the support x ∈ (0, R), and we solve this mo- ment problem by furnishing the exact expressions f
