Euler-Pascal/Cube

Triangles Series-ly Euler-Pascal/Cube Meaning? Sources

 

Jacob Bernoulli saw a "peculiar sympathy" in power series' inter-relationships (Edwards p. 133).  The algorithm that generates formulas for power values (that is Worpitzky's Identity of 1883) logically also generates formulas for values that are summations of powers (where Bernoulli numbers come into play) as well as shells or nexus number series and more.  Sympathy between and among series is 'three dimensional'!  Use the Search Page (which works a little bit) to call up particular A000000 Sloane series in these pages.  Worpitzky's formulaic procedure (see below) regards the figurate numbers of Pascal's Triangle along with values of rows of Euler's Triangle and may be the figurate number relationships that Fermat and Pascal were discussing for sums of powers (Pengelley p. 4).  For more:  Pascal and Fermat, Historically.

SUMMARY OF THE EULER/PASCAL CUBE: 

 

1) The (Worpitzky/Euler/Pascal Cube) “SeriesAtLevelR” algorithm is:

Sum [Eulerian[n, i - 1]*Binomial[n + x - i + r, n + r], {i , 1, n}]

Offset: (1,1, 0-->relative to the powers) for (x, n, r)   FOR POSITIVE INTEGERS

 

SEE EXAMPLE PAGE

 

Due to figurate number content within recursively accumulating series that exist for each power level, Worpitzky’s identity of 1883—which is based upon figurate numbers—not only will define values that are power values, but also will logically apply to sequences that are shells (of shells) [i.e., nexus numbers or difference sequences of powers] as well as summations (of summations) of power series.

The “SeriesAtLevelR” algorithm is Worpitzky’s ID at r = 0 and defines nexus number/shell values when r < 0 and summations (of summations . . .) of powers when r > 0.

 

2) The (Worpitzky/Euler/Pascal Cube) “MagicNKZ” algorithm is:

Sum [(-1)^j*Binomial[n + 1 - z, j]*(k - j + 1)^n, {j, 0, k+1}]

Offset: (0,1,0) for (k, n, z)

 

SEE EXAMPLE PAGE

 

In order to generate sequences that are Euler Triangle rows (see A008292) or accumulations from Euler Triangle rows, values of Euler/Pascal cube series are defined with the variables of nth power level, kth order of occurrence and zth accumulation level. The generating algorithm is based upon binomial definitions for Euler Triangle values. Rows of Euler’s Triangle are given when z = 0. The number of summations from an initial Euler Triangle row is “enumerated” by the value that is z.

 

“SeriesAtLevelR” and “MagicNKZ” produce logically reciprocating formulas when solving for either x and k and/or r and z variables since the differently generated equations describe the same Euler/Pascal Cube series (and logically inform each other).
