Abstract. Letĉ n be the nth Cauchy number of the second kind, defined by the generating function x/(1 + x) ln(1 + x) = ∞ n=0ĉ n x n /n!. We obtain explicit expressions for (ĉ l + c m ) n := n j =0 n j ĉ l+jĉm+n−j with arbitrary fixed integers l, m ≥ 0.

“…are sometimes called the Bernoulli numbers of the second kind (see, e.g., [1,17]). Such numbers have been studied by several authors (see [4,14,15,16,18]) because they are related to various special combinatorial numbers, including Stirling numbers of both kinds, Bernoulli numbers, and harmonic numbers. The poly-Cauchy numbers c …”
Abstract. Recently, the first author introduced the concept of poly-Cauchy numbers as a generalization of the classical Cauchy numbers and an analogue of poly-Bernoulli numbers. This concept has been generalized in various ways, including poly-Cauchy numbers with a q parameter. In this paper, we give a different kind of generalization called shifted poly-Cauchy numbers and investigate several arithmetical properties. Such numbers can be expressed in terms of original poly-Cauchy numbers. This concept is a kind of analogous ideas to that of Hurwitz zeta-functions compared to Riemann zeta-functions.

In this work, two new series expansions for generalized Euler's constants (Stieltjes constants) γ m are obtained. The first expansion involves Stirling numbers of the first kind, contains polynomials in π −2 with rational coefficients and converges slightly better than Euler's series ∑ n −2 . The second expansion is a semi-convergent series with rational coefficients only. This expansion is particularly simple and involves Bernoulli numbers with a non-linear combination of generalized harmonic numbers. It also permits to derive an interesting estimation for generalized Euler's constants, which is more accurate than several well-known estimations. Finally, in Appendix A, the reader will also find two simple integral definitions for the Stirling numbers of the first kind, as well an upper bound for them.
