On the coefficients of power sums of arithmetic progressions

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We investigate the coefficients of the polynomial Sm,rn(ℓ)=rn+(m+r)n+(2m+r)n+⋯+((ℓ−1)m+r)n. S_{m,r}^n(\ell)=r^n+(m+r)^n+(2m+r)^n+\cdots+((\ell-1)m+r)^n. We prove that these can be given in terms of Stirling numbers of the first kind and rr-Whitney numbers of the second kind. Moreover, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the integrity of these coefficients.
