Graduate What Is Lockwood's Identity and How Does It Relate to Pascal's Triangle?
aw the proof that we made seems wrong. i'm afraid that we may fail the subject if we don't have the proof. i tried to contact the author of the article but he didn't respond. using induction, x^n+ y^n=(x+y)^n+ ∑_(k=0)^⌊n/2⌋▒〖(-1)〗^k [((n-k)¦k) + ((n-k-1)¦(k-1)) ] (xy)^k (x+y)^(n-2k) how can...- robimaru

Graduate What Is Lockwood's Identity and How Does It Relate to Pascal's Triangle?
thank you sir! that is the middle term of the expansion. I'm almost done with the proof. i did the induction and it came up well.. my only problem now is on how to evaluate the first term inside the summation part. is there a property of summation that says that when the upper limit is...- robimaru

Graduate What Is Lockwood's Identity and How Does It Relate to Pascal's Triangle?
i am working on my expository research about integer sequences and their relationship with the pascal's triangle using the Lockwood's identity. but unfortunately i can't provide a complete proof for the said identity. please help me. I've been working on it for months but still i can't do the...- robimaru
