Ask for a proof of an inequality involving the Bernoulli numbers
Let $B_k$ be the Bernoulli numbers and let
\begin{equation}
T_k=\frac{2^{2k}}{(2k)!}|B_{2k}|, \quad k\ge1.
\end{equation}
Prove the inequality
\begin{equation*}
\frac{\frac{1}{k+2}\sum_{j=0}^{k+1}\...

Bilinear recurrence relation between even Bernoulli numbers
Throughout this question $n$ is a positive integer greater than 1.
Consider the following well-known identity by Euler,
$$\sum_{k=1}^{n-1} \binom{2n}{2k}B_{2k}B_{2n-2k}=-(2n+1)B_{2n}.$$
Rather ...

What is this sequence?
This is again a question that I asked at Stack Exchange, but got no answer so far, so I am trying here.
Let:
$$ a_n=\sum_{k\ge0}(k+1) {n+2\brack k+2}(n+2)^kB_k$$
$B_k$ is the Bernoulli number. ${n\...

Bernoulli sum meets golden number
Let $B_n$ denote the Bernoulli numbers and let $\phi=\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}2$ be the golden ratio.
I encountered the following infinite sum and would like to ask:
Question. Is this true? If so, any ...

Transformation converting power series to Bernoulli polynomial series
I wonder, can anyone describe an expression or formula of a transform that converts
$$\sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{a_k x^k}{k!}$$
into
$$\sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{a_k B_k(x)}{k!}$$
where $B_k(x)$ are ...
