A conjecture about the degrees of special polynomials
Define the congruence "modulo m" on exponential Taylor series as
$$
\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{a_n}{n!}x^n \equiv \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{b_n}{n!} x^n \mod m \iff \forall n: \frac{a_n-b_n}{m}\in \mathbb{...

Stirling number bounds and polynomials and the Lambert $W$ function
Let $s(n,k)$ be the (signed) Stirling numbers of the first kind. The polynomials
$$L_n(x)=\sum_{j=1}^ns(n,n+1-j)\dfrac{x^j}{j!}$$
enter in the asymptotic expansion of the Lambert $W$ function, see for ...

Generalized identity with Stirling numbers of the second kind and falling factorials
It is known that Striling numbers of the second kind satisfy the relation
$$
\sum\limits_{k=0}^{n}{n \brace k}(x)_k = x^n.
$$
where $(x)_n$ is the falling factorials such that
$$
(x)_n = x(x-1)(x-2)\...
