Prove for all $k \in \mathbb{N}$, that $\sum_{j=0}^{2k+1} {n+j-1\choose j} + \sum_{j=0}^{2k+...
Prove that this sum holds for all positive integers $k$. I'm quite sure this is right but I can't see immediately how to go about proving it. This will help resolve a problem regarding sums of binomia …

Prove that $ \sum_{i=0}^{2k}( {n+R-1\choose R+i} + (-1)^{i+1}{ n+R+i\choose R+i } )\sum_{j=0...
For all $k,R \in \mathbb{N}$ fixed, prove that $ \sum_{i=0}^{2k}( {n+R-1\choose R+i} + (-1)^{i+1}{ n+R+i\choose R+i } )\sum_{j=0}^i {i\choose j}(-1)^j(i+1-j)^{2k}=0 $. I'm quite sure this is true but …

Show that $\sum_{i=0}^{2k} [ {n\choose i+1} + (-1)^{i+1}{n+i+1\choose i+1} ] \sum_{j=0}^i {i...
Let $u(k,j) = 1$ if $j=0$, $0$ if $j > k$, or else it is $j*u(k-1,j-1) +(j+1)*u(k-1,j) $. Prove that $ \sum_{i=0}^{2k} {n \choose i+1} u(2k,i) +\sum_{i=0}^{2k} {-n-1 \choose i+1} u(2k,i)=0. $ This p …

Closed form of $ \sum_{i=1}^{n-k} {n-1-i\choose k-1}i^a + \sum_{i=1}^k {n-1-i\choose n-1-k}$
For all natural numbers $a$, is there a known closed form of $ \sum_{i=1}^{n-k} {n-1-i\choose k-1}i^a + \sum_{i=1}^k {n-1-i\choose n-1-k}$, where $k$ is fixed?
For example, letting $k=1$ gives the bas …
