The problem of finding a bijective proof for the first identity was first raised in the 1930s. The second, more involved identity takes the first one a step further.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-03-15T04:05:14.000Z", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2015-09-08T21:44:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05A05" ], "keywords": [ "bijective proof", "classic result", "identity extending", "classic identities" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1203.3264B" } } }
