Abstract


We introduce a generalization of the Stirling numbers of the first kind and the second kind. By arranging these numbers into matrices, we generalize the Stirling matrices of the first kind and the second kind investigated by Cheon and Kim [Stirling matrix via Pascal matrix, Linear Algebra Appl. 329 (2001) 49–59]. Furthermore, we introduce generalizations of the Pascal matrix and the symmetric Pascal matrix with two real arguments, and generalize earlier results related to the Pascal matrices, Stirling matrices and matrices involving Bell numbers.


Keywords
