  • Under 2009 Revised Mathematics Curriculum and 2015 Revised Mathematics Curriculum, mathematics teachers can help students inductively express real life problems related to sequences but have difficulties in dealing with problems asking the general terms of the sequences defined inductively due to 'Guidelines for Teaching and Learning'. Because most of textbooks mainly deal with the simple calculation for the sums of sequences, students tend to follow them rather than developing their inductive and deductive reasoning through finding patterns in the sequences. In this study, we reconstruct 8 problems to find the sums of sequences in MukSaJipSanBup which is known as one of the oldest mathematics book of Chosun Dynasty, using the terminology and symbols of the current curriculum. Such kind of problems can be given in textbooks and used for teaching and learning. Using problems in mathematical books of Chosun Dynasty with suitable modifications for teaching and learning is a good method which not only help students feel the usefulness of mathematics but also learn the cultural value of our traditional mathematics and have the pride for it.

  • In order to generalize theory of series in Iksan(翼算), we introduce a concept of double sequence of partial sums and elementary double sequence of partial sums, which play a dominant role in the study of double sequences of partial sums. We introduce a concept of finitely generated double sequence of partial sums and find a necessary and sufficient condition for those double sequences. Finally we prove a multiplication theorem for tetrahedral numbers and for 4 dimensional tetrahedral numbers.

  • In this paper, we present an upper bound of the reciprocal sums of generalized subset-sum-distinct sequences with respect to the first terms of the sequences. And we show the suggested upper bound is best possible. This is a kind of generalization of [1] which contains similar result for classical subset-sum-distinct sequences.

  • Although, interesting properties on the partial sums of analytic univalent functions have been investigated extensively by several researchers, yet analogous results on partial sums of harmonic univalent functions have not been so far explored. The main purpose of the present paper is to establish some new and interesting results on the ratio of starlike harmonic univalent function to its sequences of partial sums.

  • In this paper we prove the complete convergence for weighted sums of pairwise negatively quadrant dependent random variables. Some results on identically distributed and negatively associated setting of Liang and Su (1999) are generalized and extended to the pairwise negative quadrant dependence case.

  • For randomly indexed sums of the form (Equation. See Full-text), where {X(sub)ni, i$\geq$1, n$\geq$1} are random variables, {N(sub)n, n$\geq$1} are suitable conditional expectations and {b(sub)n, n$\geq$1} are positive constants, we establish a general weak law of large numbers. Our result improves that of Hong [3].

  • Let N(q) be an arithmetic table of a negative exponent polynomial with q-commuting variables. We study sequential properties of diagonal sums of N(q). We first device a q-coefficient table $\hat{N}$ of N(q), find sequences of diagonal sums over $\hat{N}$, and then retrieve the findings of $\hat{N}$ to N(q). We also explore recurrence rules of s-slope diagonal sums of N(q) with various s and q.
