Abstract
A practical number is a positive integer n such that every positive integer less than n can be written as a sum of distinct divisors of n. We prove that most of the binomial coefficients are practical numbers. Precisely, letting f(n) denote the number of binomial coefficients (nk), with 0≤k≤n, that are not practical numbers, we show that f(n)File | Dimensione | Formato | |
