Jacques Touchard (1885 – 1968) was a French mathematician. In 1953, he proved that an odd perfect number must be of the form 12''k'' + 1 or 36''k'' + 9. In combinatorics and probability theory, he introduced the Touchard polynomials. He is also known for his solution to the ménage problem of counting seating arrangements in which men and women alternate and are not seated next to their spouses. ==Touchard's Catalan identity== The following algebraic identity involving the Catalan numbers : Using the generating function : it can be proved by algebraic manipulations of generating series that Touchard's identity is equivalent to the functional equation : satisfied by the Catalan generating series ''C''(''t''). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jacques Touchard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
