A probabilistic generalization of the Stirling numbers of the second kind
Resumen: Associated to each random variable Y satisfying appropriate moment conditions, we introduce a different generalization of the Stirling numbers of the second kind. Some characterizations and specific examples of such generalized numbers are provided. As far as their applications are concerned, attention is focused in extending in various ways the classical formula for sums of powers on arithmetic progressions. Illustrations involving rising factorials, Bell polynomials, polylogarithms, and a certain class of Appell polynomials, in connection with appropriate random variables Y in each case, are discussed in detail.
