Identities for partial Bell polynomials derived from identities for weighted integer compositions (Q284689)

The \((n,k)\)th partial Bell polynomial in variables \(x_1,x_2,\dots,x_{n-k+1}\) is defined as the coefficient of \(t^n/n!\) in the formal power series expansion of \(\frac{1}{k!}\left(\sum_{m\geq 1}\frac{x_m}{m!}t^m\right)^k\). \textit{D. Cvijović} [Appl. Math. Lett. 24, No. 9, 1544--1547 (2011; Zbl 1225.05027)], has proved three identities for the partial Bell polynomials. From the author's introduction: ``The purpose of the present note is to show that these identities are special cases of identities for weighted integer compositions and to outline short proofs for the more general identities, based on sums of discrete random variables. Our main point is to compile (identical or very similar) results developed within heterogeneous communities of research, and to combine these results. Finally, in Section 4, we present three additional identities for the partial Bell polynomials.''
