Review text

A generalization of the Kummer identity is given as follows. For all real numbers \(x, y\) and \(z\) with \(xy+yz+zx=0\), \[ x^n+y^n+z^n =\sum_{0\leq k\leq n/3} {n\over n-2k} {n-2k\choose k} (x+y+z)^{n-3k} (xyz)^k. \] Various further combinatorial identities are given as an application.
