On alternating sums of binomial coefficients and q-binomial coefficients
Abstract
In this paper we shall evaluate two alternating sums of binomial coefficients by a combinatorial argument. Moreover, by combining the same combinatorial idea with partition theoretic techniques, we provide q-analogues involving the q-binomial coefficients.
