In this paper we provide an algebraic approach to the generalized Stirling numbers (GSN). By defining a group that contains the GSN, we obtain a unified interpretation for important combinatorial functions like the binomials, Stirling numbers, Gaussian polynomials. In particular we show that many GS

โฆ Synopsis
The theory of modular binomial lattices enables the simultaneous combinatorial analysis of finite sets, vector spaces, and chains. Within this theory three generalizations of Stifling numbers of the second kind, and of Lah numbers, are developed.

It is shown that various well-known generalizations of Stirling numbers of the first and second kinds can be unified by starting with transformations between generalized factorials involving three arbitrary parameters.

In this paper we prove some identities involving Bernoulli and Stirling numbers, relation for two or three consecutive Bernoulli numbers, and various representations of Bernoulli numbers.
We use properties of p-adic integrals and measures to obtain congruences for higher-order Bernoulli and Euler numbers and polynomials, as well as for certain generalizations and for Stirling numbers of the second kind. These congruences are analogues and generalizations of the usual Kummer congruenc
