The dual of Spivey's Bell number identity from Zeon algebra
Journal of integer sequences, Tome 20 (2017) no. 2
In this paper, we give a new short proof of the dual of Spivey's Bell number identity due to Mező. Our approach follows from basic manipulations involving a fundamental identity representing factorials in the Zeon algebra. This work, along with a previous one due to the author and dos Anjos, shows that Spivey's and Mező's identities have at their root a common underlying algebraic origin.
