In 1713, J. Bernoulli first discovered the method which one can produce those formulae for the sum $\sum\limits_{\iota=1}^{n}\;\iota^k$ for any natural numbers k ([5],[6]). In this paper, we investigate for the historical background and motivation of the sums of powers of consecutive integers due to J. Bernoulli. Finally, we introduce and discuss for the subjects which are studying related to these areas in the recent.

For positive integers n and k, let $S_k(n)$ and $S^{\prime}_k(n)$ be the sums of the elements in the finite sets {$x^k:1{\leq}x{\leq}n$, (x, n) = 1} and {$x^k:1{\leq}x{\leq}n/2$, (x, n) = 1}respectively. The formulae for both $S_k(n)$ and $S^{\prime}_k(n)$ are established. The explicit formulae when k = 1, 2, 3 are also given.

The Tribonacci sequence ${\{T_n}\}_{n{\geq}0}$ resembles the Fibonacci sequence in that it starts with the values 0, 1, 1, and each term afterwards is the sum of the preceding three terms. In this paper, we find all integers c having at least two representations as a difference between a Tribonacci number and a power of 2. This paper continues the previous work [5].

In this paper, a new and easy analytical method to get the Fourier transforms of a popular type of truncated raised cosine function and its powers (n=1, 2, :1‥‥ : positive integers) Is proposed. This new. method is based on the concept of the ( 1+D)_type partial response system, and the procedure is more compact than the conventional method using differentiations. Especially, the results are obtained as a sum of three functions which are easily manageable for each power And they are recursively related to their powers. Therefore, they can be excellently applied to the computer-aided numerical solutions.
