Abstract: We offer intriguing new insights into parameterized finite binomial sums, revealing elegant identities such as ∑ k = 0 , k ≠ n m + n ( − 1 ) k n − k m + n k = ( − 1 ) n m + n n ( H m − H n ) , where n , m are non-negative integers and H n is the harmonic number. These formulas beautifully capture the intricate relationship between harmonic numbers and binomial coefficients, providing a fresh and captivating perspective on combinatorial sums.
