Basic trigonometric power sums with applications. (English) Zbl 1357.33003

Summary: We present the transformation of several sums of positive integer powers of the sine and cosine into non-trigonometric combinatorial forms. The results are applied to the derivation of generating functions and to the number of the closed walks on a path and in a cycle.
