A Geometrical Way to Sum Powers by Means of Tetrahedrons and Eulerian Numbers

arXiv:1103.4288

Abstract

We geometrically prove that in a d-dimensional cube with edges of length n, the number of particular d-dimensional tetrahedrons are given by Eulerian numbers. These tetrahedrons tassellate the cube, In this way the sum of the cubes are the sums of the tetrahedrons, whose calculation is trivial.
