New Polynomial Identities and Some Consequences

Using an elementary approach involving the Euler Beta function and the binomial theorem, we derive two polynomial identities; one of which is a generalization of a known polynomial identity. Two well-known combinatorial identities, namely Frisch's identity and Klamkin's identity, appear as immediate consequences of these polynomial identities. We subsequently establish several combinatorial identities, including a generalization of each of Frisch's identity and Klamkin's identity. Finally, we develop a scheme for deriving combinatorial identities associated with polynomial identities of a certain type.
