In combinatorics, Sun's curious identity is the following identity involving binomial coefficients, first established by Zhi-Wei Sun in 2002:

Proofs After Sun's publication of this identity in 2002, five other proofs were obtained by various mathematicians:

Panholzer and Prodinger's proof via generating functions; Merlini and Sprugnoli's proof using Riordan arrays; Ekhad and Mohammed's proof by the WZ method; Chu and Claudio's proof with the help of Jensen's formula; Callan's combinatorial proof involving dominos and colorings.
