Primes Expressible as $x^2+ny^2$
I'll put this here for (my) future reference:

int main{int n,x,y;for(n=1;n<11;n++)for(x=1;x<33;x++)for(y=1;y<33;y++)if(x*x+y*y*n==1009)printf("1009=%d^2+%dx%d^2\n",x,n,y);}
 * 1) include

Sum of Product of $k$ Consecutive Integers
In particular, when $m = 1$, the theorem takes a nice form:

For $l = 0$, $\displaystyle \sum_{i = 1} ^ n i = \dfrac {n (n + 1)} 2$ which is Closed Form for Triangular Numbers

For $l = 1$, $\displaystyle \sum_{i = 1} ^ n i (i + 1) = \dfrac {n (n + 1) (n + 2)} 3$ which is Sum of Sequence of Products of Consecutive Integers

Credit: The relationship between binomial coefficients and products of consecutive integers was noticed by my friend Oscar, whose observation allowed for a intuitive view to the validity of the equation.

My original proof for the cases $m = 0$ was an induction on $n$ with a fixed $l$.

For $n = 1$, $RHS = \dfrac {1 (2) \cdots (1 + l + 1)} {l + 2} = (l + 1) ! = LHS$

For the induction step, assume $\displaystyle \sum_{i = 1} ^ m i (i + 1) \cdots (i + l) = \dfrac {m (m + 1) \cdots (m + l + 1)} {l + 2}$.

Then

The general theorem results from subtraction.

I wish to generalize this result to arithmetic progressions at some point.

Potential Corollary and its Generalisation
We have:

Can't find related result - a visual proof was given by RBN in PWW.

Then do we have:

or

For tetrahedral numbers and pentatope numbers, etc.?

This is possibly equivalent to:

Where $\map S {l, m} = \displaystyle \sum_{i \mathop = 1}^m i (i + 1) \cdots (i + l)$.

For which, if true, its proof will be a wonderful cacophony of sums and algebra.
