We consider a real $\lambda$ and the sequence $\left(u_k = \lambda^k\right)_{k \in \mathbb{N}}$. What is the sequence $\left(v_k\right)_{k \in \mathbb{N}}$ defined by formula $$v_k = \sum_{j=0}^{k} \binom{k}{j} u_j \quad \text{(I.1)}$$ Then verify formula $$u_k = \sum_{j=0}^{k} (-1)^{k-j} \binom{k}{j} v_j \quad \text{(I.2)}$$
