Some Explanations of Dobinski's Formula

The geometric, algebraic, and combinatorial explanations of Dobinski's formula are presented by mixed volumes of compact convex sets, Mobius inversion, difference operator, and species. The employed method may be useful in proving some other combinatorial identities.
