Abstract
We define a three parameter family of Bell pseudo-involutions in the Riordan group. The defining sequences have generating functions that are expressible as continued fractions. We indicate that the Hankel transforms of the defining sequences, and of the sequences of the corresponding Riordan arrays, can be associated with Somos sequence. We give examples where these sequences can be associated with elliptic curves, and we exhibit instances where elliptic curves can give rise to associated Riordan pseudo-involutions. In the case of a particular one parameter family of elliptic curves, we show how we can associate to each such curve a unique Bell pseudo-involution.
