We give explicit constructions of sets S with the property that for each integer k, there are at most g solutions to k=s_1+s_2, s_i\in S; such sets are called Sidon sets if g=2 and generalized Sidon sets if g\ge 3. We extend to generalized…

Let X be a subset of an abelian group and a_1,...,a_h,a'_1,...,a'_h a sequence of 2h elements of X such that a_1 + ... + a_h = a'_1 + ... + a'_h. The set X is a Sidon set of order h if, after renumbering, a_i = a'_i for i = 1,..., h. For k…

In this paper we use the framework of automatic sequences to study combinatorial sequences modulo prime powers. Given a sequence whose generating function is the diagonal of a rational power series, we provide a method, based on work of…

In this paper, we study the Euler-Seidel matrices with coefficients and determine the associated Riordan matrix to a given matrix, if it does exist. Computation of the generating fonction of the final sequence is established by the…

Erd\H os and R\'{e}nyi claimed and Vu proved that for all $h \ge 2$ and for all $\epsilon > 0$, there exists $g = g_h(\epsilon)$ and a sequence of integers $A$ such that the number of ordered representations of any number as a sum of $h$…

Finding the maximum size of a Sidon set in $\mathbb{F}_2^t$ is of research interest for more than 40 years. In order to tackle this problem we recall a one-to-one correspondence between sum-free Sidon sets and linear codes with minimum…

A symmetric subset of the reals is one that remains invariant under some reflection x --> c-x. Given 0 < x < 1, there exists a real number D(x) with the following property: if 0 < d < D(x), then every subset of [0,1] with measure x contains…

In this paper; we prove that all sequences can be broken up in cycles. Each cycle follows the same pattern: 1) Upward trajectory. Odd and even numbers alternate until the cycle reaches an upper bound 2) Downward trajectory. Two or more…

A Sidon set $S$ in $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ is a set such that $x+y=z+w$ has no solutions $x,y,z,w \in S$ with $x,y,z,w$ all distinct. In this paper, we prove various results on Sidon sets by using or generalizing known cryptographic results. In…

A Sidon set is a set of integers containing no nontrivial solutions to the equation $a+b=c+d$. We improve on the lower bound on the diameter of a Sidon set with $k$ elements: if $k$ is sufficiently large and ${\cal A}$ is a Sidon set with…

We show that the number of types of sequences of tuples of a fixed length can be calculated from the number of 1-types and the length of the sequences. Specifically, if $\kappa \leq \lambda$, then $$\sup_{|A| = \lambda} |S^\kappa(A)| =…

A sequence is called $C$-finite if it satisfies a linear recurrence with constant coefficients. We study sequences which satisfy a linear recurrence with $C$-finite coefficients. Recently, it was shown that such $C^2$-finite sequences…

In the present paper, we are interested in classifying of Collatz sequences on based to the different behavior of these sequences when their lengths tend to infinity. A Collatz infinite sequence can be defined as an infinite ordered set of…

As Collatz conjecture is still to be proved, a method to arrive at the complete proof is explored here. Conceptually, the process relies on the pre-proven sequence data and the method follows the confirmation of the convergence of the…

We offer an alternative proof of a result of Conlon, Fox, Sudakov and Zhao on solving translation-invariant linear equations in dense Sidon sets. Our proof generalises to equations in more than five variables and yields effective bounds.

A set $A$ of nonnegative integers is called a Sidon set if there is no Sidon 4-tuple, i.e., $(a,b,c,d)$ in $A$ with $a+b=c+d$ and $\{a, b\}\cap \{c, d\}=\emptyset$. Cameron and Erd\H os proposed the problem of determining the number of…
