Let $(s_2(n))_{n=0}^\infty$ denote Stern's diatomic sequence. For $n\geq 2$, we may view $s_2(n)$ as the number of partitions of $n-1$ into powers of $2$ with each part occurring at most twice. More generally, for integers $b,n\geq 2$, let…

An integer sequence that is defined by initial values and a linear recurrence with constant integer coefficients, can be represented by the difference of two arithmetic terms containing exponentiation. All constants occuring in the term are…

We introduce the category Pstem[n] of n-stems, with a functor P[n] from spaces to Pstem[n]. This can be thought of as the n-th order homotopy groups of a space. We show how to associate to each simplicial n-stem Q an (n+1)-truncated…

The distribution of a given sequence in the set of all sequences with n ones and m = M - n zeros are found by relating the problem to the partitions of a natural number in m natural summands, taking into account the order. The formulas…

We Define moments of partitions of integers, and show that they appear in higher order derivatives of certain combinations of functions.

A Filbert matrix is a matrix whose (i,j) entry is 1/F_(i+j-1), where F_n is the nth Fibonacci number. The inverse of the n by n Filbert matrix resembles the inverse of the n by n Hilbert matrix, and we prove that it shares the property of…

We use the concept of the half of a lower-triangular matrix to define a transformation on integer sequences. We explore the properties of this transformation, including in some cases a study of the Hankel transform of the transformed…

In recent years, many results have been established regarding classifications of varieties whose colength sequences are bounded by a fixed constant. In this work, we explore this theme in the setting of algebras endowed with a graded…

Let D = (D_n)_{n\ge1} be an elliptic divisibility sequence. We study the set S(D) of indices n satisfying n | D_n. In particular, given an index n in S(D), we explain how to construct elements nd in S(D), where d is either a prime divisor…

In this note, we find a sharp bound for the minimal number (or in general, indexing set) of subspaces of a fixed (finite) codimension needed to cover any vector space V over any field. If V is a finite set, this is related to the problem of…

Let $(F_n)_{n\geq 0}$ be the Fibonacci sequence given by $F_{n+2}=F_{n+1}+F_n$, for $n\geq 0$, where $F_0=0$ and $F_1=1$. There are several interesting identities involving this sequence such as $F_n^2+F_{n+1}^2=F_{2n+1}$, for all $n\geq…

We prove the Feichtinger Conjecture for a class of Bessel sequences of unit norm vectors in a Hilbert space. Also, we prove that every Bessel sequence of unit vectors in a Hilbert space can be partitioned into finitely many uniformly…

A sequence is a fractal sequence if it contains itself as a proper subsequence. (The self-containment property resembles that of visual fractals) A doubly fractal sequence of integers is defined by operations called upper trimming and lower…

Starting from billiard partitions which arose recently in the description of periodic trajectories of ellipsoidal billiards in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space, we introduce a new type of separable integer partition classes, called type B.…

We provide a formula for the number of edges of the Hasse diagram of the independent subsets of the h-th power of a path ordered by inclusion. For h=1 such a value is the number of edges of a Fibonacci cube. We show that, in general, the…

The Fibonacci sequence is a sequence of numbers that has been studied for hundreds of years. In this paper, we introduce the new sequence S_{k,n} with initial conditions S_{k,0} = 2b and S_{k,1} = bk + a, which is generated by the…

The \textit{order of appearance} $ z(n) $ of a positive integer $ n $ in the Fibonacci sequence is defined as the smallest positive integer $ j $ such that $ n $ divides the $ j $-th Fibonacci number. A \textit{fixed point} arises when, for…

In this paper, we define the bi-periodic Fibonacci matrix sequence that represent bi-periodic Fibonacci numbers. Then, we investigate generating function, Binet formula and summations of bi-periodic Fibonacci matrix sequence. After that, we…

We establish some bounds on the number of higher-dimensional partitions by volume. In particular, we give bounds via vector partitions and MacMahon's numbers.

Given a sequence $S=(s_1,\dots,s_m) \in [0, 1]^m$, a block $B$ of $S$ is a subsequence $B=(s_i,s_{i+1},\dots,s_j)$. The size $b$ of a block $B$ is the sum of its elements. It is proved in [1] that for each positive integer $n$, there is a…
