In this paper, we introduce the prime trees associated with a finite subset $P$ of the set of all prime numbers, and provide conditions under which the tree is of finite type. Moreover, we compute the density of finite-type subsets $P$. As…
We introduce the notion of {\bf a}-walk $S(n)=a_1 X_1+\dots+a_n X_n$, based on a sequence of positive numbers ${\bf a}=(a_1,a_2,\dots)$ and a Rademacher sequence $X_1,X_2,\dots$. We study recurrence/transience (properly defined) of such…
We define recurrence matrices and study a few properties (links with automatic sequences, branch groups etc.) of them.
Recursive algebraic construction of two infinite families of polynomials in $n$ variables is proposed as a uniform method applicable to every semisimple Lie group of rank $n$. Its result recognizes Chebyshev polynomials of the first and…
For a sequence $\gamma=(\gamma_n)_{n\ge 1}$, define \[ L_\gamma(z):=\sum_{n\ge 1}\gamma_n\frac{z^n}{1-z^n} =\sum_{n\ge 1}\Bigl(\sum_{d\mid n}\gamma_d\Bigr)z^n. \] We prove a short rigidity theorem: if $\gamma$ is eventually linearly…
Given a pair of distinct unitary cuspidal automorphic representations for GL(n) over a number field, let S denote the set of finite places at which the automorphic representations are unramified and their associated Hecke eigenvalues…
The \textit{sepr-sequence} of an $n\times n$ real matrix $A$ is $(s_1,\ldots,s_n)$, where $s_k$ is the subset of those signs of $+,-,0$ that appear in the values of the $k\times k$ principal minors of $A$. The $12\times 12$ matrix…
We consider a family of nonlinear recurrences with the Laurent property. Although these recurrences are not generated by mutations in a cluster algebra, they fit within the broader framework of Laurent phenomenon algebras, as introduced…
Based on the notions of conciseness and semiconciseness, we show that these properties are not equivalent by proving that a word originally presented by Ol'shanskii is semiconcise but not concise. We further establish that every…
We study a new type of sequences whose elements are defined in terms of the position, sign and magnitude of another element of the sequence. The name ultra-recursive comes from the fact that these sequences possess terms that are generated…
Several operations can be defined on the set of all linear recurrent sequences, such as the binomial convolution (Hurwitz product) or the multinomial convolution (Newton product). Using elementary techniques, we prove that this set equipped…
We present a finite-order system of recurrence relations for a permanent of circulant matrices containing a band of k any-value diagonals on top of a uniform matrix (for k = 1, 2, and 3) as well as the method for deriving such recurrence…
Construct recursively a long string of words w1. .. wn, such that at each step k, w k+1 is a new word with a fixed probability p $\in$ (0, 1), and repeats some preceding word with complementary probability 1 -- p. More precisely, given a…
We prove that the sets $\{n \in N: n$ satisfies formula (1)$\}$ and $\{n \in N: n$ does not satisfy formula (2)$\}$ are not recursively enumerable. We prove that these sets are co-recursively enumerable. $(1)~\exists p,q \in…
We study the asymptotics and fine-scale behavior of quantitative combinatorial measures of infinite words and related dynamical and algebraic structures. We construct infinite recurrent words $w$ whose complexity functions $p_w(n)$ are…
For any recurrent random walk (S_n)_{n>0} on R, there are increasing sequences (g_n)_{n>0} converging to infinity for which (g_n S_n)_{n>0} has at least one finite accumulation point. For one class of random walks, we give a criterion on…
A program is a finite piece of data that produces a (possibly infinite) sequence of primitive instructions. From scratch we develop a linear notation for sequential, imperative programs, using a familiar class of primitive instructions and…
Let $(A_n)_{n\in \mathbb{Z}}$ be a linear recurrence sequence with values in a real quadratic field. In this paper, we study the question whether the period length of the continued fraction of $A_n$ is bounded as $n$ varies. The case where…
Bernstein blocks of complex representations of p-adic reductive groups have been computed in a large amount of examples, in part thanks to the theory of types a la Bushnell and Kutzko. The output of these purely representation-theoretic…
We study new identities related to the sums of adjacent terms in the Pell sequence, defined by $P_{n} := 2P_{n-1}+P_{n-2}$ for $ n\geq 2$ and $P_{0}=0, P_{1}=1$, and generalize these identities for many similar sequences. We prove that the…
