The sequence of derangements is given by the formula $D_0 = 1, D_n = nD_{n-1} + (-1)^n, n>0$. It is a classical object appearing in combinatorics and number theory. In this paper we consider two classes of sequences: first class is given by…
Furstenberg, Glasscock, Bergelson, Beiglboeck have been studied abundance in arithmatic progression on various large sets like piecewise syndetic, central, thick, etc. but also there are so many sets in which abundance in progression is…
We study the integer sequence v_n of numbers of lines in hypersurfaces of degree 2n-3 of P^n, n>1. We prove a number of congruence properties of these numbers of several different types. Furthermore, the asymptotics of the v_n are described…
We present a certain generalization of a recent result of M. I. Cirnu on linear recurrence relations with coefficient in progressions [2]. We provide some interesting examples related to some well-known integer sequences, such as Fibonacci…
We define a sequence of positive integers recursively, where each term is determined as follows: starting with a given positive integer, if the term is odd, the next is the sum of its positive divisors; if the term is even, the subsequent…
What is Sequence Algebra? This is a question that any teacher or student of mathematics or computer science can engage with. Sequences are in Calculus, Combinatorics, Statistics and Computation. They are foundational, a step up from number…
A permutation on an alphabet $ \Sigma $, is a sequence where every element in $ \Sigma $ occurs precisely once. Given a permutation $ \pi $= ($\pi_{1} $, $ \pi_{2} $, $ \pi_{3} $,....., $ \pi_{n} $) over the alphabet $ \Sigma $ =$\{ $0, 1,…
The length $\mathsf{is}(\pi)$ of a longest increasing subsequence in a permutation $\pi$ has been extensively studied. An increasing subsequence is one that has no descents. We study generalizations of this statistic by finding longest…
The theme of this article is a "reciprocity" between bounded up-down paths and bounded alternating sequences. Roughly speaking, this ``reciprocity" manifests itself by the fact that the extension of the sequence of numbers of paths of…
Generalising the work of Dey, we define the notion of ultra-synchronicity of sequences of real numbers. Let $B_{n,k},C_{n,k},P_{n,k},Q_{n,k}$ be the number of even permutations with $k$ descents, odd permutations with $k$ descents, even…
Various authors, including McNew, Nathanson and O'Bryant, have recently studied the maximal asymptotic density of a geometric progression free sequence of positive integers. In this paper we prove the existence of geometric progression free…
The pair correlation is a localized statistic for sequences in the unit interval. Pseudo-random behavior with respect to this statistic is called Poissonian behavior. The metric theory of pair correlations of sequences of the form $(a_n…
A composition of a nonnegative integer (n) is a sequence of positive integers whose sum is (n). A composition is palindromic if it is unchanged when its terms are read in reverse order. We provide a generating function for the number of…
A generic uniformly distributed sequence $(x_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ in $[0,1)$ possesses Poissonian pair correlations (PPC). Vice versa, it has been proven that a sequence with PPC is uniformly distributed. Grepstad and Larcher gave an…
A (d-parameter) basic nilsequence is a sequence of the form \psi(n)=f(a^{n}x), n \in Z^{d}, where x is a point of a compact nilmanifold X, a is a translation on X, and f is a continuous function on X; a nilsequence is a uniform limit of…
We establish the existence of infinitely many \emph{polynomial} progressions in the primes; more precisely, given any integer-valued polynomials $P_1, >..., P_k \in \Z[\m]$ in one unknown $\m$ with $P_1(0) = ... = P_k(0) = 0$ and any $\eps…
Let $(a_n)_{n \geq 1}$ be a sequence of distinct positive integers. The metric theory of minimal gaps for the sequence $\{\alpha a_n \text{ mod }1, 1\leq n \leq N\}$ as $N \to \infty$ was initiated by Rudnick, who established that the…
For a positive integer \( k \), let \( [k] = \{1, 2, \ldots, k\} \). Let \( h \) be a non-negative integer, and let \( n \) be a multiple of \( h + 1 \). Define \( H \) as the disjoint union of \( n/(h+1) \) cliques (each of size \( h + 1…
Sequence of positive integers $\{x_n\}_{n\geq1}$ is called similar to $\mathbb {N}$ respectively a given property $A$ if for every $n\geq1$ the numbers $x_n$ and $n$ are in the same class of equivalence respectively $A\enskip(x_n\sim n…
An infinite real sequence $\{a_n\}$ is called an invariant sequence of the first (resp., second) kind if $a_n=\sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k} (-1)^k a_k$ (resp., $a_n=\sum_{k=n}^{\infty} {k \choose n} (-1)^k a_k$). We review and investigate…
