Let ${\mathcal{P}_{n}}$ denote the set of positive integers which are prime to $n$. Let $B_{n}$ be the $n$-th Bernoulli number. For any prime $p \ge 11$ and integer $r\ge 2$, we prove that $$ \sum\limits_{\begin{smallmatrix}…

The Fibonacci sequence $\mathbb{F}$ is the fixed point beginning with $a$ of morphism $\sigma(a,b)=(ab,a)$. Since $\mathbb{F}$ is uniformly recurrent, each factor $\omega$ appears infinite many times in the sequence which is arranged as…

We perform a thorough investigation of the first FPUT recurrence in the $\beta$-FPUT chain for both positive and negative $\beta$. We show numerically that the rescaled FPUT recurrence time $T_{r}=t_{r}/(N+1)^{3}$ depends, for large $N$,…

The set of indices that correspond to the positive entries of a sequence of numbers is called its positivity set. In this paper, we study the density of the positivity set of a given linear recurrence sequence, that is the question of how…

An inversion sequence of length $n$ is an integer sequence $e=e_{1}e_{2}\dots e_{n}$ such that $0\leq e_{i}<i$ for each $i$. Corteel--Martinez--Savage--Weselcouch and Mansour--Shattuck began the study of patterns in inversion sequences,…

We call $(a_1, \dots, a_n)$ an \emph{$r$-partial sequence} if exactly $r$ of its entries are positive integers and the rest are all zero. For ${\bf c} = (c_1, \dots, c_n)$ with $1 \leq c_1 \leq \dots \leq c_n$, let $S_{\bf c}^{(r)}$ be the…

In this paper we consider the fractional parts of a general sequence, for example the sequence $\alpha \sqrt{n}$ or $\alpha n^2$. We give a general method, which allows one to show that long-range correlations (correlations where the…

In this article we study $p$-adic properties of sequences of integers (or $p$-adic integers) that satisfy a linear recurrence with constant coefficients. For such a sequence, we give an explicit approximate twisted interpolation to $\mathbb…

For each positive integer n greater than or equal to 2, a new approach to expressing real numbers as sequences of nonnegative integers is given. The n=2 case is equivalent to the standard continued fraction algorithm. For n=3, it reduces to…

We prove that for a positive integer a the integer sequence P(n) satisfying for all n, -infty<n<infty, the recurrence P(n)=a+P(n-phi(a)), phi(a) the Euler function, generates in increasing order all integers P(n) coprime to a.The finite…

Using a simple Vi\`ete-like formula for $\pi$ based on the nested radicals $a_k = \sqrt{2 + a_{k-1}}$ and $a_1 = \sqrt{2}$, we derive a set of the recurrence relations for the constant $1$. Computational test shows that application of this…

Zeckendorf's Theorem implies that the Fibonacci number $F_n$ is the smallest positive integer that cannot be written as a sum of non-consecutive previous Fibonacci numbers. Catral et al. studied a variation of the Fibonacci sequence, the…

We define a triangular array closely related to Stern's diatomic array and show that for a fixed integer $r\geq 1$, the sum $u_r(n)$ of the $r$th powers of the entries in row $n$ satisfy a linear recurrence with constant coefficients. The…

Let (F_n^{(k)})_{n\geq -(k-2)} be the k-generalized Fibonacci sequence, defined as the linear recurrence sequence whose first k terms are \(0, 0, \ldots, 0, 1\), and whose subsequent terms are determined by the sum of the preceding k terms.…

Golomb's sequence is the unique nondecreasing sequence of positive integers in which each $n$ appears exactly $a(n)$ times. It satisfies the global self-referential rule \[ a\bigl(a(n)+a(n-1)+\cdots+a(1)\bigr)=n, \] grows smoothly like a…

A nonempty set $F$ is Schreier if $\min F\ge |F|$. Bird observed that counting Schreier sets in a certain way produces the Fibonacci sequence. Since then, various connections between variants of Schreier sets and well-known sequences have…
