An Inventory Sequence $(S_0, S_1, S_2, ...)$ is the iteration of the map $f$ defined roughly by taking an integer to its numericized description (e.g. $f(1381)=211318$ since "$1381$" has two $1$'s, one $3$, and one $8$). Our work analyzes…
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…
Inversion sequences are integer sequences $(\sigma_1, \dots, \sigma_n)$ such that $0 \leqslant \sigma_i < i$ for all $1 \leqslant i \leqslant n$. The study of pattern-avoiding inversion sequences began in two independent articles by…
The sequence $A067549$ of The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences is defined as $(a_k)_{k \geq 1}$ with $a_k$ being the determinant of the $k \times k$ matrix whose diagonal contains the first $k$ prime numbers and all other elements…
The celebrated Thue-Morse sequence, or the Prouhet-Thue-Morse sequence (A010060 in the OEIS), has a number of interesting properties and is a rich source to many (counter)examples. We introduce two different square-free sequences on three…
If you want to fill $n \in \mathbb{N}$ seats in succession with $n$ people and the rule that each person chooses one of the seats with the maximum distance to an occupied seat, then you can ask yourself how many possibilities there are for…
In this paper, we discuss about some results on average of Fibonacci and Lucas sequences that may be found in the OEIS code A111035.
We compute the next few terms of the OEIS sequence A348456 and provide guessed equations for the generating functions of some sequences in its context.
For the OEIS sequence A002627, defined by the inhomogeneous first-order recurrence $a(n) = n\,a(n-1) + 1$ with $a(0) = 0$, R.~J.~Mathar recorded in February 2014 the conjectured second-order homogeneous recurrence \[ a(n) - (n+1)\,a(n-1) +…
We continue the work begun in OEIS sequence A332636 which presents recursive sequences that have triangles that appear embedded in them. This paper i) generalizes the main result presented in A332636, ii) provides a complete set of…
We show that the number of members of S_n avoiding any one of five specific triples of 4-letter patterns is given by sequence A111279 in OEIS, which is known to count weak sorting permutations. By numerical evidence, there are no other…
We present a rigorous and relatively fast method for the computation of the "complexity" of a natural number (sequence A005245), and answer some "old and new" questions related to the question in the title of this note. We also extend the…
Let $\beta$ be any permutation on $n$ symbols and let $c(k, \beta)$ be the number of permutations that $k$-commute with $\beta$. The cycle type of a permutation $\beta$ is a vector $(c_1, \dots, c_n)$ such that $\beta$ has exactly $c_i$…
Given a finite nonempty sequence of integers S, by grouping adjacent terms it is always possible to write it, possibly in many ways, as S = X Y^k, where X and Y are sequences and Y is nonempty. Choose the version which maximizes the value…
This paper gives a brief description of the author's database of integer sequences, now over 35 years old, together with a selection of a few of the most interesting sequences in the table. Many unsolved problems are mentioned.
This is a collection of 1031 formulas that were generated by a computer program in 1992. The set is the database of integer sequences as of 1992 which contained 4568 sequences. These sequences were later published in the Encyclopedia of…
An inversion sequence of length $n$ is an integer sequence $(a_1, \ldots, a_n)$ such that $0 \le a_i < i$ for all $i$. The study of pattern-avoiding inversion sequences was initiated in 2015 by Mansour and Shattuck and in 2016 by Corteel,…
Inversion sequences of length $n$ are integer sequences $e_1,\ldots ,e_n$ with $0\le e_i<i$ for all $i$, which are in bijection with the permutations of length $n$. In this paper, we classify all Wilf equivalence classes of pattern-avoiding…
In this paper we consider a variant of Conway's sequence (OEIS A005150, A006715) defined as follows: the next term in the sequence is obtained by considering contiguous runs of digits, and rewriting them as $ab$ where $b$ is the digit and…
The On-Line Encyclopedia Of Integer Sequences , that wonderful resource that most combinatorialists, and many other mathematicians and scientists, use at least once a day, is a treasure trove of mathematical information, and, one of its…
