Phylogenetic trees play a key role in the reconstruction of evolutionary relationships. Typically, they are derived from aligned sequence data (like DNA, RNA, or proteins) by using optimization criteria like, e.g., maximum parsimony (MP).…

Let $F(x)=\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty\tau(n)x^n$ be the generating function for the number $\tau(n)$ of spanning trees in the circulant graphs $C_{n}(s_1,s_2,\ldots,s_k).$ We show that $F(x)$ is a rational function with integer coefficients…

The binomial convolution of two sequences $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ is the sequence whose $n$th term is $\sum_{k=0}^{n} \binom{n}{k} a_k b_{n-k}$. If $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ have rational generating functions then so does their binomial…

One of the many remarkable properties of the Ap\'ery numbers $A (n)$, introduced in Ap\'ery's proof of the irrationality of $\zeta (3)$, is that they satisfy the two-term supercongruences \begin{equation*} A (p^r m) \equiv A (p^{r - 1} m)…

We consider a model for topological recursion based on the Hopf Algebra of planar binary trees of Loday and Ronco. We show that extending this Hopf Algebra by identifying pairs of nearest neighbor leaves and producing in this way graphs…

Given a positive rational $q$, we consider Dyck paths having height at most two with some constraints on the number of consecutive peaks and consecutive valleys, depending on $q$. We introduce a general class of Dyck paths, called rational…

We formalize the quantum arithmetic, i.e. a relationship between number theory and operator algebras. Namely, it is proved that rational projective varieties are dual to the $C^*$-algebras with real multiplication. Our construction fits all…

We develop a canonical pairing between trees and graphs, which passes to their quotients by Jacobi identities. This pairing is an effective and simple tool for understanding the Lie and Poisson operads, providing canonical duals. In the…

The arithmetic of the natural numbers can be extended to arithmetic operations on planar binary trees. This gives rise to a non-commutative arithmetic theory. In this exposition, we describe this arithmetree, first defined by Loday, and…
