Over 300 sequences and many unsolved problems and conjectures related to them are presented herein together with theorems corollaries, formulae, examples, mathematical criteria, etc. (about integer sequences, numbers, quotients, residues,…
We introduce the sequence $(i_n)_{n \geq 0}$ defined by $i_n = (-1)^{inv_2(n)}$, where $inv_2(n)$ denotes the number of inversions (i.e., occurrences of 10 as a scattered subsequence) in the binary representation of n. We show that this…
By applying the derivative operator to the known identities from hypergeometric series or WZ pairs, we obtain seven series associated with harmonic numbers. Specifically, six of them are Ramanujan-like formulas for $1/\pi$ and the remaining…
Rational approximations to a square root $\sqrt{k}$ can be produced by iterating the transformation $f(x) = (dx+k)/(x+d)$ starting from $\infty$ for any positive integer $d$. We show that these approximations coincide infinitely often with…
In 2001 W. Gosper introduced a constant Pi_{q} and conjectured without proofs many intriguing identities on this constant. In this paper we establish some modular equations of degrees 3 and 5. From these modular equations we confirm two…
Given an odd prime p, we present three independent ways of relating modulo p certain truncated convolutions of divided Bernoulli numbers to certain full convolutions of divided Bernoulli numbers.
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…
Proper continued fractions are generalized continued fractions with positive integer numerators $a_i$ and integer denominators with $b_i\geq a_i$. In this paper we study the strength of approximation of irrational numbers to their…
A sequence of positive integers is introduced, that is proved to simultaneously solve an infinite family of related puzzles, one of which was recently featured on the popular YouTube sudoku channel \emph{Cracking the Cryptic}.
The first author recently introduced an integer sequence now numbered A355519 in OEIS. This sequence arose from counting bracket tournaments; its study evokes the analysis of the Catalan triangle (sequence A009766 in OEIS) and the related…
We give a new characterization of generalized B\"uchi sequences (sequences whose sequence of squares has constant second difference $(a)$, for some fixed integer $a$) of length 3 over the integers and a strategy for attacking B\"uchi's n…
Let ${\pmb b}=\{b_0,\,b_1,\,\ldots\}$ be the known sequence of numbers such that $b_0\neq0$. In this work, we develop methods to find another sequence ${\pmb a}=\{a_0,\,a_1,\,\ldots\}$ that is related to ${\pmb b}$ as follows:…
Partitions of [n]={1,2,...,n} into sets of lists are counted by sequence number A000262 in the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. They are somewhat less numerous than partitions of [n] into lists of sets, A000670. Here we observe…
We defined numbers of the form $p\cdot a^2$ as SP numbers (Square-Prime numbers) ($a\neq1$, $p$ prime) in 'Distribution of Square-Prime Numbers' (arXiv:2109.10238). These numbers are listed in the OEIS as A228056. Some examples of SP…
Let $\pi_n$ be a uniformly chosen random permutation on $[n]$. Using an analysis of the probability that two overlapping consecutive $k$-permutations are order isomorphic, the authors of a recent paper showed that the expected number of…
We show that for all real biquadratic fields not containing $\sqrt{2}$, $\sqrt{3}$, $\sqrt{5}$, $\sqrt{6}$, $\sqrt{7},$ and $\sqrt{13}$, the Pythagoras number of the ring of algebraic integers is at least $6$. We will also provide an upper…

Given a sequence $s=(s_1,s_2,\ldots)$ of positive integers, the inversion sequences with respect to $s$, or $s$-inversion sequences, were introduced by Savage and Schuster in their study of lecture hall polytopes. A sequence…
We prove an integral formula for continuous paths of rectangles inscribed in a piecewise smooth loop. We then use this integral formula to show that (with a very mild genericity hypothesis) the number of rectangle coincidences, informally…
In 2007 V. Zhuravlev discovered a family of identities concerning integer parts which are satisfied by the number $\frac{\sqrt{5}+1}{2}$. Some of these identities turned out to be characterization properties of the number…
