We investigate the simplest class of hyperdeterminants defined by Cayley in the case of Hankel hypermatrices (tensors of the form $A_{i_1i_2... i_k}=f(i_1+i_2+...+i_k)$). It is found that many classical properties of Hankel determinants can…
In this paper, we define four transformations on the classical Catalan triangle $\mathcal{C}=(C_{n,k})_{n\geq k\geq 0}$ with $C_{n,k}=\frac{k+1}{n+1}\binom{2n-k}{n}$. The first three ones are based on the determinant and the forth is…
In this paper, we obtain the upper bounds to the third Hankel determinants for starlike functions of order $\alpha$, convex functions of order $\alpha$ and bounded turning functions of order $\alpha$. Furthermore, several relevant results…
In this paper, we provide new applications of Fibonacci and Lucas numbers. In some circumstances, we find algebraic structures on some sets defined with these numbers, we generalize Fibonacci and Lucas numbers by using an arbitrary binary…
It is well known that permutations avoiding any 3-length pattern are enumerated by the Catalan numbers. If the three patterns 123, 132 and 213 are avoided at the same time we obtain a class of permutations enumerated by the Fibonacci…
By using definition of Golden derivative, corresponding Golden exponential function and Fibonomial coefficients, we introduce generating functions for Bernoulli-Fibonacci polynomials and related numbers. Properties of these polynomials and…
A second order polynomial sequence is of \emph{Fibonacci-type} (\emph{Lucas-type}) if its Binet formula has a structure similar to that for Fibonacci (Lucas) numbers. Known examples of these type of sequences are: Fibonacci polynomials,…
A Catalan word is one on the alphabet of positive integers starting with $1$ in which each subsequent letter is at most one more than its predecessor. Let $\mathcal{C}_n$ denote the set of Catalan words of length $n$. In this paper, we give…
Using generating functions, we derive many identities involving balancing and Lucas-balancing polynomials. By relating these polynomials to Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second kind, and Fibonacci and Lucas numbers, we offer some…
Easily computable lower and upper bounds are found for the sum of Catalan numbers. The lower bound is proven to be tighter than the upper bound, which previously was declared to be only an asymptotic. The average of these bounds is proven…
We study orthogonal polynomials and Hankel determinants generated by a symmetric semi-classical Jacobi weight. By using the ladder operator technique, we derive the second-order nonlinear difference equations satisfied by the recurrence…
This paper addresses A Pillai-Catalan-type problem assosiated with Fibonacci numbers. Let $F_{n}$ be the Fibonacci numbers defined by the recurrence relation $F_{1}=1$, $F_{2}=1$ and $F_{n}=F_{n-1}+F_{n-2}$ for all $n\geq 3$. We will find…
We present a new alternating convolution formula for the super Catalan numbers which arises as a generalization of two known binomial identities. We prove a generalization of this formula by using auxiliary sums, recurrence relations, and…
A finitization of the Catalan numbers $ C_n $ can be defined as Euler characteristics of an algebraic structure. We conjecture the existence of a $ q $-deformed version of such structure, and provide evidence for the first two non-trivial…
We provide an involution proof of a Catalan-tangent number identity arising from the study of peak algebra that was found by Aliniaeifard and Li. In the course, we find a new combinatorial identity for the tangent numbers $T_{2n+1}$: $$…
For small $r$ the Hankel determinants $d_r(n)$ of the sequence $\left({2n+r\choose n}\right)_{n\ge 0}$ are easy to guess and show an interesting modular pattern. For arbitrary $r$ and $n$ no closed formulae are known, but for each positive…
In the paper, we give the recurrent equations of the Hankel determinants of the Cantor sequence, and show that the Hankel determinants as a double sequence is 3-automatic. With the help of the Hankel determinants, we prove that the…
A form in a polynomial ring over a field is said to be homaloidal if its polar map is a Cremona map, i.e., if the rational map defined by the partial derivatives of the form has an inverse rational map. The object of this work is the search…
Based on a variant of Sury's polynomial identity we derive new expressions for various finite Fibonacci (Lucas) sums. We extend the results to Fibonacci and Chebyshev polynomials, and also to Horadam sequences. In addition to deriving sum…
We show that the determinant of a Hankel matrix of odd dimension n whose entries are the enumerators of the Jacobi symbols which depend on the row and the column indices vanishes iff n is composite. If the dimension is a prime p, then the…
