We consider the semiconjugate factorization and reduction of order for non-autonomous, nonlinear, higher order difference equations containing linear arguments. These equations have appeared in several mathematical models in biology and…
In this paper we construct an infinite sequence of binary irreducible polynomials starting from any irreducible polynomial $f_0 \in \F_2 [x]$. If $f_0$ is of degree $n = 2^l \cdot m$, where $m$ is odd and $l$ is a non-negative integer,…
We look at a class of transcendental real numbers xi which, together with their square, satisfy some extremal property of simultaneous approximation by rational numbers with the same denominator. We give a sufficient condition for such a…
In the present paper, we give sufficient conditions on the elements of the continued fractions $A$ and $B$ that will assure us that the continued fraction $A^B$ is a transcendental number. With the same condition, we establish a…
Consider the representation of a rational number as a continued fraction, associated with "odd" Euclidean algorithm. In this paper we prove certain properties for the limit distribution function for sequences of rationals with bounded sum…
We compute the limits of a class of continued radicals extending the results of a previous note in which only periodic radicals of the class were considered.
A permutiple is a number which is an integer multiple of some permutation of its digits. A well-known example is 9801 since it is an integer multiple of its reversal, 1089. In this paper, we consider the permutiple problem in an entirely…
We give an explicit upper bound for the algebraic degree and an explicit lower bound for the absolute value of the minimum of a polynomial function on a compact connected component of a basic closed semialgebraic set when this minimum is…
The connection between continued fractions and orthogonality which is familiar for $J$-fractions and $T$-fractions is extended to what we call $R$-fractions of type I and II. These continued fractions are associated with recurrence…
We describe a database of 1779 continued fractions with polynomial coefficients, of which more than 1500 are new, both for interesting constants and for transcendental functions, and provide the database inside the \TeX\ source of the…
We consider a family of integer sequences generated by nonlinear recurrences of the second order, which have the curious property that the terms of the sequence, and integer multiples of the ratios of successive terms (which are also…
The arithmetic degree, the smallest extended degree, and the homological degree are invariants that have been proposed as alternatives of the degree of a module if this module is not Cohen-Macaulay. We compare these degree functions and…
We prove that the formula giving the exact value of the irrationality exponent of regular continued fractions remains valid for semi-regular continued fractions satisfyiong certain conditions.
We reformulate several known results about continued fractions in combinatorial terms. Among them the theorem of Conway and Coxeter and that of Series, both relating continued fractions and triangulations. More general polygon dissections…
We propose and study a generalized continued fraction algorithm that can be executed in an arbitrary imaginary quadratic field, the novelty being a non-restriction to the five Euclidean cases. Many hallmark properties of classical continued…
The degree of a polynomial representing (or approximating) a function f is a lower bound for the number of quantum queries needed to compute f. This observation has been a source of many lower bounds on quantum algorithms. It has been an…
The aim of this paper is to study the convergence and divergence of the Rogers-Ramanujan and the generalized Rogers-Ramanujan continued fractions on the unit circle. We provide an example of an uncountable set of measure zero on which the…
We discuss several enumerative results for irreducible polynomials of a given degree and pairs of relatively prime polynomials of given degrees in several variables over finite fields. Two notions of degree, the {\em total degree} and the…
Motivated by coding applications,two enumeration problems are considered: the number of distinct divisors of a degree-m polynomial over F = GF(q), and the number of ways a polynomial can be written as a product of two polynomials of degree…
We prove results concerning the joint limiting distribution of the renewal time of denominators and consecutive digits of random irrational numbers in the case of continued fractions with even partial quotients, with odd partial quotients,…
