This work highlights a peculiar phenomenon of interval exchange. Considering a real number beta less than -1, the negative beta-shift is coded if and only if its absolute value is greater than the golden ratio. We study an increasing…
We study new identities related to the sums of adjacent terms in the Pell sequence, defined by $P_{n} := 2P_{n-1}+P_{n-2}$ for $ n\geq 2$ and $P_{0}=0, P_{1}=1$, and generalize these identities for many similar sequences. We prove that the…
The main goal of this paper is to discuss the recent advancements of operator means for accretive matrices in a more general setting. In particular, we present the general form governing the well established definition of geometric mean,…
We derive interesting arctangent identities involving the golden ratio, Fibonacci numbers and Lucas numbers. Binary BBP-type formulas for the arctangents of certain odd powers of the golden ratio are also derived, for the first time in the…
A finite, simple and undirected graph $G = (V, E)$ with $p$ vertices and $q$ edges is said to be a $k$-geometric mean graph for a positive integer $k$ if there is an injection $\psi :V(G)\to \{k,k+1,\dots,k+q\}$ such that, when each edge…
A subshift of finite type over finitely many symbols can be described as a collection of all infinite walks on a digraph with at most a single edge from a vertex to another. The associated finite set $\F$ of forbidden words is a constraint…
We use generalised Zeckendorf representations of natural numbers to investigate mixing properties of symbolic dynamical systems. The systems we consider consist of bi-infinite sequences associated with so-called random substitutions. We…
Clusters of galaxies allow a direct estimate of the metallicity and metal production yield on the largest scale so far. The ratio of the total iron mass in the ICM to the total optical luminosity of the cluster (the iron…
From geometrical point of view, Eve (2003) studied seven means. These means are Harmonic, Geometric, Arithmetic, Heronian, Contra-harmonic, Root-mean square and Centroidal mean. We have considered for the first time a new measure calling…
Mignosi, Restivo, and Salemi (1998) proved that for all $\epsilon > 0$ there exists an integer $N$ such that all prefixes of the Fibonacci word of length $\geq N$ contain a suffix of exponent $\alpha^2-\epsilon$, where $\alpha =…
We show that the $p$-adic valuation of the sequence of Fibonacci numbers is a $p$-regular sequence for every prime $p$. For $p \neq 2, 5$, we determine that the rank of this sequence is $\alpha(p) + 1$, where $\alpha(m)$ is the restricted…
We consider the greatest common divisor (GCD) of all sums of $k$ consecutive terms of a sequence $(S_n)_{n\geq 0}$ where the terms $S_n$ come from exactly one of following six well-known sequences' terms: Pell $P_n$, associated Pell $Q_n$,…
We develop universal algebra over an enriched category $\mathcal K$ and relate it to finitary enriched monads over $\mathcal K$. Using it, we deduce recent results about ordered universal algebra where inequations are used instead of…
We give enumerations of various families of restricted permutations involving the Fibonacci numbers or k-generalized Fibonacci numbers.
In this paper, algorithms are developed for computing the Stirling transform and the inverse Stirling transform; specifically, we investigate a class of sequences satisfying a two-term recurrence. We derive a general identity which…
We calculate average magnetopolarizability of an isolated metallic sample at frequency $\omega$ comparable to the mean level spacing $\Delta$. The frequency dependence of the magnetopolarizability is described by a universal function of…
The generalization of the geometric mean of positive scalars to positive definite matrices has attracted considerable attention since the seminal work of Ando. The paper generalizes this framework of matrix means by proposing the definition…
Let $\{G_n\}$ be a periodic sequence of integers modulo $m$ and let $\{SG_n\}$ be the partial sum sequence defined by $SG_n:= \sum_{k=0}^nG_k $ (mod $m$). We give a formula for the period of $\{SG_n\}$. We also show that for a generalized…
We present a new model for the evolution of gas phase metallicity gradients in galaxies from first principles. We show that metallicity gradients depend on four ratios that collectively describe the metal equilibration timescale,…
Zeckendorf proved that every positive integer has a unique representation as a sum of non-consecutive Fibonacci numbers. A natural generalization of this theorem is to look at the sequence defined as follows: for $n\ge 2$, let $F_{n,1} =…
