An amusing connection between Ford circles, Fibonacci numbers, and golden ratio is shown. Namely, certain tangency points of Ford circles are concyclic and involve Fibonacci numbers. They form four circles that cut the x-axis at points…
In this paper we shall consider some famous means such as arithmetic, harmonic, geometric, root-square means, etc. Some new means recently studied are also presented. Different kinds of refinement of inequalities among these means are…
Given k>1, let a_n be the sequence defined by the recurrence a_n=c_1a_{n-1}+c_2a_{n-2}+...+c_ka_{n-k} for n>=k, with initial values a_0=a_1=...=a_{k-2}=0 and a_{k-1}= 1. We show under a couple of assumptions concerning the constants c_i…
In this note a general a Cauchy-type mean value theorem for the ratio of functional determinants is offered. It generalizes Cauchy's and Taylor's mean value theorems as well as other classical mean value theorems.
Although many series exist for $\pi$ and $\pi^2$, very few are known for $\pi^3$. In this article, we derive, using a trigonometric identity obtained by Euler, two representations of $\pi^3$ involving infinite sums and the golden ratio. The…
Classical technical analysis methods of stock evolution are recalled, i.e. the notion of moving averages and momentum indicators. The moving averages lead to define death and gold crosses, resistance and support lines. Momentum indicators…
The light propagation through a stack of two media with different refractive indices, which are aligned according to different quasiperiodic sequences determined by metallic means, is studied using the transfer matrix method. The focus lies…
The classical AM-GM inequality has been generalized in a number of ways. Generalizations which incorporate variance appear to be the most useful in economics and finance, as well as mathematically natural. Previous work leaves unanswered…
A re-calculation of a known family of formulas of PI is carried out, revisiting the old Archimedes' algorithm. This allows to identify a general family equation and three new simple formulas of Pi in terms of the golden ratio PHI in the…
In this work, we determined the general terms of all almost balancing numbers of first and second type in terms of balancing numbers and conversely we determined the general terms of all balancing numbers in terms of all almost balancing…
In recent three--loop calculations of massive Feynman integrals within Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and, e.g., in recent combinatorial problems the so-called generalized harmonic sums (in short $S$-sums) arise. They are characterized by…
In this paper, generalized metrics mean metrics taking values in general linearly ordered Abelian groups. Using the Hahn fields, we first prove that for every generalized metric space, if the set of the Archimedean equivalence classes of…
Consider a mean-reverting equation, generalized in the sense it is driven by a 1-dimensional centered Gaussian process with H\"older continuous paths on $[0,T]$ ($T > 0$). Taking that equation in rough paths sense only gives local existence…
In the finite dimensional case, mean-type mappings, their invariant means, relations between the uniqueness of invariant means and convergence of orbits of the mapping, are considered. In particular it is shown, that the uniqueness of an…
Expansions in noninteger bases often appear in number theory and probability theory, and they are closely connected to ergodic theory, measure theory and topology. For two-letter alphabets the golden ratio plays a special role: in smaller…
The main goal of this article is to find the exact difference between a convex function and its secant, as a limit of positive quantities. This idea will be expressed as a convex inequality that leads to refinements and reversals of well…
We study a metric-like structure on categories, showing that the concept of the limit of a sequence in a metric space and the concept of the colimit of a sequence in a category have a common generalization. The main concept is a norm on a…
A Somos sequence of order $n$ is defined by a quadratic recurrence of width $n + 1$. Some of the remarkable properties of these sequences for small $n$ are tied to certain matrices built out of them being of finite rank. We give an…
A $K$-Fibonacci sequence is a binary recurrence sequence where $F_0=0$, $F_1=1$, and $F_n=K\cdot F_{n-1}+F_{n-2}$. These sequences are known to be periodic modulo every positive integer greater than $1$. If the length of one shortest period…
In this paper we present some reverses of the Golden-Thompson type inequalities: Let $H$ and $K$ be Hermitian matrices such that $ e^s e^H \preceq_{ols} e^K \preceq_{ols} e^t e^H$ for some scalars $s \leq t$, and $\alpha \in [0 , 1]$. Then…
