Consider a finite positive integer. If it is even, divide it by 2, and if it is odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1. This will give you a new integer. Following the procedure for the new integer, you will receive another integer. Repeat the…

Bilateral agreement based random undirected graphs were introduced and analyzed by La and Kabkab in 2015. The construction of the graph with $n$ vertices in this model uses a (random) preference order on other $n-1$ vertices and each vertex…

We study some essential arithmetic properties of a new tree-based number representation, {\em hereditarily binary numbers}, defined by applying recursively run-length encoding of bijective base-2 digits. Our representation expresses giant…

A commonly used paradigm for representing graphs is to use a vector that contains normalized frequencies of occurrence of certain motifs or sub-graphs. This vector representation can be used in a variety of applications, such as, for…

Graph-based semantic representations are valuable in natural language processing, where it is often simple and effective to represent linguistic concepts as nodes, and relations as edges between them. Several attempts has been made to find…

The aim of this paper is to show a peculiar behavior of a (hypothetical) Collatz sequence going to infinity. We study the associated Syracusa sequence (the odd elements of the former) and show that the limit set of a conveniently normalized…

An edge-ordered graph is a graph with a total ordering of its edges. A path $P=v_1v_2\ldots v_k$ in an edge-ordered graph is called increasing if $(v_iv_{i+1}) > (v_{i+1}v_{i+2})$ for all $i = 1,\ldots,k-2$; it is called decreasing if…

Kernel and linear regression have been recently explored in the prediction of graph signals as the output, given arbitrary input signals that are agnostic to the graph. In many real-world problems, the graph expands over time as new nodes…

The Collatz iteration is governed by two distinct update rules, depending on the parity of the current iterate: n(i+1)=3n(i)+1 for odd n(i), and n(i+1)=n(i)/2 for even n(i). We show that these rules can be written equivalently as a single…
