In this paper, we examine a time-dependent family of two-dimensional algebras. We investigate the conditions under which any two algebras from this family, formed at different times, are isomorphic. Our findings reveal that the flow…

We characterize sequences of numbers $(a_n)$ such that $\sum_{n\geq 1} a_n\Phi_n$ converges a.e. for any orthonormal system $(\Phi_n)$ in any $L_2$-space. In our criterion, we use the set $B =\{\sum_{m\geq n} |a_m|^2; n\geq 1\}$ and its…

We examine a recursive sequence in which $s_n$ is a literal description of what the binary expansion of the previous term $s_{n-1}$ is not. By adapting a technique of Conway, we determine limiting behaviour of $\{s_n\}$ and dynamics of a…

We study pattern densities in binary sequences, finding optimal limit sequences with fixed pattern densities.

The construction of the Leavitt path algebra associated to a directed graph $E$ is extended to incorporate a family $C$ consisting of partitions of the sets of edges emanating from the vertices of $E$. The new algebras, $L_K(E,C)$, are…

Let $\beta$ be a non-unit real algebraic integer greater than one and $\{a_{n}\}_{n \geq 0}$ be a sequence satisfying a linear recurrence relation $a_{n+3}=aa_{n+2}+ba_{n+1}+ca_{n}$. Under certain conditions, we prove that the number of…

We study a recursion that generates real sequences depending on a parameter $x$. Given a negative $x$ the growth of the sequence is very difficult to estimate due to canceling terms. We reduce the study of the recursion to a problem about a…

We give a simple recursion labeled by binary sequences which computes rational $q,t$-Catalan power series, both in relatively prime and non relatively prime cases. It is inspired by, but not identical to recursions due to B. Elias, M.…

In this paper, we consider a generalization of Horadam sequence {w_n} which is defined by the recurrence w_n = aw_n-1 + cw_n-2; if n is even, w_n = bw_n-1 + cw_n-2; if n is odd with arbitrary initial conditions w_0, w_1 and nonzero real…

Let $(P_n)_n$ and $(Q_n)_n$ be two sequences of monic polynomials linked by a type structure relation such as $$ Q_{n}(x)+r_nQ_{n-1}(x)=P_{n}(x)+s_nP_{n-1}(x)+t_nP_{n-2}(x)\;, $$ where $(r_n)_n$, $(s_n)_n$ and $(t_n)_n$ are sequences of…

Let $\mathfrak{i}$ denote the minimal cardinality of a maximal independent family and let $\mathfrak{a}_T$ denote the minimal cardinality of a maximal family of pairwise almost disjoint subtrees of $2^{<\omega}$. Using a countable support…

Sequences with {\em perfect linear complexity profile} were defined more than thirty years ago in the study of measures of randomness for binary sequences. More recently {\em apwenian sequences}, first with values $\pm 1$, then with values…

Fluctuations of the order parameters of the Gardner model for any $\alpha<\alpha_c$ are studied. It is proved that they converge in distribution to a family of jointly Gaussian random variables.

We introduce and analyze a three-parameter family of self-referential integer sequences $S(x,y,z)$: starting from $a(1)=x$, each term advances by $y$ when the index $k$ has already appeared as a value and by $z$ otherwise. This simple rule…

We introduce the notion of an M-family of infinite subsets of $\nn$ which is implicitly contained in the work of A. R. D. Mathias. We study the structure of a pair of orthogonal hereditary families $\aaa$ and $\bbb$, where $\aaa$ is…

We study a class of two-generator two-relator groups, denoted $J_n(m,k)$, that arise in the study of relative asphericity as groups satisfying a transitional curvature condition. Particular instances of these groups occur in the literature…

We introduce the notion of infinitely log-monotonic sequences. By establishing a connection between completely monotonic functions and infinitely log-monotonic sequences, we show that the sequences of the Bernoulli numbers, the Catalan…

A sequence $\mathbf{A}$ is said to be realizable if satisfies so called sign and Dold conditions. We will say that a sequence almost satisfies the Dold condition if there exists a constant $c\in\mathbb{N}_+$ such that…

Let $W^c(A_n)$ be the set of fully commutative elements in the $A_n$-type Coxeter group. Using only the settings of their canonical form, we recount $W^c(A_n)$ by the recurrence that is taken as a definition of the Catalan number $C_{n+1}$…

The modular Catalan numbers $C_{k,n}$, introduced by Hein and Huang in 2016 count equivalence classes of parenthesizations of $x_0 * x_1 * \dots *x_n$ where $*$ is a binary $k$-associative operation and $k$ is a positive integer. The…
