The aim of this paper is to further study some properties and identities on the degenerate Fubini and the degenerate Bell polynomials which are degenerate versions of the Fubini and the Bell polynomials, respectively. Especially, we find…

We study sums with multiplicative functions that take values over a non-homogenous Beatty sequence. We then apply our result in a few special cases to obtain asymptotic formulas such as the number of integers in a Beatty sequence…

Let $|A|$ denote the cardinality of a finite set $A$. For any real number $x$ define $t(x)=x$ if $x\geq1$ and 1 otherwise. For any finite sets $A,B$ let $\delta(A,B)$ $=$ $\log_{2}(t(|B\cap\bar{A}||A|))$. We define {This appears as…

We analyze sumsets A+B = {a+b : a in A, b in B} where A,B are sets of integers, A is infinite, and B has positive upper Banach density. For each k, we show that A+B contains at least the expected density of k-term arithmetic progressions…

In this paper we examine a number of term rewriting system for integer number representations, building further upon the datatype defining systems described in [2]. In particular, we look at automated methods for proving confluence and…

We study the divisibility of the sums of the odd power of consecutive integers, $S(m,k)=1^{mk}+2^{mk}+\cdots+k^{mk}$ and $1^k+2^k+\cdots+n^k$ for odd integers $m$ and $k$, by using the Girard-Waring identity. Faulhaber's approach for the…

For a prime p and base b, the digit function delta(r) = floor(br/p) partitions the residues {1, ..., p-1} into b contiguous bins. The collision count C(g) records how many residues share a bin with their image under multiplication by g. We…

The "Diophantine" property of the zeros of certain polynomials in the Askey scheme, recently discovered by Calogero and his collaborators, is explained, with suitably chosen parameter values, in terms of the summation theorem of…

A new sums-of-tails identity involving two parameters $b$ and $d$ is obtained and is used to derive more results of similar type. One of Ramanujan's sums-of-tails identities from the Lost Notebook is shown to be a special case of our…

Using sequences of finite length with positive integer elements and the inversion statistic on such sequences, a collection of binomial and multinomial identities are extended to their $q$-analog form via combinatorial proofs. Using the…

We introduce the notion of Differential Sequences of ordinary differential equations. This is motivated by related studies based on evolution partial differential equations. We discuss the Riccati Sequence in terms of symmetry analysis,…

Number systems with a rational number $a/b > 1$ as base have gained interest in recent years. In particular, relations to Mahler's 3/2-problem as well as the Josephus problem have been established. In the present paper we show that the…

We extend our previous results on the number of integers which are values of some cyclotomic form of degree larger than a given value (see \cite{FW1}), to more general families of binary forms with integer coefficients. Our main ingredient…

We give three different computations of the total number of runs of length $i$ in binary $n$-strings, and we discuss the connection of this problem with the compositions of $n$.

Although the representation of the real numbers in terms of a base and a set of digits has a long history, new questions arise even in simple situations. This paper concerns binary radix systems, i.e., positional number systems with digits…

The number of unbalanced interior nodes of divide-and-conquer trees on $n$ leaves is known to form a sequence of dilations of the Takagi function on dyadic rationals. We use this fact to derive identities on the Takagi function and on the…

We consider the algebra of invariants of binary forms of degree 10 with complex coefficients, construct a system of parameters with degrees 2, 4, 6, 6, 8, 9, 10, 14 and find the 106 basic invariants.

In the base phi expansion any natural number is written uniquely as a sum of powers of the golden mean with digits 0 and 1, where one requires that the product of two consecutive digits is always 0. In this paper we show that the sum of…

This note gives a few rapidly convergent series representations of the sums of divisors functions. These series have various applications such as exact evaluations of some power series, computing estimates and proving the existence results…
