In 2012, Diem introduced a new figure of merit for cryptographic sequences called expansion complexity. Recently, a series of paper has been published for analysis of expansion complexity and for testing sequences in terms of this new…

For an integer $k\geq 2$, let $(L_{n}^{(k)})_{n}$ be the $k-$generalized Lucas sequence which starts with $0,\ldots,0,2,1$ ($k$ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In this paper, we find all the integers…

We prove a recursive identity involving formal iterated logarithms and formal iterated exponentials. These iterated logarithms and exponentials appear in a natural extension of the logarithmic formal calculus used in the study of…

Simple methods permit to generalize the concepts of iteration and of recursive processes. We shall see briefly on several examples what these methods generate. In additive sequences, we shall encounter not only the golden or the silver…

In 2014, R.H. Hardin contributed a family of sequences about king-moves on an array to the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS). The sequences were recently noticed in an automated search of the OEIS by Kauers and Koutschan, who…

A "tournament sequence" is an increasing sequence of positive integers (t_1,t_2,...) such that t_1=1 and t_{i+1} <= 2 t_i. A "Meeussen sequence" is an increasing sequence of positive integers (m_1,m_2,...) such that m_1=1, every nonnegative…

The paper considers computable Folner sequences in computably enumerable amenable groups. We extend some basic results of M. Cavaleri on existence of such sequences to the case of groups where finite generation is not assumed. We also…

We define impulse response sequence in the set of all linear recurring sequences satisfying a linear recurrence relation of order $r$. The generating function and expression of the impulse response sequence are presented. Some identities of…

We study the generalized Hankel transform of the family of sequences satisfying the recurrence relation $a_{n+1} = \bigl(\alpha + \frac{\beta}{n+\gamma}\bigr) a_n$. We apply the obtained formula to several particular important sequences.…

In this thesis, we survey techniques and results from the study of Complexity Theory and Games. We then apply these techniques to obtain new results for previously unstudied games. Our contributions in the games Hexiom, Cut the Rope, and…

We give a new characterization of generalized B\"uchi sequences (sequences whose sequence of squares has constant second difference $(a)$, for some fixed integer $a$) of length 3 over the integers and a strategy for attacking B\"uchi's n…

A family of nested recurrence relations $a(n+1) = n - a^{(m)}(n) + a^{(m+1)}(n)$, parameterized by an integer $m \ge 1$ with initial condition $a(1)=1$, is studied. We prove that $a(n)=n-h(n)$ is the unique solution satisfying this…

An integral basis of the simplest number fields of degree 3,4 and 6 over $\mathbb{Q}$ are well-known, and widely investigated. We generalize the simplest number fields to any degree, and show that an integral basis of these fields is…

Trees or rooted trees have been generously studied in the literature. A forest is a set of trees or rooted trees. Here we give recurrence relations between the number of some kind of rooted forest with $k$ roots and that with $k+1$ roots on…

In this paper, new families of generalized Fibonacci and Lucas numbers are introduced. In addition, we present the recurrence relations and the generating functions of the new families for $k=2$.

Through the following, we establish the conditions which allow us to express recursive sequences of real numbers, enumerated through the recurrence relation a_{n+1} = Aa_n + Ba_{n-1}, by means of algebraic equations in two variables of…

Partitions of [n]={1,2,...,n} into sets of lists are counted by sequence number A000262 in the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. They are somewhat less numerous than partitions of [n] into lists of sets, A000670. Here we observe…

We study the relationship between two measures of pseudorandomness for families of binary sequences: family complexity and cross-correlation measure introduced by Ahlswede et al.\ in 2003 and recently by Gyarmati et al., respectively. More…

We combinatorially prove a new recurrence between the Tutte polynomials of graphs obtained by contraction of the complete graphs $K_{n}$%. This generalizes, to two variables, a relation previously obtained by the author between the…

We defined numbers of the form $p\cdot a^2$ as SP numbers (Square-Prime numbers) ($a\neq1$, $p$ prime) in 'Distribution of Square-Prime Numbers' (arXiv:2109.10238). These numbers are listed in the OEIS as A228056. Some examples of SP…
