In recent work, M. Just and the second author defined a class of "semi-modular forms" on $\mathbb C$, in analogy with classical modular forms, that are "half modular" in a particular sense; and constructed families of such functions as…

Let $ \{F_n\}_{n\ge 0} $ be the sequence of Fibonacci numbers and let $p$ be a prime. For an integer $c$ we write $m_{F,p}(c)$ for the number of distinct representations of $c$ as $F_k-p^\ell$ with $k\ge 2$ and $\ell\ge 0$. We prove that…

We construct generating trees with one, two, and three labels for some classes of permutations avoiding generalized patterns of length 3 and 4. These trees are built by adding at each level an entry to the right end of the permutation,…

The main objective of this paper is to introduce the modified q-Genocchi polynomials and to define their generating function. In the paper, we show new relations, which are explicit formula, derivative formula, multiplication formula, and…

A Cullen number is a number of the form $m2^m+1$, where $m$ is a positive integer. In 2004, Luca and St\u anic\u a proved, among other things, that the largest Fibonacci number in the Cullen sequence is $F_4=3$. Actually, they searched for…

Let $\mathcal{A}'$ be the set of integers missing any three fixed digits from their decimal expansion. We produce primes in a thin sequence by proving an asymptotic formula for counting primes of the form $p = m^2 + \ell^2$, with $\ell \in…

In this paper we extend the Smarandache function from the set $N*$ of positive integers to the set $Q$ pf rational numbers. Using the inverse formula, this function is also regarded as a generating function. We put in evidence a procedure…

An exposition on Spivakovsky's dual graphs of valuations on function fields of dimension two is first given, leading to a proof of minimal generating sequences for the non-divisorial valuations. It should be noted that the definition of…

Let $a, b\in \mathbb{N}$ be relatively prime. Previous work showed that exactly one of the two equations $ax + by = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ and $ax + by + 1 = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ has a nonnegative, integral solution; furthermore, the solution is unique.…
