If V and W are varieties of algebras such that any V-algebra A has a reduct U(A) in W, there is a forgetful functor U: V->W that acts by A |-> U(A) on objects, and identically on homomorphisms. This functor U always has a left adjoint F:…
In this paper, some properties and applications of MV-algebras are provided. We define a Fibonacci sequence in an MV-algebra and we prove that such a stationary sequence gives us an idempotent element. Taking into account of the…
Inspired by the surprising relationship (due to A. Bird) between Schreier sets and the Fibonacci sequence, we introduce Schreier multisets and connect these multisets with the $s$-step Fibonacci sequences, defined, for each $s\geqslant 2$,…
We study sequences of bounded operators \((T_n)_{n \ge 0}\) on a complex separable Hilbert space \(\mathcal{H}\) that satisfy a linear recurrence relation of the form $$ T_{n+r} = A_0 T_n + A_1 T_{n+1} + \cdots + A_{r-1} T_{n+r-1}…
Let us call a sequence of numbers heapable if they can be sequentially inserted to form a binary tree with the heap property, where each insertion subsequent to the first occurs at a leaf of the tree, i.e. below a previously placed number.…
About four centuries ago, Johann Faulhaber developed formulas for the power sum $1^n + 2^n + \cdots + m^n$ in terms of $m(m+1)/2$. The resulting polynomials are called the Faulhaber polynomials. We first give a short survey of Faulhaber's…
We study systematically the Lax description of the KdV hierarchy in terms of an operator which is the geometrical recursion operator. We formulate the Lax equation for the $n$-th flow, construct the Hamiltonians which lead to commuting…
MacMahon's definition of self-inverse composition is extended to $n$-colour self-inverse composition. This introduces four new sequences which satisfy the same recurrence relation with different initial conditions like the famous Fibonacci…
We provide a recursive construction of all the semi-Heyting algebras that can be defined on a chain with $n$ elements. This construction allows us to count them easily. We also compare the formula for the number of semi-Heyting chains thus…
In this work, we introduce a symmetric algorithm obtained by the recurrence relation a_{n}^{k}=a_{n-1}^{k}+a_{n}^{k-1}. We point out that this algorithm can be apply to hyperharmonic-, ordinary and incomplete Fibonacci- and Lucas numbers.…
We study the recurrence of the product of n functions, each of which satisfies the same recurrence relation.
Machine learning approaches relying on such criteria as adversarial robustness or multi-agent settings have raised the need for solving game-theoretic equilibrium problems. Of particular relevance to these applications are methods targeting…
Dynamical sampling deals with frames of the form $\{T^n\varphi\}_{n=0}^\infty$, where $T \in B(\mathcal{H})$ belongs to certain classes of linear operators and $\varphi\in\mathcal{H}$. The purpose of this paper is to investigate a new…
Motivated by a recent investigation of Costakis et al. on the notion of recurrence in linear dynamics, we study various stronger forms of recurrence for linear operators, in particular that of frequent recurrence. We study, among other…
The solvability of the Riemann-Hilbert boundary value problem on the real line is described in the case when its matrix coefficient admits a Wiener-Hopf type factorization with bounded outer factors but rather general diagonal elements of…
By practicing the philosophy of our beloved late master, Marco Schutzenberger, to whose memory this article is dedicated, we give an insightful bijective proof of the three-term recurrence satisfied by the Hipparchus-Schroeder numbers…
We revisit a well-known divide-and-conquer maximin recurrence $f(n) = \max(\min(n_1,n_2) + f(n_1) + f(n_2))$ where the maximum is taken over all proper bipartitions $n = n_1+n_2$, and we present a new characterization of the pairs…
We establish partial regularity for vector-valued solutions to inhomogeneous elliptic systems in divergence form where the coefficients are possibly discontinuous with respect to $x$. More precisely, we assume a VMO-condition with respect…
In this paper we present a family of identities for recursive sequences arising from a second order recurrence relation, that gives instances of Zeckendorf representation. We prove these results using a special case of an universal property…
By using the variational minimizing method with a special constraint and the direct variational minimizing method without constraint, we study second order Hamiltonian systems with a singular potential $V\in C^2(R^n\backslash O,R)$ and…
