In this paper we use the Recursion Theorem to show the existence of various infinite sequences and sets. Our main result is that there is an increasing sequence e_0, e_1, e_2 .. such that W_{e_n}={e_{n+1}} for every n. Similarly, we prove…
A challenging case in web search and question answering are count queries, such as \textit{"number of songs by John Lennon"}. Prior methods merely answer these with a single, and sometimes puzzling number or return a ranked list of text…
We describe the results of the computation of aliquot sequences with small starting values. In particular all sequences with starting values less than a million have been computed until either termination occurred (at 1 or a cycle), or an…
In this note we describe a new method of counting the number of unordered factorizations of a natural number by means of a generating function and a recurrence relation arising from it, which improves an earlier result in this direction.
We use the fact that certain cosets of the stabilizer of points are pairwise conjugate in a symmetric group $S_n$ in order to construct recurrence relations for enumerating certain subsets of $S_n$. Occasionally one can find `closed form'…
In array-based DNA synthesis, multiple strands of DNA are synthesized in parallel to reduce the time cost from the sum of their lengths to the length their shortest common supersequences. To maximize the amount of information that can be…
Based on known methods for computing the number of distinct score sequences for $n$-vertex tournaments, we develop algorithms for computing the number of distinct score sequences for self-complementary tournaments, strong tournaments, and…
We investigate the running sums of some well-known automatic sequences to determine whether they are synchronised.
We study the pseudorandomness of automatic sequences in terms of well-distribution and correlation measure of order 2. We detect non-random behavior which can be derived either from the functional equations satisfied by their generating…
New bounds on the number of similar or directly similar copies of a pattern within a finite subset of the line or the plane are proved. The number of equilateral triangles whose vertices all lie within an $n$-point subset of the plane is…
We study the integer sequence v_n of numbers of lines in hypersurfaces of degree 2n-3 of P^n, n>1. We prove a number of congruence properties of these numbers of several different types. Furthermore, the asymptotics of the v_n are described…
We address the problem of counting the number of strings in a collection where a given pattern appears, which has applications in information retrieval and data mining. Existing solutions are in a theoretical stage. We implement these…
We study numerical semigroups with the property "multiplicity= embedding dimension+1", generated by concatenation of arithmetic sequences.
A source sequence is to be guessed with some fidelity based on a rate-limited description of an observed sequence with which it is correlated. The trade-off between the description rate and the exponential growth rate of the least power…
First we define a new kind of function over $\mathbb{N}$. For each $i\in\mathbb{N}$ we have an associated function, which will be called $S_i$ . Then we define a new kind of sequence, to be made from the functions $S_i$ . Finally, we will…
Characterizations of finite sequences $\beta_{1}<\cdots<\beta_{n}$ representing expected values of order statistics from a random sample of size $n$ are given. As a by-product, a characterization of binomial mixtures, when the mixing random…
In this note we describe a procedure of calculating the number all regular tetrahedra that have coordinates in the set {0,1,...,n}. We develop a few results that may help in finding good estimates for this sequence which is twice A103158 in…
A nCk sequence is a sequence of n-bit numbers with k bits set. Given such a sequence C, the difference sequence D of C is subject to certain regularities that make it possible to generate D in 2|C| time, and, hence, to generate C in 3|C|…
We show that if $A=\{a_1 < a_2 < \ldots < a_k\}$ is a set of real numbers such that the differences of the consecutive elements are distinct, then for and finite $B \subset \mathbb{R}$, $$|A+B|\gg |A|^{1/2}|B|.$$ The bound is tight up to…
The object of observation in present paper is statistical independence of real sequences and its description as independence with re spect to certain class of densities.
