Faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) signaling is a non-orthogonal transmission technique, which has the potential to provide significant spectral efficiency improvement. This paper studies the capacity of FTN signaling for both frequency-flat and for…
Let $[K_n,f,\pi]$ be the (global) SDS map of a sequential dynamical system (SDS) defined over the complete graph $K_n$ using the update order $\pi\in S_n$ in which all vertex functions are equal to the same function $f\colon\mathbb…
Let $ k, m, n $ be positive integers with $ k \geq 2 $. A $ k $-multiset of $ [n]_m $ is a collection of $ k $ integers from the set $ \{1, 2, \ldots, n\} $ in which the integers can appear more than once but at most $ m $ times. A family…
Frequency multiplication involves generating harmonics from an input frequency, a technique particularly useful for integrating spin-wave devices operating at different frequencies. While topological magnetic textures offer distinct…
An $(n, k_1, \dots, k_t)$-cross intersecting system is a set of non-empty pairwise cross-intersecting families $\mathcal{F}_1\subset{[n]\choose k_1}, \mathcal{F}_2\subset{[n]\choose k_2}, \dots, \mathcal{F}_t\subset{[n]\choose k_t}$ with…
A latin square of order $n$ is an $n\times n$ array of $n$ symbols in which each symbol occurs exactly once in each row and column. A transversal of such a square is a set of $n$ entries such that no two entries share the same row, column…
In this work, we consider the modeling of signals that are almost, but not quite, harmonic, i.e., composed of sinusoids whose frequencies are close to being integer multiples of a common frequency. Typically, in applications, such signals…
Frequency combs are light sources with coherent evenly-spaced lines. It has been observed that in certain laser systems, combs can form whose output is frequency-modulated (FM) in time. In this state, they produce an output whose frequency…
We describe the limit (for two topologies) of large uniform random square permutations, i.e., permutations where every point is a record. The starting point for all our results is a sampling procedure for asymptotically uniform square…
We consider the distributions of the lengths of the longest monotone and alternating subsequences in classes of permutations of size $n$ that avoid a specific pattern or set of patterns, with respect to the uniform distribution on each such…
A KMS matrix is one of the form $$J_n(a)=[{array}{ccccc} 0 & a & a^2 &... & a^{n-1} & 0 & a & \ddots & \vdots & & \ddots & \ddots & a^2 & & & \ddots & a 0 & & & & 0{array}]$$ for $n\ge 1$ and $a$ in $\mathbb{C}$. Among other things, we…
A number of observations are made on Hofstadter's integer sequence defined by Q(n)= Q(n-Q(n-1))+Q(n-Q(n-2)), for n > 2, and Q(1)=Q(2)=1. On short scales the sequence looks chaotic. It turns out, however, that the Q(n) can be grouped into a…
Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) is an important index for wireless communications. In CDMA systems, spreading sequences are utilized. This series of papers show the method to derive spreading sequences as the solutions of the non-linear…
A \emph{Latin square} is a matrix of symbols such that each symbol occurs exactly once in each row and column. A Latin square $L$ is \emph{row-Hamiltonian} if the permutation induced by each pair of distinct rows of $L$ is a full cycle…
We generalize the notion of a de Bruijn sequence to a "multi de Bruijn sequence": a cyclic or linear sequence that contains every k-mer over an alphabet of size q exactly m times. For example, over the binary alphabet {0,1}, the cyclic…
On the space of rhythms of arbitrary length with a fixed number of onsets, a self map $F$ is constructed. It is shown that for any rhythm $\mathbf{r}$ of the space there exists a nonnegative integer $k$ such that $F^k(\mathbf{r})$ falls…

Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers, and let $F$ be an alphabet of size $n$. A sequence over $F$ of length $m$ is a \emph{$k$-radius sequence} if any two distinct elements of $F$ occur within distance $k$ of each other somewhere in the…
