Continued fractions whose elements are polynomial sequences have been carefully studied mostly in the cases where the degree of the numerator polynomial is less than or equal to two and the degree of the denominator polynomial is less than…
This survey article is the outgrowth of two talks given at the Journ\'ees X-UPS "P\'eriodes et transcendance" at \'Ecole polytechnique. Periods are complex numbers whose real and imaginary parts can be written as integrals of rational…
We study the possible values of the matching number among all trees with a given degree sequence as well as all bipartite graphs with a given bipartite degree sequence. For tree degree sequences, we obtain closed formulas for the possible…
We study the class of rational recursive sequences (ratrec) over the rational numbers. A ratrec sequence is defined via a system of sequences using mutually recursive equations of depth 1, where the next values are computed as rational…
Linear recurrent sequences are those whose elements are defined as linear combinations of preceding elements, and finding recurrence relations is a fundamental problem in computer algebra. In this paper, we focus on sequences whose elements…
A given self-map $f\colon M\to M$ of a compact manifold determines the sequence $(L(f^n))$ of the Lefschetz numbers of its iterations. We consider its dual sequence $(a_n(f))$ given by the M\"obius inversion formula. The set ${\mathcal…
Given an integer $n$, we introduce the integral Lie ring of partitions with bounded maximal part, whose elements are in one-to-one correspondence to integer partitions with parts in $\{1,2,\dots, n-1\}$. Starting from an abelian subring, we…
For each positive integer n greater than or equal to 2, a new approach to expressing real numbers as sequences of nonnegative integers is given. The n=2 case is equivalent to the standard continued fraction algorithm. For n=3, it reduces to…
In this article, we show that the algebraic degree in semidefinite programming can be expressed in terms of the coefficient of a certain monomial in a doubly symmetric polynomial. This characterization of the algebraic degree allows us to…
We introduce a family of extensions of the Hietarinta-Viallet equation to a multi-term recurrence relation via a reduction from the coprimeness-preserving extension to the discrete KdV equation. The recurrence satisfies the irreducibility…
We classify a quasiperiodic flow as either algebraic or transcendental. For an algebraic quasiperiodic flow on the n-torus, we prove that an absolute invariant of the smooth conjugacy class of this flow, known as the multiplier group, is a…
Let $K$ and $L$ be algebraic extensions of the rational numbers inside the field of complex numbers. An $L$-de Rham-Betti class on a smooth projective variety $X$ over $K$ is a class in the Betti cohomology with $L$-coefficients of the…
We determine the length of composition series of projective modules of G-transitive algebras with an Auslander-Reiten component of Euclidean tree class. Furthermore we show that modules with certain length of composition series are…
In 1982, Gessel showed that the Ap\'ery numbers associated to the irrationality of $\zeta(3)$ satisfy Lucas congruences. Our main result is to prove corresponding congruences for all sporadic Ap\'ery-like sequences. In several cases, we are…
We describe new, simple, recursive methods of construction for orientable sequences over an arbitrary finite alphabet, i.e. periodic sequences in which any sub-sequence of n consecutive elements occurs at most once in a period in either…
We give a few remarks on the periodic sequence $a_n=\binom{n}{x}~(mod~m)$ where $x,m,n\in \mathbb{N}$, which is periodic with minimal length of the period being…
In this article we use a theorem of Carlson and Griffiths and compute periods of linear algebraic cycles inside the Fermat variety of even dimension $n$ and degree $d$. As an application, for examples of $n$ and $d$ we prove that the locus…
We present a recursive minimal polynomial theorem for finite sequences over a commutative integral domain $D$. This theorem is relative to any element of $D$. The ingredients are: the arithmetic of Laurent polynomials over $D$, a recursive…
Classes of polynomial differential equations of degree n are considered. An explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients are given which implies that each equation in the class has exactly n complex periodic solutions. In most of…
We give lower bounds in terms of~$n,$ for the number of limit cycles of polynomial vector fields of degree~$n,$ having any prescribed invariant algebraic curve. By applying them when the ovals of this curve are also algebraic limit cycles…
