We propose a generalization of Carmichael numbers, where the multiplicative group $\mathbb G_\mathrm{m} = \mathrm{GL}(1)$ is replaced by $\mathrm{GL}(m)$ for $m\geq 2$. We prove basic properties of these families of numbers and give some…
This article is motivated by the following satisfiability question: pick uniformly at random an and/or Boolean expression of length n, built on a set of k_n Boolean variables. What is the probability that this expression is satisfiable?…
The Catalan triangle, as well as a Fuss-Catalan triangle, enter a problem of counting particular tied arc diagrams. This setting allows us to prove some combinatorial properties of these triangles.
Plucking polynomial for plane rooted trees was introduced by J.H. Przytycki in 2014. As it was shown later, this polynomial can be used to find coefficients $C(A)$ of Catalan states $C$ of $m \times n$-lattice crossing $L(m,n)$ without…
We considered the properties of generalized Fibonacci and Lucas numbers class. The analogues of well-known Fibonacci identities for generalized numbers are obtained. We gained a new identity of product convolution of generalized Fibonacci…
In this short note, we first present a simple bijection between binary trees and colored ternary trees and then derive a new identity related to generalized Catalan numbers.
We develop basic cluster theory from an elementary point of view using a variation of binary trees which we call mixed cobinary trees. We show that the number of isomorphism classes of such trees is given by the Catalan number Cn where n is…
For each positive integer $m$, the $m$th order harmonic numbers are given by $$H_n^{(m)}=\sum_{0<k\le n}\frac1{k^m}\ \ (n=0,1,2,\ldots).$$ We discover exact values of some series involving harmonic numbers of order not exceeding four. For…
It is well known that the number of tilting modules over a path algebra of type A_n coincides with the Catalan number C(n). Moreover, the number of support tilting modules of type A_n is the Catalan number C(n+1). We show that the convex…
For each $p>0$ we define by recurrence a triangle $T^p(n,k)$ whose rows sum to the Fuss-Catalan numbers $ \frac{1}{p n+1}\binom{pn+1}{n}$, generalizing the known Catalan triangle corresponding to the case $p=2$. (In fact, $T^p(n,k)$ has an…
The Pascal matrix, which is related to Pascal's triangle, appears in many places in the theory of uniform distribution and in many other areas of mathematics. Examples are the construction of low-discrepancy sequences as well as normal…
We develop the generalized Cartan Calculus for the groups $G=$SL$(2,\mathbb{R})\times\mathbb{R}^+$, SL$(5,\mathbb{R})$ and SO(5,5). They are the underlying algebraic structures of $d=9,7,6$ exceptional field theory, respectively. These…
In this work, we consider a class of substitutions on infinite alphabets and show that they exhibit a growth behaviour which is impossible for substitutions on finite alphabets. While for both settings the leading term of the tile counting…
The Raney numbers $R_{p,r}(k)$ are a two-parameter generalization of the Catalan numbers. In this paper, we obtain a recurrence relation for the Raney numbers which is a generalization of the recurrence relation for the Catalan numbers.…
The paper is an extensive and systematic study of cardinal invariants we call slalom numbers, describing the combinatorics of sequences of sets of natural numbers. Our general approach, based on relational systems, covers many such cardinal…
We present new expressions for the $k$-generalized Fibonacci numbers, say $F_k(n)$. They satisfy the recurrence $F_k(n) = F_k(n-1) +\dots+F_k(n-k)$. Explicit expressions for the roots of the auxiliary (or characteristic) polynomial are…
We present a higher genus generalization of $bc$-Motzkin numbers, which are themselves a generalization of Catalan numbers, and we derive a recursive formula which can be used to calculate them. Further, we show that this leads to a…
We define a weighted analog for the multidimensional Catalan numbers, obtain matrix-based recurrences for some of them, and give conditions under which they are periodic. Building on this framework, we introduce two new sequences of…
We study certain series with Catalan numbers and reciprocal Catalan numbers, respectively, and provide seemingly new closed form evaluations of these series with Fibonacci (Lucas) entries. In addition, we state some combinatorial sums that…
We investigate the divisibility properties of \sigma(C_n), the sum-of-divisors function applied to Catalan numbers, in relation to other number-theoretic functions. We establish conditions under which C_n has prime factors of the form 6k-1,…
