The following article summarizes research where theorems and their respective demonstrations are postulated based on quadratic equations with special properties given by the Pythagorean triplets and the Fibonacci sequence given the second…
New formulas for the construction of Pythagorean triples and generalizations to equations of higher powers. Application of formulas to some problems, in particular Fermat's equation with n=4.
This work discusses an approach to solving geometric construction problems in which the given figure is included in a set ordered by construction steps. The flow of information is carried through the chain, allowing the original problem to…
The triangulations of a regular convex polygon are enumerated according to the number of diagonals parallel to a fixed edge. The enumeration uses the Shapiro convolution identity, as well as an interpretation of this identity in terms of…
Many groups possess highly symmetric generating sets that are naturally endowed with an underlying combinatorial structure. Such generating sets can prove to be extremely useful both theoretically in providing new existence proofs for…
Many finite groups, including all finite non-abelian simple groups, can be symmetrically generated by involutions. In this paper we give an algorithm to symmetrically represent elements of finite groups and to transform symmetrically…
Given a right triangle and two inscribed squares, we show that the reciprocals of the hypotenuse and the sides of the squares satisfy an interesting Pythagorean equality. This gives new ways to obtain rational(integer)right triangles from a…
We discuss families of triples of graphs whose Hosoya indices are primitive Pythagorean triples. Hosoya gave a method to construct such families of caterpillars, i.e., trees whose vertices are within distance 1 of a central path. He also…
We construct a piecewise onto 3-to-1 dynamical system on the positive quadrant of the unit circle, such that for rational points (which correspond to normalized Primitive Pythagorean Triples), the associated ternary expansion is finite, and…
We introduce a $q$-deformation of the Pythagoras equation $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$, which is a polynomial version of it different from the standard one. We construct a polynomial analogue, or ``$q$-analogue'', of every primitive Pythagorean…
We prove a general divisibility theorem that implies, e.g., that, in any group, the number of generating pairs (as well as triples, etc.) is a multiple of the order of the commutator subgroup. Another corollary says that, in any associative…
In 1934 B. Berggren first discovered the surprising result that every Pythagorean triplet is the pre product of the triplet (3, 4, 5) presented as a column by a product of three matrices, that every triplet is obtained in this manner…
We present a construction, which assigns two groupoids, $\Gugamma$ and $\Gmgamma$, to an inverse semigroup $\Gamma$. By definition, $\Gmgamma$ is a subgroupoid (even a reduction) of $\Gugamma$. The construction unifies known constructions…
Linear-time computational techniques have been developed for combining evidence which is available on a number of contending hypotheses. They offer a means of making the computation-intensive calculations involved more efficient in certain…
In this paper, we define a set which has a finite group action and is generated by a finite color set, a set which has a finite group action, and a subset of the set of non negative integers. we state its properties to apply one of solution…
Pythagoras' theorem, the area of a triangle as one half the base times the height, and Heron's formula are amongst the most important and useful results of ancient Greek geometry. Here we look at all three in a new and improved light, using…
We develop a diagrammatic proof system for a fragment of structural semantics inspired by the Greimas semiotic square, using spider diagrams as the underlying formalism. The basic terms are represented as diagrammatic configurations, and…
A new tree model is introduced based on ordered trees, by distinguishing exactly one child of each node that \emph{has} children. The basic enumeration leads to a cubic equation of the generating function. The extraction of its coefficients…
There are four characteristic circles for each triangle on a plane. All for are tangential to the three straight lines containing the triangles' three sides. Three are exterior circles, the fourth is the in-circle. When the triangle is…
We present a bijective algorithm with which an arbitrary permutation decomposes canonically into elementary blocks which we call families, which are sets with a specified number of ascents and descents. We show that families, arranged in an…
