Denote by p_k the k-th power sum symmetric polynomial n variables. The interpretation of the q-analogue of the binomial coefficient as Hilbert function leads us to discover that n consecutive power sums in n variables form a regular…

The Thue-Morse sequence is generalized to the $TM_m$ sequences and two equivalent definitions are given. This generalization leads to transcendental numbers and has Queff\'elec's theorem on Thue-Morse continued fractions as a special case.…

We present two families of automatic sequences that define algebraic continued fractions in characteristic $2$. The period-doubling sequence belongs to the first first family $\mathcal{P}$; and its sum, the Thue-Morse sequence, belongs to…

The Fibonacci sequence, $F_n = F_{n - 1} + F_{n - 2}$, and its counterpart for $n < 0$, the negaFibonacci sequence, $F_{-n} = (-1)^{n + 1} \cdot F_n$, are among the most studied sequences in mathematics. In this paper we will present a new…

This note is devoted to study the recurrent numerical sequence defined by: $a_0 = 0$, $a_n = \frac{n}{2} a_{n - 1} + (n - 1)!$ ($\forall n \geq 1$). Although, it is immediate that ${(a_n)}_n$ is constituted of rational numbers with…

A new family of sequences is proposed. An example of sequence of this family is more accurately studied. This sequence is composed by the integers $n$ for which the sum of binary digits is equal to the sum of binary digits of $n^2$. Some…

We show that for the classical Fibonacci sequence (Fn) and the Lucas sequence (Ln) the following identity holds for every integer n >= 2: (n-1)Fn equals the sum from k=1 to n-1 of Lk multiplied by F(n-k). Equivalently, this gives a…

Polynomial sequences $p_n(x)$ of binomial type are a principal tool in the umbral calculus of enumerative combinatorics. We express $p_n(x)$ as a \emph{path integral} in the ``phase space'' $\Space{N}{} \times {[-\pi,\pi]}$. The Hamiltonian…

Turyn-type sequences, TT(n), are quadruples of {+,-1}-sequences (A;B;C;D), with lengths n,n,n,n-1 respectively, where the sum of the nonperiodic autocorrelation functions of A,B and twice that of C,D is a delta-function (i.e., vanishes…

Horadam introduced a new generalized sequence of numbers, describing its key features and the special sub-sequences that are obtained depending on the choices of initial parameters. This sequence and its sub-sequences are known as the…

Let $F_k$ be the $k$th Fibonacci number. Let $(G_k)_{k\in\mathbb Z}$ be any sequence obeying the recurrence relation of the Fibonacci numbers. We employ the Gerin-Ces\`aro identity and an identity of Brousseau to evaluate the following…

A sequence of integers $ \{ s_n \}_{n \in \mathbb{N}} $ is called a T-sequence if there exists a Hausdorff group topology on $ \mathbb{Z} $ such that $ \{ s_n \}_{n \in \mathbb{N}} $ converges to zero. For every finite set of primes $ S $…

We consider a self-convolutive recurrence whose solution is the sequence of coefficients in the asymptotic expansion of the logarithmic derivative of the confluent hypergeometic function $U(a,b,z)$. By application of the Hilbert transform…

I propose and investigate the use of continuous functional equations for the study of meta-Fibonacci integer sequences. This exploratory study includes three sequences with quite different behavior: Conway's famous sequence $A(n)=…

We study the recursions $A(n) = A(n-a-A^k(n-b)) + A(A^k(n-b))$ where $a \geq 0$, $b \geq 1$ are integers and the superscript $k$ denotes a $k$-fold composition, and also the recursion $C(n) = C(n-s-C(n-1)) + C(n-s-2-C(n-3))$ where $s \geq…

Linear recursions of degree $k$ are determined by evaluating the sequence of Generalized Fibonacci Polynomials, $\{F_{k,n}(t_1,...,t_k)\}$ (isobaric reflects of the complete symmetric polynomials) at the integer vectors $(t_1,...,t_k)$. If…

The Fibonacci numbers are the prototypical example of a recursive sequence, but grow too quickly to enumerate sets of integer partitions. The same is true for the other classical sequences $a(n)$ defined by Fibonacci-like recursions: the…

In arXiv:1603.03910 [math.NT] we introduced some $C_{n}$ in $Z/2[t]$ defined by a linear recurrence and showed that each $C_{n}$, $n\equiv 0 \bmod{4}$, is a sum of $C_{k}$, $k<n$. Combining this with results from arXiv:1508.07523 [math.NT]…

In this note we show that if $(u_n)_{n\geqslant 1}$ is a simple linearly recurrent sequence of integers whose minimal recurrence of order $k$ involves only positive coefficients that has positive initial terms, then $(Mu_{n^s})_{n\geqslant…

Let a tribonacci sequence be a sequence of integers satisfying $a_k=a_{k-1}+a_{k-2}+a_{k-3}$ for all $k\ge 4$. For any positive integers $k$ and $n$, denote by $f_k(n)$ the number of tribonacci sequences with $a_1, a_2, a_3>0$ and with…
