We study bifurcations of periodic orbits in three parameter general unfoldings of certain types quadratic homoclinic tangencies to saddle fixed points. We apply the rescaling technique to first return (Poincar\'e) maps and show that the…

Sury's 2014 proof of an identity for Fibonacci and Lucas numbers (Identity 236 of Benjamin and Quinn's 2003 book: {\em Proofs that count: The art of combinatorial proof}) has excited a lot of comment. We give an alternate, telescoping,…

Finding, counting and/or listing triangles (three vertices with three edges) in large graphs are natural fundamental problems, which received recently much attention because of their importance in complex network analysis. We provide here a…

This paper is devoted to survey composition algebras and some of their applications. After overviewing the classical algebras of quaternions and octonions, both unital composition algebras (or Hurwitz algebras) and symmetric composition…

Using a direct algebraic approach we derive convolution identities for second order sequences, hereby distinguishing between sequences obeying the same or different recurrence relations. We also state a general convolution for Horadam…

We use elementary methods to establish three key recurrence relations: one for derangement numbers, a second for harmonic numbers, and a third for degenerate harmonic numbers. Our results not only contribute to the understanding of the…

While geometry with transcendental curves, like the Quadratrix of Hippias and the Spiral of Archimedes, played a significant role in our modern developments of geometry and algebra. The investigation has fallen off in the modern era despite…

Pascal's triangle is widely used as a pedagogical tool to explain the "first-order" multiplet patterns that arise in the spectra of $I_N S$ coupled spin-1/2 systems in magnetic resonance. Various other combinatorial structures, which may be…

Triangular decomposition is a classic, widely used and well-developed way to represent algebraic varieties with many applications. In particular, there exist sharp degree bounds for a single triangular set in terms of intrinsic data of the…

In this paper, we study umbral calculus to have alternative ways of obtaining our results. That is, we derive some interesting identities of the higher-order Bernoulli, Euler and Hermite polynomials arising from umbral calculus to have…

We first establish the result that the Narayana polynomials can be represented as the integrals of the Legendre polynomials. Then we represent the Catalan numbers in terms of the Narayana polynomials by three different identities. We give…

In this paper, we introduce 3-dimensional $L-$summing method, which is a rearrangement of the summation $\sum A_{abc}$ with $1\leq a,b,c\leq n$. Applying this method on some special arrays, we obtain some identities on the Riemann zeta…

We derive some Fibonacci and Lucas identities which contain inverse binomial coefficients. Extension of the results to the general Horadam sequence is possible, in some cases.

This paper builds on the research initiated by Boyadzhiev, but introduces generalized harmonic numbers, \[ H_n(\alpha)= \sum_{k=1}^n \frac{\alpha^{k}}{k}, \] which enable the derivation of new identities as well as the reformulation of…

We derive a new Fibonacci identity. This single identity subsumes important known identities such as those of Catalan, Ruggles, Halton and others, as well as standard general identities found in the books by Vajda, Koshy and others. We also…

In the last few years there has been a growing interest towards methods for statistical inference and learning based on computational geometry and, notably, tropical geometry, that is, the study of algebraic varieties over the min-plus…

The classification of isoparametric hypersurfaces in spheres with four or six different principal curvatures is still not complete. In this paper we develop a structural approach that may be helpful for a classification. Instead of working…

We introduce the general polynomial algebras characterizing a class of higher order superintegrable systems that separate in Cartesian coordinates. The construction relies on underlying polynomial Heisenberg algebras and their defining…

A central challenge in topological data analysis is the interpretation of barcodes. The classical algebraic-topological approach to interpreting homology classes is to build maps to spaces whose homology carries semantics we understand and…

We propose a new algorithm for finding an unknown number of geometric models, e.g., homographies. The problem is formalized as finding dominant model instances progressively without forming crisp point-to-model assignments. Dominant…
