One of the most famous algorithmic meta-theorems states that every graph property that can be defined by a sentence in counting monadic second order logic (CMSOL) can be checked in linear time for graphs of bounded treewidth, which is known…
We show that essentially the Fibonacci sequence is the unique binary recurrence which contains infinitely many three-term arithmetic progressions. A criterion for general linear recurrences having infinitely many three-term arithmetic…
We prove a general large sieve statement in the context of random walks on subgraphs of a given graph. This can be seen as a generalization of previously known results where one performs a random walk on a group enjoying a strong spectral…
We study the Fibered Isomorphism Conjecture of Farrell and Jones in L-theory for groups acting on trees. In several cases we prove the conjecture. This includes wreath products of abelian groups and free metabelian groups. We also deduce…
In this paper we give combinatorial proofs of some well known identities and obtain some generalizations. We give a visual proof of a result of Chapman and Costas-Santos regarding the determinant of sum of matrices. Also we find a new…
A natural generalization of base B expansions is Zeckendorf's Theorem: every integer can be uniquely written as a sum of non-consecutive Fibonacci numbers $\{F_n\}$, with $F_{n+1} = F_n + F_{n-1}$ and $F_1=1, F_2=2$. If instead we allow the…
In this paper we prove the identity that generalizes the Andrews-Gordon identity. Also we discuss the relation of our formula to the geometry of affine flag varieties and to the geometry of polyhedra.
We present a different combinatorial interpretations of Lucas and Gibonacci numbers. Using these interpretations we prove several new identities, and simplify the proofs of several known identities. Some open problems are discussed towards…
We study generalized splines from the perspective of the representation theory of the category of graphs with contractions. Our main theorem proves a kind of finite generation, which in turn implies the existence of a ``universal generating…
In this paper, some $k$-Fibonacci and $k$-Lucas with arithmetic indexes sums are derived by using the matrices $R_{a}=\left[ \begin{array}{lr} L_{k,a} & -(-1)^{a} \\ 1 & 0 \end{array}\right]$ and $S_{a}=\frac{1}{2}\left[ \begin{array}{lr}…
We derive closed form expressions for finite and infinite Fibonacci-Lucas sums having products of Fibonacci or Lucas numbers in the denominator of the summand. Our results generalize and extend those obtained by pioneer Brother Alfred…
In this article we generalize a theorem of Benson for generalized quadrangles to strongly regular graphs and directed strongly regular graphs. The main result provides numerical restrictions on the number of fixed vertices and the number of…
The generalized Fibonacci recurrence $g_n=g_{n-k}+g_{n-m}$ was recently used to demonstrate the theoretically optimal nature of limited senescence in morphologically symmetrically dividing bacteria. Here, we study this recurrence from a…
Hyperfiniteness or amenability of measurable equivalence relations and group actions has been studied for almost fifty years. Recently, unexpected applications of hyperfiniteness were found in computer science in the context of testability…
In this paper we extend the notion of Melham sum to the Pell and Pell-Lucas sequences. While the proofs of general statements rely on the binomial theorem, we prove some spacial cases by the known Pell identities. We also give extensions of…
Let (F_n^{(k)})_{n\geq -(k-2)} be the k-generalized Fibonacci sequence, defined as the linear recurrence sequence whose first k terms are \(0, 0, \ldots, 0, 1\), and whose subsequent terms are determined by the sum of the preceding k terms.…
We survey the applications of an elementary identity used by Euler in one of his proofs of the Pentagonal Number Theorem. Using a suitably reformulated version of this identity that we call Euler's Telescoping Lemma, we give alternate…
We provide a new perspective on the divisor theory of graphs, using additive combinatorics. As a test case for this perspective, we compute the gonality of certain families of outerplanar graphs, specifically the strip graphs. The Jacobians…
In previous work on Clebsch-Gordan coefficients, certain remarkable hexagonal arrays of integers are constructed that display behaviors found in Pascal's Triangle. We explain these behaviors further using the binomial transform and discrete…
