Dispersed Dyck paths are Dyck paths, with possible flat steps on level 0. We revisit and augment questions about them from the Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, in a systematic way that uses generating functions and the kernel method.
We provide a formula for the $n^{th}$ term of the $k$-generalized Fibonacci-like number sequence using the $k$-generalized Fibonacci number or $k$-nacci number, and by utilizing the newly derived formula, we show that the limit of the ratio…
We study Babai numbers and Babai $k$-spectra of paths and cycles. We completely determine the Babai numbers of paths $P_n$ for $n>1$ and $1 \leq k \leq n-1$, and the Babai $k$-spectra for $P_n$ when $1 \leq k \leq n/2$. We also completely…
We give a shorter proof of the recurrence relation for the domination polynomial $\gamma (P_{n},t)$ and for the number $\gamma _{k}(P_{n})$ of dominating $k$-sets of the path with $n$ vertices. For every positive integers $n$ and $k,$…
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…
In this paper, we consider a two-parameter polynomial generalization, denoted by G_{a,b}(n,k;r), of the r-Lah numbers which reduces to these recently introduced numbers when a=b=1. We present several identities for G_{a,b}(n,k;r) that…
Narayana's sequence is a ternary recurrent sequence defined by the recurrence relation $\mathcal{N}_n=\mathcal{N}_{n-1}+\mathcal{N}_{n-3}$ with initial terms $\mathcal{N}_0=0$ and $\mathcal{N}_1=\mathcal{N}_2=\mathcal{N}_3=1$. Let…
Generalized Jacobi polynomials are orthogonal polynomials related to a weight function which is smooth and positive on the whole interval of orthogonality up to a finite number of points, where algebraic singularities occur. The influence…
We give bijective results between several variants of lattice paths of length $2n$ (or $2n-2$) and integer compositions of n, all enumerated by the seemingly innocuous formula $4^{n-1}$. These associations lead us to make new connections…
We study the global dimension of Nakayama algebras. In the case of linear Nakayama algebras, which are in canonical bijection to Dyck paths, we show that the global dimension has the same distribution as the height of Dyck paths. For cyclic…
Let $G$ be a 2-connected graph of order $n$ and let $c$ be the circumference - the order of a longest cycle in $G$. In this paper we present a sharp lower bound for the circumference based on minimum degree $\delta$ and $p$ - the order of a…
The enumeration of k-Dyck paths ending at level j after m up-steps, where the last step is an up-step, is given as a sum, improving on a previous formula given by Deng and Mansour.
The generalized Narayana polynomials $N_{n,m}(x)$ arose from the study of infinite log-concavity of the Boros-Moll polynomials. The real-rootedness of $N_{n,m}(x)$ had been proved by Chen, Yang and Zhang. They also showed that when $n\geq…
We relate the combinatorics of periodic generalized Dyck and Motzkin paths to the cluster coefficients of particles obeying generalized exclusion statistics, and obtain explicit expressions for the counting of paths with a fixed number of…
In this note, by employing a nice property of semicircular distributions, we derive some identities for the Narayana polynomial and its derivatives.
In the present paper we generate binary pseudorandom sequences using generalized polynomials. A generalized polynomial is a function in whose description we not only allow addition and product (as it is the case in usual polynomials) but…
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…
Narayana's cows sequence satisfies the third-order linear recurrence relation $N_n=N_{n-1}+N_{n-3}$ for $n \geq 3$ with initial conditions $N_0=0$ and $N_1=N_2=1$. In this paper, we study $b$-repdigits which are sums of two Narayana…
A recurrence relation of the generating function of the dimer model of Fibonacci type gives a functional relation for formal power series associated to lattice paths such as a Dyck, Motzkin and Schr\"oder path. In this paper, we generalize…
We introduce a simple, rank-based algorithm for inverting the sweep map on (2n,n)-Dyck paths.
