Extending the work of Freese, we further develop the theory of generalized trigonometric functions. In particular, we study to what extent the notion of polar form for the complex numbers may be generalized to arbitrary associative…
In this paper a closed form expression for the number of tilings of an $n\times n$ square border with $1\times 1$ and $2\times1$ cuisenaire rods is proved using a transition matrix approach. This problem is then generalised to $m\times n$…
Frieze patterns have attracted significant attention recently, motivated by their relationship with cluster algebras. A longstanding open problem has been to provide a combinatorial model for frieze patterns over the ring of integers modulo…
Let $R$ be an arbitrary subset of a commutative ring. We introduce a combinatorial model for the set of tame frieze patterns with entries in $R$ based on a notion of irreducibility of frieze patterns. When $R$ is a ring, then a frieze…
Frieze patterns of numbers, introduced in the early 70's by Coxeter, are currently attracting much interest due to connections with the recent theory of cluster algebras. The present paper aims to review the original work of Coxeter and the…
Frieze patterns, as introduced by Coxeter in the 1970's, are closely related to cluster algebras without coefficients. A suitable generalization of frieze patterns, linked to cluster algebras with coefficients, has only briefly appeared in…
In this article, we establish a relation between the values of a frieze of type D-tile and some values of an SL2-tiling t associated with a particular quiver of type A-tilde . This relation allows us to compute, independently of each other,…
We find geometric and arithmetic conditions in order to characterize the irreducibility of the determinant of the generic Vandermonde matrix over the algebraic closure of any field k. We also characterize those determinants whose…
We consider the problem of enumerating periodic $\sigma$-juggling sequences of length $n$ for multiplex juggling, where $\sigma$ is the initial state (or {\em landing schedule}) of the balls. We first show that this problem is equivalent to…
We derive and prove an explicit formula for the sum of the fractional parts of certain geometric series. Although the proof is straightforward, we have been unable to locate any reference to this result. This summation formula allows us to…
We consider logarithmic averages, over friable integers, of non-negative multiplicative functions. Under logarithmic, one-sided or two-sided hypotheses, we obtain sharp estimates that improve upon known results in the literature regarding…
In this article, we use Pl\"ucker relations in the Grassmannian $Gr(3,n)$ to give relations that hold amongst some of the entries of the Heronian frieze of order $n$. Furthermore, we make a connection between certain subfriezes of a…
We develop a general form of the Ritz method for trial functions that do not satisfy the essential boundary conditions. The idea is to treat the latter as variational constraints and remove them using the Lagrange multipliers. In…
The Jacobi system on a full-line lattice is considered when it contains additional weight factors. A factorization formula is derived expressing the scattering from such a generalized Jacobi system in terms of the scattering from its…
A ring with an Auslander dualizing complex is a generalization of an Auslander-Gorenstein ring. We show that many results which hold for Auslander-Gorenstein rings also hold in the more general setting. On the other hand we give criteria…
The properties of the set L of extended jordanian twists are studied. It is shown that the boundaries of L contain twists whose characteristics differ considerably from those of internal points. The extension multipliers of these…
In this article, we establish a link between the values of a frieze of type D and some values of a particular frieze of type A. This link allows us to compute, independently of each other, all the cluster variables in the cluster algebra…
We obtain explicit formulas for the semi-classical twists deforming the coalgebraic structure of U(sl(3)) and U(sl(4)). In rank 2 and 3 the corresponding universal R-matrices quantize the boundary r-matrices of Cremmer-Gervais type defining…
A solution for the Weinstein's Problem in the general framework of generalized Lie algebroids is the target of this paper. We present the mechanical systems called by use, mechanical (?; ?)-systems, Lagrange mechanical (?; ?)-systems or…
This paper surveys some combinatorial aspects of Smith normal form, and more generally, diagonal form. The discussion includes general algebraic properties and interpretations of Smith normal form, critical groups of graphs, and Smith…
