The starting point of this work is an equality between two quantities $A$ and $B$ found in the literature, which involve the {\em doubling-modulo-an-odd-integer} map, i.e., $x\in {\mathbb N} \mapsto 2x \bmod{(2n+1)}$ for some positive…

Using the lattice paths in $\mathbb{N}\times\mathbb{N}$, we derive a general formula for sequences $\big(T(n,k)\big)$ satisfying the recurrence relation of the form: \begin{equation*} T((n,k)=a_{n,k}T(n-1,k)+b_{n,k}T(n-1,k-1).…

In a series of papers [22-24] by Bufetov and Gorin, Schur generating functions as the Fourier transforms on the unitary group $U(N)$, are introduced to study the asymptotic behaviors of random $N$-particle systems. We introduce and study…

We study the triangular array defined by the Graham--Knuth--Patashnik recurrence $T(n,k) = (\alpha n + \beta k + \gamma)\, T(n-1,k)+(\alpha' n + \beta' k + \gamma') \, T(n-1,k-1)$ with initial condition $T(0,k) = \delta_{k0}$ and parameters…

Let $k\ge 2$ be an integer and let $A$ be a set of nonnegative integers. The representation function $R_{A,k}(n)$ for the set $A$ is the number of representations of a nonnegative integer $n$ as the sum of $k$ terms from $A$. Let $A(n)$…

In this paper we show that, using combinatorial inequalities and Matrix-Averages, we can generate Musielak-Orlicz spaces, i.e., we prove that $1/\pi \sum_{\pi} \max\limits_{1 \leq i \leq n} \abs{x_i y_{i\pi(i)}} \sim \norm{x}_{\Sigma M_i}$,…

We prove a moment majorization principle for matrix-valued functions with domain $\{-1,1\}^{m}$, $m\in\mathbb{N}$. The principle is an inequality between higher-order moments of a non-commutative multilinear polynomial with different random…

The Minkowski question mark function ?(x) arises as a real distribution of rationals in the Farey tree. We examine the generating function of moments of ?(x). It appears that the generating function is a direct dyadic analogue of period…
