Through the following, we establish the conditions which allow us to express recursive sequences of real numbers, enumerated through the recurrence relation a_{n+1} = Aa_n + Ba_{n-1}, by means of algebraic equations in two variables of…

This paper describes a class of sequences that are in many ways similar to Fibonacci sequences: given n, sum the previous two terms and divide them by the largest possible power of n. The behavior of such sequences depends on n. We analyze…

Nested (or meta-Fibonacci) recurrences, such as the recurrence used to define Hofstadter's Q-sequence, along with the digit-based recurrences that underlie automatic sequences are of interest from both number-theoretic and combinatorial…

We study higher-dimensional interlacing Fibonacci sequences, generated via both Chebyshev type functions and $m$-dimensional recurrence relations. For each integer $m$, there exist both rational and integer versions of these sequences,…

For $p, q\in \mathbb{N}$, a finite nonempty set $F$ is said to be $(p,q)$-Schreier (or maximal $(p,q)$-Schreier, respectively) if $q\min F\ge p|F|$ (or $q\min F = p|F|$, respectively). For $n\in \mathbb{N}$, let $$\mathcal{S}^{p/q}_{n}\ :=\…

The generalized Fibonacci sequences are sequences $\{f_n\}$ which satisfy the recurrence $f_n(s, t) = sf_{n - 1}(s, t) + tf_{n - 2}(s, t)$ ($s, t \in \mathbb{Z}$) with initial conditions $f_0(s, t) = 0$ and $f_1(s, t) = 1$. In a recent…

Let $(s_2(n))_{n=0}^\infty$ denote Stern's diatomic sequence. For $n\geq 2$, we may view $s_2(n)$ as the number of partitions of $n-1$ into powers of $2$ with each part occurring at most twice. More generally, for integers $b,n\geq 2$, let…

The Fibonacci numbers satisfy the famous recurrence $F_n = F_{n - 1} + F_{n - 2}$. The theory of C-finite sequences ensures that the Fibonacci numbers whose indices are divisible by $m$, namely $F_{mn}$, satisfy a similar recurrence for…

Given a set of integers with no three in arithmetic progression, we construct a Stanley sequence by adding integers greedily so that no arithmetic progression is formed. This paper offers two main contributions to the theory of Stanley…

Stern's diatomic series, denoted by $(a(n))_{n \geq 0}$, is defined by the recurrence relations $a(2n) = a(n)$ and $a(2n + 1) = a(n) + a(n + 1)$ for $n \geq 1$, and initial values $a(0) = 0$ and $a(1) = 1$. A record-setter for a sequence…
