We show that the irreducible variety of 4 x 4 x 4 complex valued tensors of border rank at most 4 is the zero set of polynomial equations of degree 5 (the Strassen commutative conditions), of degree 6 (the Landsberg-Manivel polynomials),…

The present authors introduced a two-color partition series $S(q)$ and conjectured a Hecke-type formula for the even part of $(q^4;q^4)_\infty S(q)$. Banerjee and Bringmann proved the conjecture by using indefinite theta functions, modular…

We develop a unified method to study spectral determinants for several different manifolds, including spheres and hemispheres, and projective spaces. This is a direct consequence of an approach based on deriving recursion relations for the…

We prove and generalize a conjecture of Johann Cigler on the Hankel determinants of convolution powers of Narayana polynomials. Our method follows a "guess-and-prove" strategy, relying on established techniques involving Hankel continued…

We present a recursive minimal polynomial theorem for finite sequences over a commutative integral domain $D$. This theorem is relative to any element of $D$. The ingredients are: the arithmetic of Laurent polynomials over $D$, a recursive…

The Hankel determinants of a given power series $f$ can be evaluated by using the Jacobi continued fraction expansion of $f$. However the existence of the Jacobi continued fraction needs that all Hankel determinants of $f$ are nonzero. We…

We provide a refinement of Horn's conjecture by considering spectra with repetitions. To do this we adapt P. Belkale's techniques to our context, in the form proposed by N. Berline, M. Vergne and M. Walter.

We show that the Catalan-Schroeder convolution recurrences and their higher order generalizations can be solved using Riordan arrays and the Catalan numbers. We investigate the Hankel transforms of many of the recurrence solutions, and…

Within the framework of the theory of quaternion column-row determinants and using determinantal representations of the Moore-Penrose inverse previously obtained by the author, we get explicit determinantal representation formulas of…

This paper investigates the necessary and sufficient algebraic conditions to a constrained system of Sylvester-type quaternion tensor equations. An explicit formula of the general solution regarding the Moore-Penrose inverses of some block…

A Somos sequence of order $n$ is defined by a quadratic recurrence of width $n + 1$. Some of the remarkable properties of these sequences for small $n$ are tied to certain matrices built out of them being of finite rank. We give an…

In this paper, we consider recurrence sequences $x_n=\xi_1 \alpha_1^n+\xi_2 \alpha_2^n$ ($n=0,1,\ldots$) with companion polynomial $P(X)$. For example, the sequence $x_n=\xi_1(4+\sqrt{2})^n+\xi_2(4-\sqrt{2})^n$ satisfies the recurrence…

Continued fraction expansions and Hankel determinants of automatic sequences are extensively studied during the last two decades. These studies found applications in number theory in evaluating irrationality exponents. The present paper is…

We derive the necessary and sufficient condition, for a given Polynomial Recurrence Sequence to converge to a given target rational K. By converge, we mean that the Nth term of the sequence, is equal to K, as N tends to positive infinity.…

Series expansions for the mathematical constant $\beta(4)$ are rare in the history. With the help of the operator method and a hypergeometric transformation, we prove a surprising conjectural series of Sun for $\beta(4)$. Furthermore, we…

We provide a recursive construction of all the semi-Heyting algebras that can be defined on a chain with $n$ elements. This construction allows us to count them easily. We also compare the formula for the number of semi-Heyting chains thus…

The Hankel determinants $\left(\frac{r}{2(i+j)+r}\binom{2(i+j)+r}{i+j}\right)_{0\leq i,j \leq n-1}$ of the convolution powers of Catalan numbers were considered by Cigler and by Cigler and Krattenthaler. We evaluate these determinants for…

For any integer $m\geq 2$ and $r \in \{1,\dots, m\}$, let $f_n^{m,r}$ denote the number of $n$-Dyck paths whose peak's heights are $im+r$ for some integer $i$. We find the generating function of $f_n^{m,r}$ satisfies a simple algebraic…

Assuming the four exponentials conjecture, Hansel and Safer showed that if a subset $S$ of the Gaussian integers is both $\alpha=-m+i $- and $\beta=-n+i$-recognizable, then it is syndetic, and they conjectured that $S$ must be eventually…

This study establishes consistency conditions and a general solution for a coupled system that consists of five two-sided Sylvester-like tensor equations in ten quaternion variables throughout the Einstein tensor product. Certain specific…
