The multi-soliton solution of the sine-Gordon equation in the presence of elliptic-function background is derived by the inverse scattering method. The key tool in our formulation is the Lax pair written by $4\times4$ matrix differential…
For the OEIS sequence A025166, defined by $a(n) = -n!\,2^{n}\,L_{n}(1/2)$ where $L_{n}$ is the Laguerre polynomial of degree $n$, R.~J.~Mathar contributed in February 2013 the conjectured order-2 P-recursive recurrence \[ a(n) + (-4n+3)\,…
In this paper we derive bilinear forms and present their solutions in Casoratians for several fourth-order lattice Gel'fand-Dikii (lattice GD-4) equations. These equations were recently formulated from the direct linearization approach and…
We formulate and prove a general recurrence relation that applies to integrals involving orthogonal polynomials and similar functions. A special case are connection coefficients between two sets of orthonormal polynomials, another example…
Based on a recursive factorisation technique we show how integrable difference equations give rise to recurrences which possess the Laurent property. We derive non-autonomous Somos-$k$ sequences, with $k=4,5$, whose coefficients are…
In this paper we give efficient algorithms for computing second-, third-, and fourth-order linear recurrences. We also present an algorithm scheme for computing terms with the indices $N,\ldots,N+n-1$ of an $n$th-order linear recurrence.…
We formulate a well-posedness and approximation theory for a class of generalised saddle point problems. In this way we develop an approach to a class of fourth order elliptic partial differential equations using the idea of splitting into…
Similar sublattices of the root lattice $A_4$ are possible, according to a result of Conway, Rains and Sloane, for each index that is the square of a non-zero integer of the form $m^2 + mn - n^2$. Here, we add a constructive approach, based…
We detail the continued fraction expansion of the square root of monic sextic polynomials. We note in passing that each line of the expansion corresponds to addition of the divisor at infinity, and interpret the data yielded by the general…
We achieve compositions rules for the geometric parameters of the composed rotations, which is in a certain sense analogous to the well known Rodrigues formula. We also obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a composition of two…
This paper presents a reinterpretation of a second-order linear recurrence sequence as a sequence of continuants derived from the convergents to a continued fraction. As a result, we are able to derive the generating function and Binet…
We consider a class of linear ODEs of second order with variable coefficients and construct its Lie algebra of Lie group of equivalence transformations. Further we find invariants and differential invariants of this Lie algebra and by using…
It is shown that every scalar linear quadrilateral lattice equation lies within a family of similar equations, members of which are compatible between one another on a higher dimensional lattice. There turn out to be two such families, a…
In this paper we prescribe a fourth order conformal invariant on the standard $n-$sphere, with $n\geq5$, and study the related fourth order elliptic equation. We first find some existence results in the perturbative case. After some blow up…
Recently, a remarkable correspondence has been unveiled between a certain class of ordinary linear differential equations (ODE) and integrable models. In the first part of the report, we survey the results concerning the 2nd order…
In this paper, we study the symmetric rank of products of linear forms and an irreducible quadratic form. The main result presents a new, non-trivial lower bound for the rank, and the arguments rely on the apolarity lemma. In the special…
In this paper, we present formula solutions of a family of difference equations of higher order. We discuss the periodic nature of the solutions and we investigate the stability character of the equilibrium points. We utilize Lie symmetry…
Svenonius theorem reduces the problem of first-order definability to the problem of relationship between groups of permutations. In the present paper we use this approach to describe the lattice of definable relations for the structure of…
