We introduce the notion of a lowering-raising (or LR) triple of linear transformations on a nonzero finite-dimensional vector space. We show how to normalize an LR triple, and classify up to isomorphism the normalized LR triples. We…
For each positive integer n greater than or equal to 2, a new approach to expressing real numbers as sequences of nonnegative integers is given. The n=2 case is equivalent to the standard continued fraction algorithm. For n=3, it reduces to…
We provide an algorithm for computing the number of integral points lying in certain triangles that do not have integral vertices. We use techniques from Algebraic Geometry such as the Riemann-Roch formula for weighted projective planes and…
We show that sequences of positive integers whose ratios $a_n^2/a_{n+1}$ lie within a specific range are almost uniquely determined by their reciprocal sums. For instance, the Sylvester sequence is uniquely characterized as the only…
We consider arithmetic analogs of the relative Langlands program and applications of new non-reductive geometry. Firstly, we introduce mirabolic special cycles, which produce special cycles on many Hodge type Rapoport-Zink spaces via…
In the space of orientation-preserving circle maps that are not necessarily surjective nor injective, the rotation number does not vary continuously. Each map where one of these discontinuities occurs is itself discontinuous and we can…
A positive linear recurrence sequence (PLRS) is a sequence defined by a homogeneous linear recurrence relation with positive coefficients and a particular set of initial conditions. A sequence of positive integers is \emph{complete} if…
In the classical theory of $L$-series, the exact order (of zero) at a trivial zero is easily computed via the functional equation. In the characteristic $p$ theory, it has long been known that a functional equation of classical $s\mapsto…
We study the application of IBL-infinity-algebras to string topology and explicitly compute the case of spheres. This involves finding a Green kernel and computing integrals associated to trivalent ribbon graphs, which are similar to…
Twisted generalized Reed-Solomon (TGRS) codes are an extension of the generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes by adding specific twists, which attract much attention recently. This paper presents an in-depth and comprehensive investigation of…
We consider the decidability and complexity of the Ultimate Positivity Problem, which asks whether all but finitely many terms of a given rational linear recurrence sequence (LRS) are positive. Using lower bounds in Diophantine…
We investigate a natural subfamily of twisted linearized Reed--Solomon (TLRS) codes in the sum-rank metric, where the twist is applied only to the constant term. We establish a simple necessary and sufficient condition for these codes to be…
A "truncation" of Pascal's triangle is a triangular array of numbers that satisfies the usual Pascal recurrence but with a boundary condition that declares some terminal set of numbers along each row of the array to be zero. Presented here…
The notion of 'bifurcating continued fractions' is introduced. Two coupled sequences of non-negative integers are obtained from an ordered pair of positive real numbers in a manner that generalizes the notion of continued fractions. These…
We study the root distribution of some univariate polynomials satisfying a recurrence of order two with linear and quadratic polynomial coefficients. We show that the set of non-isolated limits of zeros of the polynomials is the closure of…
Let, for r>=2, (m_r(n)),n>=0, be Moser sequence such that every nonnegative integer is the unique sum of the form s_k+rs_l. In this article we give an explicit decomposition formulas of such form and an unexpectedly simple recursion…
In this paper, we study the root distribution of some univariate polynomials satisfying a recurrence of order two with linear polynomial coefficients. We show that the set of non-isolated limits of zeros of the polynomials is either an arc,…
We conjecture that for a strongly minimal theory T in a finite signature satisfying the Zilber Trichotomy, there are only three possibilities for the recursive spectrum of T: all countable models of T are recursively presentable; none of…
Twisted hypercubes are graphs that generalize the structure of the hypercube by relaxing the symmetry constraint while maintaining degree-regularity and connectivity. We study the zero forcing number of twisted hypercubes. Zero forcing is a…
The goal of this paper is to study the number of sliding limit cycles of a regularized piecewise linear $VI_3$ two-fold using the notion of slow divergence integral. We focus on limit cycles produced by canard cycles located in the…
