Recovering the digital input of a time-discrete linear system from its (noisy) output is a significant challenge in the fields of data transmission, deconvolution, channel equalization, and inverse modeling. A variety of algorithms have…
Let $L=(L_d)_{d \in \mathbb N}$ be any ordered probability sequence, i.e., satisfying $0 < L_{d+1} \le L_d$ for each $d \in \mathbb N$ and $\sum_{d \in \mathbb N} L_d =1$. We construct sequences $A = (a_i)_{i \in \mathbb N}$ on the…
The set of prime numbers has been analyzed, based on their algebraic and arithmetical structure. Here by obtaining a sort of linear formula for the set of prime numbers, they are redefined and identified; under a systematic procedure it has…
A perfect number is a number whose divisors add up to twice the number itself. The existence of odd perfect numbers is a millennia-old unsolved problem. This note proposes a proof of the nonexistence of odd perfect numbers. More generally,…
For an integer $k\geq 2$, let $(F_{n}^{(k)})_{n}$ be the $k-$Fibonacci sequence which starts with $0,\ldots,0,1$ ($k$ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In this paper, we search for powers of 2 which are…
A bitset is a set that encodes for a binary number. Bitsets are at the basis of a beautiful theory of recombination with n-loci and here we begin from scratch and advance to include the derivation of the fundamental results about the…

Natural numbers satisfying an unusual property are mentioned by the author in [5], in which their infinitude is also proved. In this paper, we start with an arbitrary natural number which is not a multiple of 10 and non-palindromic, form…
In this work, we use a labelled deduction system based on the concept of computational paths (sequence of rewrites) as equalities between two terms of the same type. We also define a term rewriting system that is used to make computations…
On the topic of probabilistic rewriting, there are several works studying both termination and confluence of different systems. While working with a lambda calculus modelling quantum computation, we found a system with probabilistic…
We give a new proof of Lucas' Theorem in elementary number theory.
Permutations can be represented as linear combinations of natural numbers with different powers. In this paper, its coefficient matrix and inverse matrix is derived, and the results show the coefficient matrix is a lower triangular matrix…
Let $(F_n)_{n\geq 0}$ and $(L_n)_{n\geq 0}$ be the Fibonacci and Lucas sequences, respectively. In this paper we determine all Fibonacci numbers which are mixed concatenations of a Fibonacci and a Lucas numbers. By mixed concatenations of $…
In this work initial numbers and repunit numbers have been studied. All numbers have been considered in a decimal notation. The problem of simplicity of initial numbers has been studied. Interesting properties of numbers repunit are proved:…

Iterative methods play an important role in science and engineering applications, with uses ranging from linear system solvers in finite element methods to optimization solvers in model predictive control. Recently, a new computational…
Let $b \geq 3$ be a positive integer. A natural number is said to be a base-$b$ Zuckerman number if it is divisible by the product of its base-$b$ digits. Let $\mathcal{Z}_b(x)$ be the set of base-$b$ Zuckerman numbers that do not exceed…
This paper presents an integer decomposition method. The method first writes an integer as a polynomial with 2 as variable that its coefficients are zero or one. Then, suppose that an integer is decomposed into product of such two…
The paper presents a numerical technique for computing directly the Takens-Bogdanov points in the nonlinear system of differential equations with one constant delay and two parameters. By representing the delay differential equations as…
In this paper we consider integers in base 10 like $abc$, where $a$, $b$, $c$ are digits of the integer, such that $abc^2 - (abc \cdot cba) \; = \; \pm n^2$, where $n$ is a positive integer, as well as equations $abc^2 - (abc \cdot cba) \;…
