One of the most popular and studied recursive series is the Fibonacci sequence. It is challenging to see how Fibonacci numbers can be used to generate other recursive sequences. In our article, we describe some families of integer…
Percolation theory characterizing the robustness of a network has applications ranging from biology, to epidemic spreading, and complex infrastructures. Percolation theory, however, only concern the typical response of a infinite network to…
An important open problem in the synthesis of passive controllers is to obtain a passive network that realizes an arbitrary given impedance function and contains the least possible number of elements. This problem has its origins in…
This paper studies the concept of power dissipation in infinite graphs and fractals associated with passive linear networks consisting of non-dissipative elements. In particular, we analyze the so-called Feynman-Sierpinski ladder, a fractal…
We study electric properties of random resistor networks consisting of resistors of two kinds numerically, focusing on the power loss across each bond. Tuning the ratio of the resistances $r$ and their respective fraction $\alpha$ we find…
We have numerically computed the reflectivity of X-ray incident normally onto Fibonacci multilayers, and compared the results with those obtained in periodic approximant multilayers. The constituent layers are of low and high refractive…
We give identities for the voltage and resistance functions on a metrized graph to show how these functions behave under any edge deletion/contraction and the identification of any two vertices. This leads to explicit versions of Rayleigh's…
Zero-one reaction networks are pivotal to cellular signaling, and establishing the equivalence of such networks represents a foundational computational challenge in the realm of chemical reaction network research. Herein, we propose a…
We define a family of meta-Fibonacci sequences where the order of the of recursion at stage n is a variable r(n), and the n^{th} term of a sequence is the sum of the previous r(n) terms. For the terms of any such sequence, we give upper and…

We examine two types of similarity networks each based on a distinct notion of relevance. For both types of similarity networks we present an efficient inference algorithm that works under the assumption that every event has a nonzero…
We give recurrence relations for the enumeration of symmetric elements within four classes of arc diagrams corresponding to certain involutions and set partitions whose blocks contain no consecutive integers. These arc diagrams are…
We study Fibonacci compositions, which are compositions of natural numbers that only use Fibonacci numbers, in two different contexts. We first prove inequalities comparing the number of Fibonacci compositions to regular compositions where…
We describe a large class of chemical reaction networks, those endowed with a subtle structural property called concordance. We show that the class of concordant networks coincides precisely with the class of networks which, when taken with…
For self-similar fractals, the Minkowski content and fractal curvature have been introduced as a suitable limit of the geometric characteristics of its parallel sets, i.e., of uniformly thin coatings of the fractal. For some self-conformal…
We introduce a reducibility on classes of structures, essentially a uniform enumeration reducibility. This reducibility is inspired by the Friedman-Stanley paper on using Borel reductions to compare classes of countable structures. This…
It is known that electrical networks with resistors are related to the Laplace operator and random walk on weighted graphs. In this paper we consider more general electrical networks with coils, capacitors, and resistors. We give two…
We study the mutual percolation of a system composed of two interdependent random regular networks. We introduce a notion of distance to explore the effects of the proximity of interdependent nodes on the cascade of failures after an…
Considering diffusion in the presence of asymmetric disorder, an exact relationship between the strength of weak disorder and the electric resistance of the corresponding resistor network is revealed, which is valid in arbitrary networks.…
In the setting of finite-dimensional $C^*$-algebras ${\mathcal A}$ we define what we call a Riemannian metric for ${\mathcal A}$, which when ${\mathcal A}$ is commutative is very closely related to a finite resistance network. We explore…
