Given an increasing sequence of integers a(n), it is known (due to Weyl) that for almost all reals t, the fractional parts of the dilated sequence t*a(n) are uniformly distributed in the unit interval. Some effort has been made recently to…

We study the properties of the sequence of words $(B_i)$, where $B_1 = 101$ and $B_{i+1} = B_i C_i$ for $i \geq 1$, where $C_i$ is $B_i$ with the first $i$ symbols removed, and the infinite binary sequence ${\bf b} = 10101101011011101…

We give a combinatorial proof of a formula giving the partial sums of the $k$-bonacci sequence as alternating sums of powers of two multiplied by binomial coefficients. As a corollary we obtain a formula for the $k$-bonacci numbers.

In this paper we define a new type of continued fraction expansion for a real number $x \in I_m:=[0,m-1], m\in N_+, m\geq 2$: \[x = \frac{m^{-b_1(x)}}{\displaystyle 1+\frac{m^{-b_2(x)}}{1+\ddots}}:=[b_1(x), b_2(x), ...]_m. \] Then, we…

In recent work, M. Schneider and the first author studied a curious class of integer partitions called "sequentially congruent" partitions: the $m$th part is congruent to the $(m+1)$th part modulo $m$, with the smallest part congruent to…

We continue our investigation of the distribution of the fractional parts of $a \gamma$, where $a$ is a fixed non-zero real number and $\gamma$ runs over the imaginary parts of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. We…

We study the problem of generating interesting integer sequences with a combinatorial interpretation. For this we introduce a two-step approach. In the first step, we generate first-order logic sentences which define some combinatorial…

Let $w$ be a finite word over the alphabet $\{0,1\}$. For any natural number $n$, let $s_w(n)$ denote the number of occurrence of $w$ in the binary expansion of $n$ as a scattered subsequence. We study the behavior of the partial sum…

Denote by p_k the k-th power sum symmetric polynomial n variables. The interpretation of the q-analogue of the binomial coefficient as Hilbert function leads us to discover that n consecutive power sums in n variables form a regular…

We study a certain class of arithmetic functions that appeared in Klurman's classification of $\pm 1$ multiplicative functions with bounded partial sums, c.f., Comp. Math. 153 (8), 2017, pp. 1622-1657. These functions are periodic and…

Sequence of positive integers $\{x_n\}_{n\geq1}$ is called similar to $\mathbb {N}$ respectively a given property $A$ if for every $n\geq1$ the numbers $x_n$ and $n$ are in the same class of equivalence respectively $A\enskip(x_n\sim n…

Number sequences defined by a linear recursion relation are studied by means of generating functions. Indices of the terms in the recursion relation have arbitrary differenses. In addition to formulas for the nth term an algorithm is…

Given a sequence of frequencies $\{\lambda_n\}_{n\geq1}$, a corresponding generalized Dirichlet series is of the form $f(s)=\sum_{n\geq 1}a_ne^{-\lambda_ns}$. We are interested in multiplicatively generated systems, where each number…

We study the properties of a sequence cn defined by the recursive relation \[\frac{c_0}{n + 1}+\frac{c_1}{n + 2}+\ldots+\frac{c_n}{2n + 1}=0\] for $n>1$ and $c_0=1$. This sequence also has an alternative definition in terms of certain norm…

We present a certain generalization of a recent result of M. I. Cirnu on linear recurrence relations with coefficient in progressions [2]. We provide some interesting examples related to some well-known integer sequences, such as Fibonacci…

We extend previous work on anti-recurrence sequences of Kimberling and Moses, Zaslavsky, and Bosma et al. Kimberling and Moses have formulated several questions on these sequences, which can be combined into the meta-conjecture that…

In this work we show that based on a conjecture for the pair correlation of integers representable as sums of two squares, which was first suggested by Connors and Keating and reformulated here, the second moment of the distribution of the…

We continue the study of the $(a,b,m)$-copartition function $\mathrm{cp}_{a,b,m}(n)$, which arose as a combinatorial generalization of Andrews' partitions with even parts below odd parts. The generating function of $\mathrm{cp}_{a,b,m}(n)$…

A new explicit closed-form formula for the multivariate $(n, k)$th partial Bell polynomial $B_{n,k} (x_1, x_2, ..., x_{n - k + 1})$ is deduced. The formula involves multiple summations and makes it possible, for the first time, to easily…

For every positive integer $n$ and every $\delta \in [0,1]$, let $B(n, \delta)$ denote the probabilistic model in which a random set $A \subseteq \{1, \dots, n\}$ is constructed by choosing independently every element of $\{1, \dots, n\}$…
