As a generalization of polyominoes we consider edge-to-edge connected nonoverlapping unions of regular $k$-gons. For $n\le 4$ we determine formulas for the number $a_k(n)$ of generalized polyominoes consisting of $n$ regular $k$-gons.…
Let the sequence S_m of nonnegative integers be generated by the following conditions: Set the first term a_0 = 0, and for all k \geq 0, let a_k+1 be the least integer greater than a_k such that no element of {a_0,...,a_k+1} is the average…
We study the uniform distribution of the polynomial sequence $\lambda(P)=(\lfloor P(k) \rfloor )_{k\geq 1}$ modulo integers, where $P(x)$ is a polynomial with real coefficients. In the nonlinear case, we show that $\lambda(P)$ is uniformly…
Given a linear recurrence of the form $c_n=a_1c_{n-1}+\cdots+a_j c_{n-j}$, it is well-known that $c_n=\sum_{r}p_r(n)r^n$, where the sum is taken over the set of characteristic roots and each $p_r(n)$ is some polynomial. We give a closed…
Let $F_n(k)$ be the generalized Fibonacci number defined by (with $F_i(k)$ abbreviated to $F_i$): $F_n = F_{n-1} + F_{n-2} + \dots + F_{n-k}$, for $n \geq k$, and the initial values $(F_0,F_1,...,F_{k-1})$. Let $B_n(k,j)$ be $F_n(k)$ with…
Let $\mathscr{A}$ be a nonempty set of infinite matrices of linear operators between two topological vector spaces. We show that a sequence is uniformly $\mathscr{A}$-summable if and only if it is $B$-summable for all matrices $B$ of linear…
We obtain the Mellin transforms of the generalized fractional integrals and derivatives that generalize the Riemann-Liouville and the Hadamard fractional integrals and derivatives. We also obtain interesting results, which combine…
We observe \cite[Proposition 4.1]{LaLe} that Poisson polynomial extensions appear as semiclassical limits of a class of Ore extensions. As an application, a Poisson generalized Weyl algebra $A_1$ considered as a Poisson version of the…
We provide several simple recursive formulae for the moment sequence of infinite Bernoulli convolution. We relate moments of one infinite Bernoulli convolution with others having different but related parameters. We give examples relating…
We continue and generalise our earlier investigations of the number of squares in binary recurrence sequences. Here we consider sequences, $\left( y_{k} \right)_{k=-\infty}^{\infty}$, arising from the solutions of generalised negative Pell…
We show that the Catalan-Schroeder convolution recurrences and their higher order generalizations can be solved using Riordan arrays and the Catalan numbers. We investigate the Hankel transforms of many of the recurrence solutions, and…
In this paper we report a few examples of algebraically solvable dynamical systems characterized by 2 coupled Ordinary Differential Equations which read as follows: x_n = P(n) (x1, x2) , n = 1, 2 , with P(n) (x1, x2) specific polynomials of…
In this paper, we prove that a class of regular sequences can be viewed as projections of fixed points of uniform morphisms on a countable alphabet, and also can be generated by countable states automata. Moreover, we prove that the…
We prove a generalisation of Vinogradov's theorem by finding for $m\geqslant 3$ and fixed positive integers $c_1, \dots ,c_m, r_1, \dots , r_m$ the asymptotics of the number of sequences $(n_1, \dots ,n_m) \in \mathbf{N}^{m}$ such that…
Labeled infinite trees provide combinatorial interpretations for many integer sequences generated by nested recurrence relations. Typically, such sequences are monotone increasing. Several of these sequences also have straightforward…
We show that any graph polynomial from a wide class of graph polynomials yields a recurrence relation on an infinite class of families of graphs. The recurrence relations we obtain have coefficients which themselves satisfy linear…
We study the recursions $A(n) = A(n-a-A^k(n-b)) + A(A^k(n-b))$ where $a \geq 0$, $b \geq 1$ are integers and the superscript $k$ denotes a $k$-fold composition, and also the recursion $C(n) = C(n-s-C(n-1)) + C(n-s-2-C(n-3))$ where $s \geq…
We pose thirty conjectures on arithmetical sequences, most of which are about monotonicity of sequences of the form $(\root n\of{a_n})_{n\ge 1}$ or the form $(\root{n+1}\of{a_{n+1}}/\root n\of{a_n})_{n\ge1}$, where $(a_n)_{n\ge 1}$ is a…
For a fixed integer $k$, we define a sequence $A_k=(a_k(n))_{n\geq0}$ and a corresponding sparse subsequence $S_k$ using the cardinality of the $n$-th symmetric power of the set $\{1,2,\ldots, k\}$. For $k\in\{2,\dots,8\}$, we find…
Let $S_b(n)$ denote the sum of the squares of the digits of the positive integer $n$ in base $b\geq2$. It is well-known that the sequence of iterates of $S_b(n)$ terminates in a fixed point or enters a cycle. Let $N=2n-1$, $n\geq2$. It is…
