In this paper, generalized Pell graphs $\Pi _{n,k}$, $k\ge 2$, are introduced. The special case of $k=2$ are the Pell graphs $\Pi _{n}$ defined earlier by Munarini. Several metric, enumerative, and structural properties of these graphs are…

For any integer $k \geq 2$, let $\{Q_{n}^{(k)} \}_{n \geq -(k-2)}$ denote the $k$-generalized Pell-Lucas sequence which starts with $0, \dots ,2,2$($k$ terms) where each next term is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In this paper, we…

Let $k \ge 2$ and consider the sequence $\{P_n^{(k)}\}_{n \ge 2-k}$ of $k$-generalized Pell numbers, which begins with the first $k$ terms as $0, \ldots, 0, 0, 1$, and satisfies the recurrence relation $P_n^{(k)} = 2P_{n-1}^{(k)} +…

In this paper we consider $N$, the number of solutions $(x,y,u,v)$ to the equation $ (-1)^u r a^x + (-1)^v s b^y = c$ in nonnegative integers $x, y$ and integers $u, v \in \{0,1\}$, for given integers $a>1$, $b>1$, $c>0$, $r>0$ and $s>0$.…

In this paper, we study numbers $n$ that can be factored in four different ways as $n = A B = (A + a_1) (B - b_1) = (A + a_2) (B - b_2) = (A + a_3) (B - b_3)$ with $B \le A$, $1 \le a_1 < a_2 < a_3 \le C$ and $1 \le b_1 < b_2 < b_3 \le C$.…

We consider the negative polynomial Pell's equation $P^2(X)-D(X)Q^2(X)=-1$, where $D(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ be some fixed, monic, square-free, even degree polynomials. In this paper, we investigate the existence of polynomial solutions $P(X),…

In this paper, we define k-generalized order-k numbers and we obtain a relation between i-th sequences and k-th sequences of k-generalized order-k numbers. We give some determinantal and permanental representations of k-generalized order-k…

Motivated by the study of the distribution of zeros of generalized Bessel-type functions, the principal goal of this paper is to identify new research directions in the theory of multiplier sequences. The investigations focus on multiplier…

In this paper, we study a class of sequences of polynomials linked to the sequence of Bell polynomials. Some sequences of this class have applications on the theory of hyperbolic differential equations and other sequences generalize…

For any function F(x) having a Taylor expansion we solve the boson normal ordering problem for F[(a*)^r a^s], with r,s positive integers,[a,a*]=1, i.e. we provide exact and explicit expressions for its normal form which has all a's to the…

We study the generalized Hankel transform of the family of sequences satisfying the recurrence relation $a_{n+1} = \bigl(\alpha + \frac{\beta}{n+\gamma}\bigr) a_n$. We apply the obtained formula to several particular important sequences.…

A construction of new sequences of generalized Bernoulli polynomials of first and second kind is proposed. These sequences share with the classical Bernoulli polynomials many algebraic and number--theoretical properties. A new class of…

Regular sequences are natural generalisations of fixed points of constant-length substitutions on finite alphabets, that is, of automatic sequences. Using the harmonic analysis of measures associated with substitutions as motivation, we…

The partial sums of integer sequences that count the occurrences of a specific pattern in the binary expansion of positive integers have been investigated by different authors since the 1950s. In this note, we introduce generalized pattern…

We study sets of integers that can be defined by the vanishing of a generalised polynomial expression. We show that this includes sets of values of linear recurrent sequences of Salem type and some linear recurrent sequences of Pisot type.…

The Pell equation $x^2 - Dy^2 = 1$ with non-square $D > 1$ has infinitely many integer solutions, yet most research has centered on the asymptotic behavior of fundamental units as $D$ varies. By contrast, the exact distribution of solutions…

A new family of generalized Pell numbers was recently introduced and studied by Br\'od \cite{Dorota}. These number possess, as Fibonacci numbers, a Binet formula. Using this, partial sums of arbitrary powers of generalized Pell numbers can…

The Stern sequence (s(n)) is defined by s(0) = 0, s(1) = 1, s(2n) = s(n), s(2n+1) = s(n) + s(n+1). Stern showed in 1858 that gcd(s(n),s(n+1)) = 1, and that for every pair of relatively prime positive integers (a,b), there exists a unique n…

A Skolem sequence is a sequence a_1,a_2,...,a_2n (where a_i \in A = {1,...,n }), each a_i occurs exactly twice in the sequence and the two occurrences are exactly a_i positions apart. A set A that can be used to construct Skolem sequences…

First, we consider the equation $ax^2 - by^2 + c = 0$, with $a,b \in N*$ and $c \in Z*$, which is a generalization of Pell's equation. Here, we show that: if this equation has an integer solution and $ab$ is not a perfect square, then it…
