Throughout history, recreational mathematics has always played a prominent role in advancing research. Following in this tradition, in this paper we extend some recent work with crazy sequential representations of numbers- equations made of…
We prove without appeal to the Axiom of Choice that for any sets A and B, if there is a one-to-one correspondence between 3 cross A and 3 cross B then there is a one-to-one correspondence between A and B. The first such proof, due to…
Recently, Naruse presented a beautiful cancellation-free hook-length formula for skew shapes. The formula involves a sum over objects called excited diagrams, and the term corresponding to each excited diagram has hook lengths in the…
The Gauss--Lucas and B\^{o}cher--Grace--Marden theorems are classical results in the geometry of polynomials. Proofs of the these results are available in the literature, but the approaches are seemingly different. In this work, we show…
In this study, we explore the properties of certain solutions of Hofstadter's famous $V$-recurrence, defined by the nested recurrence relation $V(n)=V(n-V(n-1))+V(n-V(n-4))$. First, we discover the nature behind a finite chaotic…
For earlier considered our sequence A166944 in [4] we prove three statements of its connection with twin primes. We also give a sufficient condition for the infinity of twin primes and pose several new conjectures; among them we propose a…
Shmuel Friedland and Giorgio Ottaviani's beautiful constant term expression for the number of singular vector tuples of generic tensors is used to derive a rational generating function for these numbers, that in turn, is used to obtain an…
For a non-negative integer $m$, let $S(m)$ denote the sum given by $$S(m):=\sum_{n=0}^{m}\frac{(-1)^n(8n+1)}{n!^3}\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)_n^3.$$ Using the powerful WZ-method, for a prime $p\equiv 3$ $($mod $4)$ and an odd integer $r>1$, we…
In this paper we firstly review how to \textit{explicitly} solve a system of $3$ \textit{first-order linear recursions }and outline the main properties of these solutions. Next, via a change of variables, we identify a class of systems of…
We introduce a recurrence which we term the multidimensional cube recurrence, generalizing the octahedron recurrence studied by Propp, Fomin and Zelevinsky, Speyer, and Fock and Goncharov and the three-dimensional cube recurrence studied by…
We characterize the integers n such that $x\mapsto x^3$ describes a bijection from the set $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ to itself and we determine the frequency of these integers. Precisely, denoting by $W$ the set of these integers, we prove…
The classical Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres theorem dating back almost a hundred years states that any sequence of $(n-1)^2+1$ distinct real numbers contains a monotone subsequence of length $n$. This theorem has been generalised to higher dimensions…
The Fibonacci sequence $\mathbb{F}$ is the fixed point beginning with $a$ of morphism $\sigma(a,b)=(ab,a)$. Since $\mathbb{F}$ is uniformly recurrent, each factor $\omega$ appears infinite many times in the sequence which is arranged as…
Recently, using modular forms F. Beukers posed a unified method that can deal with a large number of supercongruences involving binomial coefficients and Ap\'ery-like numbers. In this paper, we use Beukers' method to prove some conjectures…
We introduce a sequent calculus with a simple restriction of Lambek's product rules that precisely captures the classical Tamari order, i.e., the partial order on fully-bracketed words (equivalently, binary trees) induced by a…
A numeral system is an infinite sequence of different closed normal $\lambda$-terms intended to code the integers in $\lambda$-calculus. H. Barendregt has shown that if we can represent, for a numeral system, the functions : Successor,…
In our previous work arXiv:1305.3543, we employed the approach to Schubert polynomials by Fomin, Stanley, and Kirillov to obtain simple, uniform proofs that the double Schubert polynomials of Lascoux and Schutzenberger and Ikeda, Mihalcea,…
Zeckendorf's theorem states that every positive integer can be written uniquely as the sum of non-consecutive shifted Fibonacci numbers $\{F_n\}$, where we take $F_1=1$ and $F_2=2$. This has been generalized for any Positive Linear…
While Kronecker coefficients $g(\lambda,\mu,\nu)$ with bounded rows are polynomial-time computable via lattice-point methods, no explicit closed-form formulas have been obtained for genuinely three-row cases in the 87 years since…
Markov numbers are integers that appear in triples which are solutions of a Diophantine equation, the so-called Markov cubic $$x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - 3x y z = 0.$$ A classical topic in number theory, these numbers are related to many areas of…
