Narayana's cows problem is a problem similar to the Fibonacci's rabbit problem. We define the numbers which are the solutions of this problem as Narayana's cows numbers. Narayana's cows sequence satisfies the third order recurrence relation…

Recently Mansour and Shattuck studied $(k,a)$-paths and gave formulas that relate the total number of humps (peaks) in all $(k,a)$-paths to the number of super $(k,a)$-paths. These results generalize earlier results of Regev on Dyck paths…

Let $N(n,r,k)$ denote the number of binary words of length $n$ that begin with $0$ and contain exactly $k$ runs (i.e., maximal subwords of identical consecutive symbols) of length $r$. We show that the generating function for the sequence…

In this paper, we find all repdigits which can be expressed as the product of a Narayana, and a product of two repdigits is Narayana.

Riordan matrices are infinite lower triangular matrices corresponding to the certain operators in the space of formal power series. Generalized Euler polynomials ${{g}_{n}}\left( x \right)={{\left( 1-x…

Recently, a new class of words, denoted by L_n, was shown to be in bijection with a subset of the Dyck paths of length 2n having cardinality given by the (n-1)-st Catalan number. Here, we consider statistics on L_n recording the number of…

Gamma-positivity appears frequently in finite geometries, combinatorics and number theory. Motivated by the recent work of Sagan and Tirrell (Adv. Math., 374 (2020), 107387), we study the relationships between gamma-positivity and…

We study a new kind of symmetric polynomials P_n(x_1,...,x_m) of degree n in m real variables, which have arisen in the theory of numerical semigroups. We establish their basic properties and find their representation through the power sums…

This paper is concerned with the distribution in the complex plane of the roots of a polynomial sequence $\{W_n(x)\}_{n\ge0}$ given by a recursion $W_n(x)=aW_{n-1}(x)+(bx+c)W_{n-2}(x)$, with $W_0(x)=1$ and $W_1(x)=t(x-r)$, where $a>0$,…

A new method of composition orthogonality is introduced. It is applied to generate new sequences of orthogonal polynomials and functions. In particular, classical orthogonal polynomials are interpreted in the sense of composition…

In the study of a tantalizing symmetry on Catalan objects, B\'ona et al. introduced a family of polynomials $\{W_{n,k}(x)\}_{n\geq k\geq 0}$ defined by \begin{align*} W_{n,k}(x)=\sum_{m=0}^{k}w_{n,k,m}x^{m}, \end{align*} where $w_{n,k,m}$…

The Narayana morphism $\nu$ maps $0 \rightarrow 01$, $1 \rightarrow 2$, $2 \rightarrow 0$ and has a fixed point $\mathbf{n} = n_0 n_1 n_2 \cdots = {\tt 0120010120120}\cdots$. In this paper we study the properties of this word and related…

We prove two recent conjectures of Bourn and Erickson (2023) regarding the real-rootedness of a certain family of polynomials $N_n(t)$ as well as the sum of their coefficients. These polynomials arise as the numerators of generating…

By using the work of Frantzikinakis and Wierdl, we can see that for all $d\in\mathbb{N}$, $\alpha\in(d,d+1)$, and integers $k\ge d+2$ and $r\ge1$, there exist infinitely many $n\in\mathbb{N}$ such that the sequence…

In this paper, we show that various kinds of integer polynomials with prescribed properties of their roots have positive density. For example, we prove that almost all integer polynomials have exactly one or two roots with maximal modulus.…

We first establish the result that the Narayana polynomials can be represented as the integrals of the Legendre polynomials. Then we represent the Catalan numbers in terms of the Narayana polynomials by three different identities. We give…

In this paper we introduce the polynomials $\{d_n^{(r)}(x)\}$ and $\{D_n^{(r)}(x)\}$ given by $d_n^{(r)}(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{x+r+k}k\binom{x-r}{n-k} \ (n\ge 0)$, $D_0^{(r)}(x)=1,\ D_1^{(r)}(x)=x$ and…

Given a graph $G$ of order $n$, the $\sigma$-$polynomial$ of $G$ is the generating function $\sigma(G,x) = \sum a_{i}x^{i}$ where $a_{i}$ is the number of partitions of the vertex set of $G$ into $i$ nonempty independent sets. Such…

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the maximum magnitude of a complex random polynomial with i.i.d. uniformly distributed random roots on the unit circle. More specifically, let $\{n_k\}_{k=1}^{\infty}$ be an infinite…

We define a weighted analog for the multidimensional Catalan numbers, obtain matrix-based recurrences for some of them, and give conditions under which they are periodic. Building on this framework, we introduce two new sequences of…
