The trinomial transform of a sequence is a generalization of the well-known binomial transform, replacing binomial coefficients with trinomial coefficients. We examine Pascal-like triangles under trinomial transform, focusing on the ternary…

The binomial interpolated transform of a sequence is a generalization of the well-known binomial transform. We examine a Pascal-like triangle, on which a binomial interpolated transform works between the left and right diagonals, focusing…

We consider series of the form $$ \frac{p}{q} +\sum_{j=2}^\infty \frac{1}{x_j}, $$ where $x_1=q$ and the integer sequence $(x_n)$ satisfies a certain non-autonomous recurrence of second order, which entails that $x_n|x_{n+1}$ for $n\geq 1$.…

We give combinatorial descriptions of the terms occurring in continuants of general continued fractions that diverge to three limits. Equating these with the usual combinatorial descriptions due to Euler, Sylvester, and Minding induces…

We prove several evaluations of determinants of matrices, the entries of which are given by the recurrence $a_{i,j}=a_{i-1,j}+a_{i,j-1}$, or variations thereof. These evaluations were either conjectured or extend conjectures by Roland…

In this paper, we introduce a new generalization of Pascal's triangle. The new object is called the hyperbolic Pascal triangle since the mathematical background goes back to regular mosaics on the hyperbolic plane. We describe precisely the…

We give a generalization of the Pascal triangle called the quasi s-Pascal triangle where the sum of the elements crossing the diagonal rays produce the s-bonacci sequence. For this, consider a lattice path in the plane whose step set is {L…

We show that essentially the Fibonacci sequence is the unique binary recurrence which contains infinitely many three-term arithmetic progressions. A criterion for general linear recurrences having infinitely many three-term arithmetic…

We consider the sequence of integers whose $n$th term has base-$p$ expansion given by the $n$th row of Pascal's triangle modulo $p$ (where $p$ is a prime number). We first present and generalize well-known relations concerning this…

We reformulate several known results about continued fractions in combinatorial terms. Among them the theorem of Conway and Coxeter and that of Series, both relating continued fractions and triangulations. More general polygon dissections…

This article demonstrates, using numerous examples of varying complexity, how one can visually prove summation formulas involving binomial coefficients by exclusively using the recurrence relation for binomial coefficients and its…

A new generalization of Pascal's triangle, the so-called hyperbolic Pascal triangles were introduced in [H.B, L.N, L.Sz: Hyperbolic Pascal triangles]. The mathematical background goes back to the regular mosaics in the hyperbolic plane. The…

The aim of this paper is to study linear preservers of the trace of Kronecker sums and their connection with preservers of determinants of Kronecker products. The partial trace and partial determinant play a fundamental role in…

In the present work, we investigate real numbers whose sequence of partial quotients enjoys some combinatorial properties involving the notion of palindrome. We provide three new transendence criteria, that apply to a broad class of…

The Fibonacci sequence is obtained as weighted sum along the rows in the Pascal triangle by choosing a periodic up-and-down pattern of weights from the set $\{-1,-\frac{1}{2},0, \frac{1}{2}, 1\}$. A graphical illustration of this identity…

We introduce a notion of $q$-deformed rational numbers and $q$-deformed continued fractions. A $q$-deformed rational is encoded by a triangulation of a polygon and can be computed recursively. The recursive formula is analogous to the…

We consider a family of integer sequences generated by nonlinear recurrences of the second order, which have the curious property that the terms of the sequence, and integer multiples of the ratios of successive terms (which are also…

A stationary random sequence admits under some assumptions a representation as the sum of two others: one of them is a martingale difference sequence, and another is a so-called coboundary. Such a representation can be used for proving some…

This paper presents a reinterpretation of a second-order linear recurrence sequence as a sequence of continuants derived from the convergents to a continued fraction. As a result, we are able to derive the generating function and Binet…

We define a set theoretic "analytic continuation" of a polytope defined by inequalities. For the regular values of the parameter, our construction coincides with the parallel transport of polytopes in a mirage introduced by Varchenko. We…
