For every non-negative integer $a$ and positive integer $b$, the congruence speed of the tetration $^{b}a$ is the difference between the number of the rightmost digits of $^{b}a$ that are the same as those of $^{b+1}a$ and the number of the…

This paper provides a link between integer exponentiation and integer tetration since it is devoted to introducing some peculiar sets of perfect powers characterized by any given value of their constant congruence speed, revealing a…

We solve a few open problems related to a peculiar property of the integer tetration ${^{b}a}$, which is the constancy of its congruence speed for any sufficiently large $b=b(a)$. Assuming radix-$10$ (the well-known decimal numeral system),…

In this paper will be proved the existence of a formula to reduce a tetration of base $2^{k}$ and $5^{k}$ $\mod 10^{n}$. Indeed, last digits of a tetration are the same starting from a certain hyper-exponent; In order to compute the last…

This paper investigates the behavior of the last digits of a tetration of generic base. In fact, last digits of a tetration are the same starting from a certain hyper-exponent and in order to compute them we reduce those expressions $\mod…

In our recent work on iterative computation in hardware, we showed that arbitrary-precision solvers can perform more favorably than their traditional arithmetic equivalents when the latter's precisions are either under- or over-budgeted for…

The algebraic stability theorem for $\mathbb{R}$-persistence modules is a fundamental result in topological data analysis. We present a stability theorem for $n$-dimensional rectangle decomposable persistence modules up to a constant…

The mathematical constant pi has recently been computed up to 22,459,157,718,361 decimal and 18,651,926,753,033 hexadecimal digits. As a simple check for the normality of pi, the frequencies of all sequences with length one, two and three…

The stable torsion length in a group is the stable word length with respect to the set of all torsion elements. We show that the stable torsion length vanishes in crystallographic groups. We then give a linear programming algorithm to…

In the decimal numeral system, we prove that the well-known Graham's number, $G := \! ^{n}3$ (i.e., $3^{3^{\cdot^{\cdot^{\cdot^{3}}}}}$ ($n$ times)), and any base $3$ tetration whose hyperexponent is larger than $n$ share the same…

We consider random boolean cellular automata on the integer lattice, i.e., the cells are identified with the integers from 1 to $N$. The behaviour of the automaton is mainly determined by the support of the random variable that selects one…

Under the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, any integer $n>1$ can be uniquely written as a product of prime powers $p^a$; factoring each exponent $a$ as a product of prime powers $q^b$, and so on, one will obtain what is called the tower…

The distinguishing number $D(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$ such that $G$ has a vertex labeling with $d$ labels that is preserved only by a trivial automorphism. The distinguishing stability, of a graph $G$ is denoted by…

We study the structure of trees minimizing their number of stable sets for given order $n$ and stability number $\alpha$. Our main result is that the edges of a non-trivial extremal tree can be partitioned into $n-\alpha$ stars, each of…

Iterative methods play an important role in science and engineering applications, with uses ranging from linear system solvers in finite element methods to optimization solvers in model predictive control. Recently, a new computational…

Stable gonality is a multigraph parameter that measures the complexity of a graph. It is defined using maps to trees. Those maps, in some sense, divide the edges equally over the edges of the tree; stable gonality asks for the map with the…

Let $a,k\in\mathbb{N}$. For the $k-1$-th iterate of the exponential function $x\mapsto a^x$, also known as tetration, we write \[ ^k a:=a^{a^{.^{.^{.^{a}}}}}. \] In this paper, we show how an efficient algorithm for tetration modulo natural…

We consider the problem of enumerating integer tetrahedra of fixed perimeter (sum of side-lengths) and/or diameter (maximum side-length), up to congruence. As we will see, this problem is considerably more difficult than the corresponding…

We elaborate a scheme of trapping-expulsion management (TEM), in the form of the quadratic potential periodically switching between confinement and expulsion, as a means of stabilization of two-dimensional dynamical states against the…

We introduce the concept of stable index for 0-1 matrices. Let $A$ be a 0-1 square matrix. If $A^k$ is a 0-1 matrix for every positive integer $k$, then the stable index of $A$ is defined to be infinity; otherwise, the stable index of $A$…
