For the OEIS sequence A025166, defined by $a(n) = -n!\,2^{n}\,L_{n}(1/2)$ where $L_{n}$ is the Laguerre polynomial of degree $n$, R.~J.~Mathar contributed in February 2013 the conjectured order-2 P-recursive recurrence \[ a(n) + (-4n+3)\,…

For the OEIS sequence A176677, defined by the quadratic convolution recurrence $a(0) = a(1) = 1$ and $a(n+1) = \sum_{p=0}^n a(p) a(n-p) - 1$ for $n \ge 1$, R.~J.~Mathar contributed in March 2016 the conjectured order-4 P-recursive…

For the OEIS sequence A002627, defined by the inhomogeneous first-order recurrence $a(n) = n\,a(n-1) + 1$ with $a(0) = 0$, R.~J.~Mathar recorded in February 2014 the conjectured second-order homogeneous recurrence \[ a(n) - (n+1)\,a(n-1) +…

For the OEIS sequence A032123, the number of length-$2n$ black-and-white strings with $n$ black beads, considered up to reversal, R. J. Mathar contributed in November 2013 the conjectured order-5 P-recursive recurrence \[ \begin{aligned}…

For the OEIS sequence A001711, contributed by N. J. A. Sloane long before the on-line era and identified there as the diagonal $T(n+4, 4)$ of a generalized-Stirling triangle, R. J. Mathar contributed in February 2020 the conjectured order-2…

For OEIS sequence A045406, the column-2 diagonal of the Lehmer-Comtet triangle A008296, R. J. Mathar contributed in September 2021 the conjectured order-2 P-recursive recurrence \[ a(n) + (2n-7)\,a(n-1) + (n-4)^{2}\,a(n-2) \;=\; 0,\qquad n…

For the OEIS sequence A348410, P. Bala recorded in February 2022 two equivalent closed forms, $a(n) = [x^{n}] ((1-x)(1-x^2))^{-n}$ and a single-index binomial sum. R. J. Mathar (October 2021) and V. Kotesovec (November 2021) each…

In this work, we prove the existence of linear recurrences of order M with a non-trivial solution vanishing exactly on the set of gaps (or a subset) of a numerical semigroup S finitely generated by a1 < a2 <...< aN and M = aN. Keywords:…

The On-Line Encyclopedia Of Integer Sequences , that wonderful resource that most combinatorialists, and many other mathematicians and scientists, use at least once a day, is a treasure trove of mathematical information, and, one of its…

We study the recurrence coefficients of the monic polynomials $P_n(z)$ orthogonal with respect to the deformed (also called semi-classical) Freud weight \begin{equation*} w_{\alpha}(x;s,N)=|x|^{\alpha}{\rm…

We prove that for a positive integer a the integer sequence P(n) satisfying for all n, -infty<n<infty, the recurrence P(n)=a+P(n-phi(a)), phi(a) the Euler function, generates in increasing order all integers P(n) coprime to a.The finite…

For $n=0,1,2,\ldots$ let $d_n^{(r)}(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{x+r+k}k\binom{x-r}{n-k}$. In this paper we illustrate the connection between $\{d_n^{(r)}(x)\}$ and Meixner polynomials. New formulas and recurrence relations for $d_n^{(r)}(x)$ are…

Let $f=\sum_{n=0}^\infty f_n x^n \in \overline{\mathbb Q}[[x]$ be a solution of an algebraic differential equation $Q(x,y(x), \ldots, y^{(k)}(x))=0$, where $Q$ is a multivariate polynomial with coefficients in $\overline{\mathbb Q}$. The…

Every classical orthogonal polynomial system $p_n(x)$ satisfies a three-term recurrence relation of the type \[ p_{n+1}(x)=(A_nx+B_n)p_n(x)-C_np_{n-1}(x)~ (n=0,1,2,\ldots, p_{-1}\equiv 0), \] with $C_nA_nA_{n-1}>0$. Moreover, Favard's…

Let M be a random (alpha n) x n matrix of rank r<<n, and assume that a uniformly random subset E of its entries is observed. We describe an efficient algorithm that reconstructs M from |E| = O(rn) observed entries with relative root mean…

$a_n=[x^n](1-x)^{-n}(1-x^2)^{-n}$ is the sequence A348410 in the Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. Using a method from Hautus and Klarner from 1971 and the software \textsf{Gfun} we find an algebraic equation for the generating function…

A nonempty set $F$ is Schreier if $\min F\ge |F|$. Bird observed that counting Schreier sets in a certain way produces the Fibonacci sequence. Since then, various connections between variants of Schreier sets and well-known sequences have…

After defining a notion of $\epsilon$-density, we provide for any real algebraic number $\alpha$ an estimate of the smallest $\epsilon$ such that for each $m>1$ the set of vectors of the form $(t,t\alpha,...,t\alpha^{m-1})$ for $t\in\R$ is…

We show that the generating function $\sum_{n\ge0}M_n\,z^n$ for Motzkin numbers $M_n$, when coefficients are reduced modulo a given power of $2$, can be expressed as a polynomial in the basic series $\sum _{e\ge0} ^{} {z^{4^e}}/(…

One of the most interesting results of the last century was the proof completed by Matijasevich that computably enumerable sets are precisely the diophantine sets [MRDP Theorem, 9], thus settling, based on previously developed machinery,…
