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…
The Collatz map is defined for a positive even integer as half that integer, and for a positive odd integer as that integer threefold, plus one. The Collatz conjecture states that when the map is iterated the number one is eventually…
In this study, the properties of convex hexagons that can form rotationally symmetric edge-to-edge tilings are discussed. Because the convex hexagons are equilateral convex parallelohexagons, convex pentagons generated by bisecting the…
A mathematical method for constructing fractal curves and surfaces, termed the $p\lambda n$ fractal decomposition, is presented. It allows any function to be split into a finite set of fractal discontinuous functions whose sum is equal…
By introducing the hierarchy of Fibonacci divisors and corresponding quantum derivatives, we develop the golden calculus, hierarchy of golden binomials and related exponential functions, translation operator and infinite hierarchy of Golden…
In a base phi representation a natural number is written as a sum of powers of the golden mean $\varphi$. There are many ways to do this. How many? Even if the number of powers of $\varphi$ is finite, then any number has infinitely many…
Classical results on Diophantine approximation, such as Roth's theorem, provide the most effective techniques for proving the transcendence of special kinds of continued fractions. Multidimensional continued fractions are a generalization…
We address the question: Given a positive integer $N$, can any 2D convex polygonal region be partitioned into $N$ convex pieces such that all pieces have the same area and same perimeter? The answer to this question is easily `yes' for…
The Fibonacci sequence $\mathbb{F}$ is the fixed point beginning with $a$ of morphism $\sigma(a,b)=(ab,a)$. In this paper, we get the explicit expressions of all squares and cubes, then we determine the number of distinct squares and cubes…
We study growth rates of generalised Fibonacci sequences of a particular structure. These sequences are constructed from choosing two real numbers for the first two terms and always having the next term be either the sum or the difference…
There is well-known problem of geometric probability which can be quote as the Broken Spaghetti Problem. It addresses the following question: A stick of spaghetti breaks into three parts and all points of the stick have the same probability…
What is the shape of the 2D convex region P from which, when 2 mutually congruent convex pieces with maximum possible area are cut out, the highest fraction of the area of P is left over? When P is restricted to the set of all possible…
This paper characterizes when an $m \times n$ rectangle, where $m$ and $n$ are integers, can be tiled (exactly packed) by squares where each has an integer side length of at least 2. In particular, we prove that tiling is always possible…
Raimi's classical theorem establishes a partition of the natural numbers with a remarkable unavoidability property: for every finite coloring of $\mathbb{N}$, there is a color class whose translate meets both parts of the partition in…
In this paper, it is proved that there is, up to isomorphism, a unique generalized quadrangle of order (4,16).
We treat three recurrences involving square roots, the first of which arises from an infinite simple radical expansion for the Golden mean, whose precise convergence rate was made famous by Richard Bruce Paris in 1987. A never-before-seen…
The metallic means (also known as metallic ratios) may be defined as the limiting ratio of consecutive terms of sequences connected to the Fibonacci sequence via the INVERT transform. For example, the Pell sequence (invert transform of the…
It is well known that the set of origami constructible numbers is larger than the classical straight-edge and compass constructible numbers. However, the Huzita-Justin-Hatori origami constructible numbers remain algebraic so that the…
Edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals are completely classified in a series of three papers. This second one applies the powerful tool of trigonometric Diophantine equations to classify the case of…
In an equiangular spiral, "the whorls continually increase in breadth and do so in a steady and unchanging ratio... It follows that the sectors cut off by successive radii, at equal vectorial angles, are similar to one another in every…
