Extended Fibonacci numbers and polynomials with probability applications
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2004, Issue 50, Page 2681-2693, 2004., 2004 The extended Fibonacci sequence of numbers and polynomials is introduced and studied. The generating function, recurrence relations, an expansion in terms of multinomial coefficients, and several properties of the extended Fibonacci numbers and ...

The number of distinct adjacent pairs in geometrically distributed words: a probabilistic and combinatorial analysis [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2023 The analysis of strings of $n$ random variables with geometric distribution has recently attracted renewed interest: Archibald et al. consider the number of distinct adjacent pairs in geometrically distributed words.

A note on limits of sequences of binary trees [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2023 We discuss a notion of convergence for binary trees that is based on subtree sizes. In analogy to recent developments in the theory of graphs, posets and permutations we investigate some general aspects of the topology, such as a characterization of the ...

Bounded affine permutations I. Pattern avoidance and enumeration [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2021 We introduce a new boundedness condition for affine permutations, motivated by the fruitful concept of periodic boundary conditions in statistical physics. We study pattern avoidance in bounded affine permutations.

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 17-e6, February 2022., 2022 Background – Because of the increased incidence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacteria, the use of disinfectants over antibiotics has been encouraged. However, the interactions between disinfectants and host local immunity are poorly understood. Objective – To assess the effects of chlorhexidine digluconate (Chx), with and without selected host defence ...

On an alternative sequence comparison statistic of Steele [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2020 The purpose of this paper is to study a statistic that is used to compare the similarity between two strings, which is first introduced by Michael Steele in 1982.

Cosine polynomials with few zeros
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 877-892, June 2021., 2021 Abstract In a celebrated paper, Borwein, Erdélyi, Ferguson and Lockhart constructed cosine polynomials of the form fA(x)=∑a∈Acos(ax),with A⊆N, |A|=n and as few as n5/6+o(1) zeros in [0,2π], thereby disproving an old conjecture of Littlewood. Here we give a sharp analysis of their constructions and, as a result, prove that there exist examples with as ...

Expected size of a tree in the fixed point forest [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2019 We study the local limit of the fixed-point forest, a tree structure associated to a simple sorting algorithm on permutations. This local limit can be viewed as an infinite random tree that can be constructed from a Poisson point process configuration on

EXPECTED MEAN WIDTH OF THE RANDOMIZED INTEGER CONVEX HULL
Mathematika, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 422-433, April 2021., 2021 Abstract Let K⊂Rd be a convex body, and assume that L is a randomly rotated and shifted integer lattice. Let KL be the convex hull of the (random) points K∩L. The mean width W(KL) of KL is investigated. The asymptotic order of the mean width difference W(λK)−W((λK)L) is maximized by the order obtained by polytopes and minimized by the order for smooth ...
