The Log-Behavior of Some Sequences Related to the Generalized Leonardo Numbers

Summary: Let \(\{\mathcal{L}_{k,n}\}_{n \geq 0}\) denote the generalized Leonardo sequence, where \(k\) is a fixed positive integer. In this paper, we discuss the log-behavior of some sequences related to \(\mathcal{L}_{k,n}\). For example, we show that the sequences \(\{\sqrt[n]{\mathcal{L}_{k,n}}\}_{n\geq 9}\) and \(\{\mathcal{L}^n_{k,n}\}_{n \geq 3}\

The economic foundations of powersharing: Evidence from Africa

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract How—and with whom—do rulers share power? Existing research focuses on the strategic logic of powersharing. In this paper, we analyze its economic foundations. Powersharing is modeled as a subnational fiscal contract, in which rulers allocate political representation based on constituencies’ revenue potential. Empirically, we combine historical

Closed-form Solutions of Third-Order Generalized Leonardo Sequences with Polynomial Input

Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science
The objective of this study is to derive closed-form solutions to third-order nonhomogeneous linear recurrence relations, referred to as generalized Leonardo-type sequences, where the input function p(n) is a polynomial. The study considers the cases in which 1 appears as a root of the characteristic equation with multiplicity r = 0,1,2,3, and for each

Weaponry Investment in the Socially Monogamous Snapping Shrimp Alpheus brasileiro (Decapoda: Alpheidae)

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Weapons are morphological structures used by animals in various contexts, especially in intra‐specific contests and visual displays. In snapping shrimps of the genus Alpheus, particularly the monogamous species Alpheus brasileiro, both sexes bear enlarged chelipeds, potentially conferring advantages in mate competition or territorial defence ...

Similar or Different? Configurations of Authenticity Across Museum Types

Curator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Authenticity is traditionally regarded as playing a crucial role in museums, science centers, and memorials. However, despite this fact, authenticity has very different meanings in different (institutional) settings. This complicates shared communications across museum practices.

Structure of AI Responses With Complex Patient Analysis for Patient Alternatives and Patient Modifiers

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Artificial intelligence (AI) is already a powerful tool that is rapidly growing within the dental sector. Reports of structure and characteristics of AI responses to patient scenarios are limited. Purpose To analyse characteristics and structure of AI responses to prompts for treatment planning alternatives and patient alternatives ...

Three decades of research on the association between temporomandibular disorders and headache: A bibliometric analysis

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To perform a bibliometric analysis of the scientific literature published over the past 3 decades on the relationship between temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) and headache, examining scientific production, citation impact, and the conceptual structure and temporal evolution of research topics in this field. Background TMDs are the

Comparing deep learning models for butterfly and moth (Lepidoptera) species identification

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Deep learning models open new possibilities for the processing of image‐based species records. We used high‐performance computing to compare 40 models for butterfly and moth species identification based on a citizen science dataset with over 500,000 images of 162 species.

Twenty‐Five‐Year Follow‐Up of Individuals With Intact Periodontium and Differing Susceptibility to Experimentally Induced Gingival Inflammation

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the periodontal condition of individuals with different susceptibility to dental biofilm–induced gingivitis 25 years after their classification as high responders (HR) or low responders (LR) to plaque. Methods Forty‐eight systemically and periodontally healthy young adults who participated in a 21‐day experimental gingivitis ...
