A Remark on Parity Sequences

چکیده

If n = 2, then the set j£ is closely related to the Fibonacci sequence; specifically, t GT2 iff the 7 term of the Fibonacci sequence is odd. We ask, for each w, which numbers are uniquely expressible as the sum of two distinct elements of Tn. In general, for any given w, one can determine exactly which numbers are uniquely expressible. If w = 2, it is easy to see that there are five such numbers: 3 = 1 + 2, 5 = 1 + 4, 7 = 2 + 5, 8 = 1 + 7, and 10 = 2 + 8. If w = 3, then there are exactly eight uniquely expressible numbers: 3 = 1 + 2, 4 = 1 + 3, 5 = 2 + 3, 6 = 1 + 5, 7 = 2 + 5, 8 = 3 + 5, 9 = 1 + 8, and 16 = 1 + 15. If w = 4, then there are exactly five uniquely expressible numbers: 3 = 1 + 2, 4 = 1 + 3, 6 = 2 + 4, 8 = 2 + 6, and 16 = 4 + 12. If w>3, then 1,2,3 e Tn, so that 3 and 4 are uniquely expressible. The principal theorem of this note answers this question for all other situations. Let U„ be the set of all integers which are uniquely expressible as the sum of two distinct elements of Tn. Thus, we have just observed that U2 = {3,5,7,8,10}, U3 = {3,4,5,6,7,8,9,16}, and U4 = {3,4,6,8,16}. The following principal theorem characterizes Un for n > 5. Theorem: Let n > 5. Then U„ = {3,4, n n + 3, In In + 4} if n = 2 +1 for some 1, and Un = {3,4} otherwise.

A remark on boundedness of composition operators between weighted spaces of holomorphic functions on the upper half-plane

In this paper, we obtain a sucient condition for boundedness of composition operators betweenweighted spaces of holomorphic functions on the upper half-plane whenever our weights are standardanalytic weights, but they don't necessarily satisfy any growth condition.

A short remark on the result of Jozsef Sandor

It is pointed out that, one of the results in the recently published article, ’On the Iyengar-Madhava Rao-Nanjundiah inequality and it’s hyperbolic version’ [3] by J´ozsef S´andor is logically incorrect and new corrected result with it’s proof is presented.

A remark on the means of the number of divisors

‎We obtain the asymptotic expansion of the sequence with general term $frac{A_n}{G_n}$‎, ‎where $A_n$ and $G_n$ are the arithmetic and geometric means of the numbers $d(1),d(2),dots,d(n)$‎, ‎with $d(n)$ denoting the number of positive divisors of $n$‎. ‎Also‎, ‎we obtain some explicit bounds concerning $G_n$ and $frac{A_n}{G_n}$.

A remark on asymptotic enumeration of highest weights in tensor powers of a representation

We consider the semigroup $S$ of highest weights appearing in tensor powers $V^{otimes k}$ of a finite dimensional representation $V$ of a connected reductive group. We describe the cone generated by $S$ as the cone over the weight polytope of $V$ intersected with the positive Weyl chamber. From this we get a description for the asymptotic of the number of highest weights appearing in $V^{otime...
