چکیده

The skew of a binary string is the difference between the number of zeroes and the number of ones, while the length of the string is the sum of these two numbers. We consider certain suffixes of the lexicographicallyleast de Bruijn sequence at natural breakpoints of the binary string. We show that the skew and length of these suffixes are enumerated by sequences generalizing the Fibonacci and Lucas numbers, respectively.

The discrepancy of the lex-least de Bruijn sequence

We answer the following question of R. L. Graham: What is the discrepancy of the lexicographically-least binary de Bruijn sequence? Here, “discrepancy” refers to the maximum (absolute) difference between the number of ones and the number of zeros in any initial segment of the sequence. We show that the answer is Θ(2 log n/n).

A Generalized Fibonacci Sequence and the Diophantine Equations $x^2pm kxy-y^2pm x=0$

In this paper some properties of a generalization of Fibonacci sequence are investigated. Then we solve the Diophantine equations $x^2pmkxy-y^2pm x=0$, where $k$ is positive integer, and describe the structure of solutions.

On Periodic ∞-generalized Fibonacci Sequences

The notion of an∞-generalized Fibonacci sequence has been introduced in [6], and studied in [1], [7], [9]. This class of sequences defined by linear recurrences of infinite order is an extension of the class of ordinary (weighted) r-generalized Fibonacci sequences (r-GFS, for short) with r finite defined by linear recurrences of r order (for example, see [2], [3], [4], [5], [8] etc.) More preci...

On The Second Order Linear Recurrences By Generalized Doubly Stochastic Matrices

In this paper, we consider the relationships between the second order linear recurrences, and the generalized doubly stochastic permanents and determinants. 1. Introduction The Fibonacci sequence, fFng ; is de…ned by the recurrence relation, for n 1 Fn+1 = Fn + Fn 1 (1.1) where F0 = 0; F1 = 1: The Lucas Sequence, fLng ; is de…ned by the recurrence relation, for n 1 Ln+1 = Ln + Ln 1 (1.2) where ...

Non-Abelian Sequenceable Groups Involving ?-Covers

A non-abelian finite group is called sequenceable if for some positive integer , is -generated ( ) and there exist integers such that every element of is a term of the -step generalized Fibonacci sequence , , , . A remarkable application of this definition may be find on the study of random covers in the cryptography. The 2-step generalized sequences for the dihedral groups studi...
