Further proofs of conjectures from the OEIS

Sela Fried

Abstract

This is the fourth work in a series devoted to proving conjectures recorded in the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS). The problems considered here concern elementary and multiplicative number theory, Fibonacci numbers, decimal concatenation, Diophantine and Pell equations, binary representations and bitwise operations, lattice paths, parity patterns, recurrences, and formal power series. Several of the results give complete characterizations of the relevant sequences; others establish exact identities, recurrences, generating functions, asymptotic estimates, integrality properties, or nonoccurrence results. The proofs use combinatorial bijections, congruences, Möbius inversion, valuations, Fibonacci identities, Pell-type arguments, Lucas' theorem, Riordan arrays, Lagrange inversion, and generating-function methods.
