Difference in the Number of Summands in the Zeckendorf Partitions of Consecutive Integers
Hung Viet Chu
Zeckendorf proved that every positive integer has a unique partition as a sum of non-consecutive Fibonacci numbers. We study the difference between the number of summands in the pa…
Visualize Geometric Series
Hung Viet Chu
We review Mabry's, Edgar's, and the Viewpoints 2000 Group's proofs without words for the geometric series formula. Mabry and Edgar proved without words that $$\frac{1}{4} + \left(\…
On Generalized Zeckendorf Decompositions and Generalized Golden Strings
Hung Viet Chu
Zeckendorf proved that every positive integer has a unique representation as a sum of non-consecutive Fibonacci numbers. A natural generalization of this theorem is to look at the…
Various Sequences from Counting Subsets
Hung Viet Chu
We count the number of subsets of under different conditions and study the sequence obtained as we let increase.
Generalizing the Distribution of Missing Sums in Sumsets
Hung V. Chu, Dylan King, Noah Luntzlara +5
Given a finite set of integers , its sumset is . We examine as a random variable, where , the set of integer…
On Zeckendorf Related Partitions Using the Lucas Sequence
Hung V. Chu, David C. Luo, Steven J. Miller
Zeckendorf proved that every positive integer has a unique partition as a sum of non-consecutive Fibonacci numbers. Similarly, every natural number can be partitioned into a sum of…
On Even Perfect Numbers II
Hung Viet Chu
Let be a prime such that is a Mersenne prime. Let , where and is an odd prime. Continuing the work of Cai et al. and Jiang, w…
A Twist of a Ramanujan Identity
Hung Viet Chu, Lan Khanh Chu
Ramanujan wrote the following identity \begin{align*} \sqrt{2 \left(1 - \frac{1}{3^2}\right) \left(1 - \frac{1}{7^2}\right) \left(1 - \frac{1}{11^2}\right) \left(1 - \frac{1}{19^2}…
Representation of and
Hung Viet Chu
Let be relatively prime. We consider , which arises in the study of the -th cyclotomic polynomial, where are distinct primes. We prove…
When the Nontrivial, Small Divisors of a Natural Number are in Arithmetic Progression
Hung Viet Chu
Iannucci considered the positive divisors of a natural number that do not exceed and found all forms of numbers whose such divisors are in arithmetic progression. In…
On Arithmetic Progressions of Powers in Cyclotomic Polynomials
Hung Viet Chu
We determine necessary conditions for when powers corresponding to positive/negative coefficients of are in arithmetic progression. When for any primes , ou…
