A Note on the Ramanujan Machine
Eric Brier, David Naccache, Ofer Yifrach-Stav
The Ramanujan Machine project detects new expressions related to constants of interest, such as function values, and algebraic numbers (to name a few). In particular the pr…
The Multiplicative Persistence Conjecture Is True for Odd Targets
Eric Brier, Christophe Clavier, Linda Gutsche +1
In 1973, Neil Sloane published a very short paper introducing an intriguing problem: Pick a decimal integer and multiply all its digits by each other. Repeat the process until…
Near-Optimal Pool Testing under Urgency Constraints
Éric Brier, Megi Dervishi, Rémi Géraud-Stewart +2
Detection of rare traits or diseases in a large population is challenging. Pool testing allows covering larger swathes of population at a reduced cost, while simplifying logistics.…
A Fractional Conjecture
Éric Brier, Rémi Géraud-Stewart, David Naccache
In this paper we introduce and discuss the sequence of \emph{real numbers} defined as and where \begin{equation*} Δ(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{…
The Look-and-Say The Biggest Sequence Eventually Cycles
Éric Brier, Rémi Géraud-Stewart, David Naccache +2
In this paper we consider a variant of Conway's sequence (OEIS A005150, A006715) defined as follows: the next term in the sequence is obtained by considering contiguous runs of dig…
Stuttering Conway Sequences Are Still Conway Sequences
Éric Brier, Rémi Géraud-Stewart, David Naccache +2
A look-and-say sequence is obtained iteratively by reading off the digits of the current value, grouping identical digits together: starting with 1, the sequence reads: 1, 11, 21,…
