On a two-parameter generalization of Jacobsthal numbers and its graph interpretation

Abstract

In this paper we introduce a two-parameter generalization of the classical Jacobsthal numbers ((s, p)-Jacobsthal numbers). We present some properties of the presented sequence, among others Binet’s formula, Cassini’s identity, the generating function. Moreover, we give a graph interpretation of (s, p)-Jacobsthal numbers, related to independence in graphs.

For every predual X of l1 such that the standard basis in l1 is weak* convergent, we give explicit models of all Banach spaces Y for which the Banach–Mazur distance d(X, Y ) = 1. As a by-product of our considerations, we...

The density Turan problem for 3-uniform linear hypertrees. An efficient testing algorithm

Let T = (V, E) be a 3-uniform linear hypertree. We consider a blow-up hypergraph B[T ]. We are interested in the following problem. We have to decide whether there exists a blow-up hypergraph B[T ] of the hypertree T , w...
