On Some (Pseudo) Involutions in the Riordan Group
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we address a question posed by L. Shapiro regarding algebraic and/or combinatorial characterizations of the elements of order 2 in the Riordan group. We present two classes of combinatorial matrices having pseudo-order 2. In one class, we find generalizations of Pascal’s triangle and use some special cases to discover and prove interesting identities. In the other class, we find generalizations of Nkwanta’s RNA triangle and show that they are pseudo-involutions.

Riordan group involutions and the∆-sequence
Several important combinatorial arrays, after inserting some minus signs, turn out to be involutions when considered as lower triangular matrices. Among these are the Pascal, RNA, and directed animal matrices. These examples and many others are in the Bell subgroup of the Riordan group. We characterize all such pseudo-involutions by means of a single sequence called the ∆-sequence. Finally we c...
متن کاملSelf - Inverse Sheffer Sequences and Riordan
In this short note we focus on self-inverse Sheffer sequences and involutions in the Riordan group. We translate the results of Brown and Kuczma on self-inverse sequences of Sheffer polynomials to describe all involutions in the Riordan group.
متن کاملRiordan group approaches in matrix factorizations
In this paper, we consider an arbitrary binary polynomial sequence {A_n} and then give a lower triangular matrix representation of this sequence. As main result, we obtain a factorization of the innite generalized Pascal matrix in terms of this new matrix, using a Riordan group approach. Further some interesting results and applications are derived.
متن کاملRigidity of pseudo-free group actions on contractible manifolds
In this article, we announce joint work with Frank Connolly and Jim Davis [6]. This follows an earlier case study of pseudo-free involutions on the n-torus carried out in [5]. The author is grateful to the organizers of the RIMS conferences where these results were disseminated in Asia: Transformation Groups and Surgery Theory (Masayuki Yamasaki, August 2010), Transformation Groups and Combinat...
متن کامل(∗)-groups and pseudo-bad groups
We give an example of an infinite simple Frobenius group G without involutions, with a trivial kernel and a nilpotent complement. Nevertheless, this group is not ωstable (not even superstable), this is the ”only” property missing in order to be a counterexample to the Cherlin-Zil’ber Conjecture which says that simple ωstable groups are algebraic groups.
