On multiple sums of products of Lucas numbers.
Two linear numeration systems, with characteristic polynomial equal to the minimal polynomial of two Pisot numbers and respectively, such that and are multiplicatively dependent, are considered. It is shown that the conversion between one system and the other one is computable by a finite automaton. We also define a sequence of integers which is equal to the number of periodic points of a sofic dynamical system associated with some Parry number.

We find complete sets of generating relations between the elements [r] = rⁿ - r for and for n = 3. One of these relations is the n-derivation property [rs] = rⁿ[s] + s[r], r,s ∈ R.
For a positive integer n, let σ(n) denote the sum of the positive divisors of n. Let d be a proper divisor of n. We call n a near-perfect number if σ(n) = 2n + d, and a deficient-perfect number if σ(n) = 2n - d. We show that there is no odd near-perfect number with three distinct prime divisors and determine all deficient-perfect numbers with at most two distinct prime factors.
For a positive integer n, let σ(n) denote the sum of the positive divisors of n. We call n a near-perfect number if σ(n) = 2n + d where d is a proper divisor of n. We show that the only odd near-perfect number with four distinct prime divisors is 3⁴·7²·11²·19².
