Diophantine equations with linear recurrences An overview of some recent progress

Umberto Zannier (2005)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

We shall discuss some known problems concerning the arithmetic of linear recurrent sequences. After recalling briefly some longstanding questions and solutions concerning zeros, we shall focus on recent progress on the so-called “quotient problem” (resp. " d -th root problem"), which in short asks whether the integrality of the values of the quotient (resp. d -th root) of two (resp. one) linear recurrences implies that this quotient (resp. d -th root) is itself a recurrence. We shall also...

On the Various Bisection Methods Derived from Vincent’s Theorem

Akritas, Alkiviadis, Strzeboński, Adam, Vigklas, Panagiotis (2008)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

In 2000 A. Alesina and M. Galuzzi presented Vincent’s theorem “from a modern point of view” along with two new bisection methods derived from it, B and C. Their profound understanding of Vincent’s theorem is responsible for simplicity — the characteristic property of these two methods. In this paper we compare the performance of these two new bisection methods — i.e. the time they take, as well as the number of intervals they examine in order to isolate the real roots of polynomials...
