Abstract

This paper presents an innovative approach to the study of recurrent sequences by introducing the concept of arithmetic pseudo-operators. Unlike conventional operators, these pseudo-operators are pure complex numbers with specific structural properties, allowing for unprecedented operational reformulations. Represented by the symbols ``$+$'', ``$/$'' (slash), ``$\setminus$'' (aslash), ``$\bot$'', ``$\top$'', and ``$\dashv$'', these operators correspond to rotations in the unit circle of the complex plane and generalize fundamental operations, as seen in the identities ``$1 / 1 \setminus 1 = 0$'' and ``$1 \bot 1 \top 1 \dashv 1 = 0$'', which exhibit behavior analogous to conventional subtraction ``$1 - 1 = 0$''. Based on this structure, we reformulate Binet's equations for the Fibonacci and Tribonacci sequences and outline the path for their generalization to the Tetranacci sequence \cite{koshy}. This new perspective not only enhances the understanding of higher-order recurrences but also suggests potential applications in discrete mathematics and computational algebra, expanding the scope of classical algebraic operations.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
