Examples#

Binary sum of digits#

The binary sum of digits \(S(n)\) of a nonnegative integer \(n\) satisfies \(S(2n) = S(n)\) and \(S(2n+1) = S(n) + 1\). We model this by the following:

sage: Seq2 = RegularSequenceRing(2, ZZ)
sage: S = Seq2((Matrix([[1, 0], [0, 1]]), Matrix([[1, 0], [1, 1]])),
....:          left=vector([0, 1]), right=vector([1, 0]))
sage: S
2-regular sequence 0, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 2, 3, 1, 2, ...
sage: all(S[n] == sum(n.digits(2)) for n in srange(10))
True
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> Seq2 = RegularSequenceRing(Integer(2), ZZ)
>>> S = Seq2((Matrix([[Integer(1), Integer(0)], [Integer(0), Integer(1)]]), Matrix([[Integer(1), Integer(0)], [Integer(1), Integer(1)]])),
...          left=vector([Integer(0), Integer(1)]), right=vector([Integer(1), Integer(0)]))
>>> S
2-regular sequence 0, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 2, 3, 1, 2, ...
>>> all(S[n] == sum(n.digits(Integer(2))) for n in srange(Integer(10)))
True

Number of odd entries in Pascal’s triangle#

Let us consider the number of odd entries in the first \(n\) rows of Pascals’s triangle:

sage: @cached_function
....: def u(n):
....:     if n <= 1:
....:         return n
....:     return 2 * u(n // 2) + u((n+1) // 2)
sage: tuple(u(n) for n in srange(10))
(0, 1, 3, 5, 9, 11, 15, 19, 27, 29)
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> @cached_function
... def u(n):
...     if n <= Integer(1):
...         return n
...     return Integer(2) * u(n // Integer(2)) + u((n+Integer(1)) // Integer(2))
>>> tuple(u(n) for n in srange(Integer(10)))
(0, 1, 3, 5, 9, 11, 15, 19, 27, 29)

There is a \(2\)-regular sequence describing the numbers above as well:

sage: U = Seq2((Matrix([[3, 0], [2, 1]]), Matrix([[2, 1], [0, 3]])),
....:          left=vector([1, 0]), right=vector([0, 1]))
sage: all(U[n] == u(n) for n in srange(30))
True
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> U = Seq2((Matrix([[Integer(3), Integer(0)], [Integer(2), Integer(1)]]), Matrix([[Integer(2), Integer(1)], [Integer(0), Integer(3)]])),
...          left=vector([Integer(1), Integer(0)]), right=vector([Integer(0), Integer(1)]))
>>> all(U[n] == u(n) for n in srange(Integer(30)))
True

Classes and Methods#

exception sage.combinat.regular_sequence.DegeneratedSequenceError[source]#

Bases: RuntimeError

Exception raised if a degenerated sequence (see is_degenerated()) is detected.

EXAMPLES:

sage: Seq2 = RegularSequenceRing(2, ZZ)
sage: Seq2((Matrix([2]), Matrix([3])), vector([1]), vector([1]))
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
DegeneratedSequenceError: degenerated sequence: mu[0]*right != right.
Using such a sequence might lead to wrong results.
You can use 'allow_degenerated_sequence=True' followed
by a call of method .regenerated() for correcting this.

class sage.combinat.regular_sequence.RecurrenceParser(k, coefficient_ring)[source]#

Bases: object

A parser for recurrence relations that allow the construction of a \(k\)-linear representation for the sequence satisfying these recurrence relations.

This is used by RegularSequenceRing.from_recurrence() to construct a RegularSequence.

ind(M, m, ll, uu)[source]#

Determine the index operator corresponding to the recursive sequence as defined in [HKL2022].

INPUT:

  • M, m – parameters of the recursive sequences, see [HKL2022], Definition 3.1

  • ll, uu – parameters of the resulting linear representation, see [HKL2022], Theorem A

OUTPUT:

A dictionary which maps both row numbers to subsequence parameters and vice versa, i.e.,

  • ind[i] – a pair (j, d) representing the sequence \(x(k^j n + d)\) in the \(i\)-th component (0-based) of the resulting linear representation,

  • ind[(j, d)] – the (0-based) row number of the sequence \(x(k^j n + d)\) in the linear representation.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.combinat.regular_sequence import RecurrenceParser
sage: RP = RecurrenceParser(2, ZZ)

INPUT:

  • recurrence_rules – a namedtuple generated by parameters()

  • rem – an integer between 0 and k - 1

parameters(M, m, coeffs, initial_values, offset=0, inhomogeneities={})[source]#

Determine parameters from recurrence relations as admissible in RegularSequenceRing.from_recurrence().

INPUT:

All parameters are explained in the high-level method RegularSequenceRing.from_recurrence().

OUTPUT: a namedtuple recurrence_rules consisting of

  • M, m, l, u, offset – parameters of the recursive sequences, see [HKL2022], Definition 3.1

  • ll, uu, n1, dim – parameters and dimension of the resulting linear representation, see [HKL2022], Theorem A

  • coeffs – a dictionary mapping (r, j) to the coefficients \(c_{r, j}\) as given in [HKL2022], Equation (3.1). If coeffs[(r, j)] is not given for some r and j, then it is assumed to be zero.

  • initial_values – a dictionary mapping integers n to the n-th value of the sequence

  • inhomogeneities – a dictionary mapping integers r to the inhomogeneity \(g_r\) as given in [HKL2022], Corollary D.

Bases: RecognizableSeries

A \(k\)-regular sequence.

INPUT:

  • parent – an instance of RegularSequenceRing

  • mu – a family of square matrices, all of which have the same dimension. The indices of this family are \(0,...,k-1\). mu may be a list or tuple of cardinality \(k\) as well. See also mu().

  • left – (default: None) a vector. When evaluating the sequence, this vector is multiplied from the left to the matrix product. If None, then this multiplication is skipped.

  • right – (default: None) a vector. When evaluating the sequence, this vector is multiplied from the right to the matrix product. If None, then this multiplication is skipped.

When created via the parent RegularSequenceRing, then the following option is available.

  • allow_degenerated_sequence – (default: False) a boolean. If set, then there will be no check if the input is a degenerated sequence (see is_degenerated()). Otherwise the input is checked and a DegeneratedSequenceError is raised if such a sequence is detected.

ALGORITHM:

See pdf attached to github pull request #35894 which contains a draft describing the details of the used algorithm.

EXAMPLES:

sage: Seq2 = RegularSequenceRing(2, ZZ)
sage: E = Seq2((Matrix([[0, 1], [0, 1]]), Matrix([[0, 0], [0, 1]])),
....:          vector([1, 0]), vector([1, 1]))
sage: E
2-regular sequence 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, ...
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> Seq2 = RegularSequenceRing(Integer(2), ZZ)
>>> E = Seq2((Matrix([[Integer(0), Integer(1)], [Integer(0), Integer(1)]]), Matrix([[Integer(0), Integer(0)], [Integer(0), Integer(1)]])),
...          vector([Integer(1), Integer(0)]), vector([Integer(1), Integer(1)]))
>>> E
2-regular sequence 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, ...

We can build the convolution (in the sense of power-series) of \(E\) by itself via:

sage: E.convolution(E)
2-regular sequence 1, 0, 2, 0, 3, 0, 4, 0, 5, 0, ...
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> E.convolution(E)
2-regular sequence 1, 0, 2, 0, 3, 0, 4, 0, 5, 0, ...

This is the same as using multiplication operator:

sage: E * E
2-regular sequence 1, 0, 2, 0, 3, 0, 4, 0, 5, 0, ...
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> E * E
2-regular sequence 1, 0, 2, 0, 3, 0, 4, 0, 5, 0, ...

Building partial_sums() can also be seen as a convolution:

sage: o = Seq2.one_hadamard()
sage: E * o
2-regular sequence 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, ...
sage: E * o == E.partial_sums(include_n=True)
True
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> o = Seq2.one_hadamard()
>>> E * o
2-regular sequence 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, ...

partial_sums(*args, **kwds)[source]#

Return the sequence of partial sums of this \(k\)-regular sequence. That is, the \(n\)-th entry of the result is the sum of the first \(n\) entries in the original sequence.

INPUT:

  • include_n – (default: False) a boolean. If set, then the \(n\)-th entry of the result is the sum of the entries up to index \(n\) (included).

  • minimize – (default: None) a boolean or None. If True, then minimized() is called after the operation, if False, then not. If this argument is None, then the default specified by the parent’s minimize_results is used.

OUTPUT:

The following linear representation of \(S\) is chosen badly (is degenerated, see is_degenerated()), as \(\mu(0)\) applied on \(\mathit{right}\) does not equal \(\mathit{right}\):

sage: S = Seq2((Matrix([2]), Matrix([3])), vector([1]), vector([1]),
....:          allow_degenerated_sequence=True)
sage: S
2-regular sequence 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 18, 27, 24, 36, ...

>>> S
2-regular sequence 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 18, 27, 24, 36, ...

Therefore, building partial sums produces a wrong result:

>>> H

transposed(allow_degenerated_sequence=False)[source]#

Return the transposed sequence.

INPUT:

  • allow_degenerated_sequence – (default: False) a boolean. If set, then there will be no check if the transposed sequence is a degenerated sequence (see is_degenerated()). Otherwise the transposed sequence is checked and a DegeneratedSequenceError is raised if such a sequence is detected.

2-regular sequence 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 6, 17, ...

INPUT:

Positional arguments:

If the recurrence relations are represented by symbolic equations, then the following arguments are required:

  • equations – A list of equations where the elements have either the form

    • \(f(k^M n + r) = c_{r,l} f(k^m n + l) + c_{r,l + 1} f(k^m n + l + 1) + ... + c_{r,u} f(k^m n + u)\) for some integers \(0 \leq r < k^M\), \(M > m \geq 0\) and \(l \leq u\), and some coefficients \(c_{r,j}\) from the (semi)ring coefficients of the corresponding RegularSequenceRing, valid for all integers \(n \geq \text{offset}\) for some integer \(\text{offset} \geq \max(-l/k^m, 0)\) (default: 0), and there is an equation of this form (with the same parameters \(M\) and \(m\)) for all \(r\)

    or the form

    • f(k) == t for some integer k and some t from the (semi)ring coefficient_ring.

    The recurrence relations above uniquely determine a \(k\)-regular sequence; see [HKL2022] for further information.

  • function – symbolic function f occurring in the equations

  • var – symbolic variable (n in the above description of equations)

The following second representation of the recurrence relations is particularly useful for cases where coefficient_ring is not compatible with sage.symbolic.ring.SymbolicRing. Then the following arguments are required:

  • M – parameter of the recursive sequences, see [HKL2022], Definition 3.1, as well as in the description of equations above

  • m – parameter of the recursive sequences, see [HKL2022], Definition 3.1, as well as in the description of equations above

  • coeffs – a dictionary where coeffs[(r, j)] is the coefficient \(c_{r,j}\) as given in the description of equations above. If coeffs[(r, j)] is not given for some r and j, then it is assumed to be zero.

  • initial_values – a dictionary mapping integers n to the n-th value of the sequence

Optional keyword-only argument:

  • offset – (default: 0) an integer. See explanation of equations above.

  • inhomogeneities – (default: {}) a dictionary mapping integers r to the inhomogeneity \(g_r\) as given in [HKL2022], Corollary D. All inhomogeneities have to be regular sequences from self or elements of coefficient_ring.

OUTPUT: a RegularSequence

guess(f, n_verify=100, max_exponent=10, sequence=None)[source]#

Guess a \(k\)-regular sequence whose first terms coincide with \((f(n))_{n\geq0}\).

INPUT:

  • f – a function (callable) which determines the sequence. It takes nonnegative integers as an input

  • n_verify – (default: 100) a positive integer. The resulting \(k\)-regular sequence coincides with \(f\) on the first n_verify terms.

  • max_exponent – (default: 10) a positive integer specifying the maximum exponent of \(k\) which is tried when guessing the sequence, i.e., relations between \(f(k^t n+r)\) are used for \(0\le t\le \mathtt{max\_exponent}\) and \(0\le r < k^j\)

  • sequence – (default: None) a \(k\)-regular sequence used for bootstrapping the guessing by adding information of the linear representation of sequence to the guessed representation

OUTPUT:

A RegularSequence

ALGORITHM:

For the purposes of this description, the right vector valued sequence associated with a regular sequence consists of the corresponding matrix product multiplied by the right vector, but without the left vector of the regular sequence.

The algorithm maintains a right vector valued sequence consisting of the right vector valued sequence of the argument sequence (replaced by an empty tuple if sequence is None) plus several components of the shape \(m \mapsto f(k^t\cdot m +r)\) for suitable t and r.

Implicitly, the algorithm also maintains a \(d \times n_\mathrm{verify}\) matrix A (where d is the dimension of the right vector valued sequence) whose columns are the current right vector valued sequence evaluated at the non-negative integers less than \(n_\mathrm{verify}\) and ensures that this matrix has full row rank.

The following linear representation of \(S\) is chosen badly (is degenerated, see is_degenerated()), as \(\mu(0)\) applied on \(\mathit{right}\) does not equal \(\mathit{right}\):

sage: S = Seq2((Matrix([2]), Matrix([3])), vector([1]), vector([1]),

However, we can guess() a \(2\)-regular sequence of dimension \(2\):

sage: G = Seq2.guess(lambda n: S[n])

sage: G == S.regenerated()
