Sets of equations

Here is a second attempt (see edit history for previous version). For each $t\in\mathbb{N}$, let $$P_{i,j,k,t}=\{1_{i,j,k,t},\ldots,n_{i,j,k,t},\ldots,\gamma(i,j,k)_{i,j,k,t}\}$$ (so that for each …

Representing numbers in a non-integer base with few (but possibly negative) nonzero digits

Your proof looks right to me. As a smaller example, a number with a Zeckendorf representation with 7 terms is 609 = 377 + 144 + 55 + 21 + 8 + 3 + 1 (note that 609 = 610 - 1); I believe it is impossibl …

Gamma function versions of combinatorial identites?

We can extend the binomial coefficient $\binom{n}{k}$ to $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$ by defining $\binom{x}{y}=\frac{\Gamma(x+1)}{\Gamma(y+1)\Gamma(x-y+1)}$. Do any the standard binomial coefficient …

How can we realize different combinatorial objects as the dimension of a construction on vec...

Fix a vector space $V$ of dimension $n$ over some field $F$. Here are three commonly seen constructions: its $k$th tensor power, $T^kV$, which has dimension $n^k$ its $k$th exterior power, $\Lambda^ …
