Re: Pascal's square
Hi everyone;
I have carefully studied all Pascal's squares and in some of them I found some interesting successions. In this square, that MathIsFun proposed:
1 1 1 1
1 3 5 7
1 5 13 25
1 7 25 63
The sum of the numbers of every diagonal give Pell numbers (A000129 of OEIS).
1=1
1+1=2
1+3+1=5
1+5+5+1=12
1+7+13+7+1=29
Regarding my Pascal's square:
1 1 2 4 8
1 1 2 4 8
2 2 4 8 16
4 4 8 16 32
8 8 16 32 64
16 16 32 64 128
The sum of the numbers of every diagonal give numbers of 1's in all compositons of n+1 (A045623 of OEIS).
Winter is coming.

Re: Pascal's square
Hi Mpmath;
For the Pell number square did you try generating a bigger square and checking that?
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.

Re: Pascal's square
Hi;
Yes, I try. Numbers coincide. I notice right now that MathIsFun square is square array of Delannoy numbers (A008288 of OEIS).

Okay, I know the Delannoy numbers. Thanks for spotting that.

Re: Pascal's square
At least we find an alternative system to obtain square array of Delannoy numbers!

Re: Pascal's square
Yes, I am looking at that right now. It could be of some importance.

Ok. Let me know if you find something interesting.

Re: Pascal's square
Well, isn't it the same way Delannoy numbers are made, only with graphical representation?

Re: Pascal's square
You are correct in that is how they are generated in a lattice. So therefore of course that works by definition.

Hi bobbym;
So what are your conclusions?

Re: Pascal's square
Hi;
Not a whole lot, but that MIF square does generate Delannoy numbers.
Now on to the next square...

2 2 4 8 16

8 8 16 32 64

The sum of the numbers of every diagonal give numbers of 1's in all compositons of n+1.
I see A152195 and A177992 but they are not the same as your square.
Does seem to be generating the compositions. That is interesting...

Sorry, but I don't understand what you mean when you say "Does seem to be generating the compositions.

He think it does generate the compositions you mentioned.

Re: Pascal's square
Hi;
As far as I have gone it does. That does not mean the pattern will continue. To show that it does I need a mathematical proof. So, all I can say right now is that it seems to. I can not be more definite than that.

Re: Pascal's square
Hi;
Still, I like the way you look for patterns in numbers. This type of empirical research although not rigorous enough for mathematical proof is the way discoveries are often made.

In oeis, there is a formula with tthat sequence that matches with a formula for the diagonal sum of the square, so I would say that that is proof enough...

Matches? In what way? You have a formula for the diagonal sum of that square?
