    Enumeration of kk-Fibonacci Paths using Infinite Weighted Automata

    Full text link
    In this paper, we introduce a new family of generalized colored Motzkin paths, where horizontal steps are colored by means of Fk,lF_{k,l} colors, where Fk,lF_{k,l} is the llth kk-Fibonacci number. We study the enumeration of this family according to the length. For this, we use infinite weighted automata.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1310.244

    Non-conservation of dimension in divergence-free solutions of passive and active scalar systems

    Full text link
    For any h(1,2]h\in(1,2], we give an explicit construction of a compactly supported, uniformly continuous, and (weakly) divergence-free velocity field in R2\mathbb{R}^2 that weakly advects a measure whose support is initially the origin but for positive times has Hausdorff dimension hh. These velocities are uniformly continuous in space-time and compactly supported, locally Lipschitz except at one point and satisfy the conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a Regular Lagrangian Flow in the sense of Di Perna and Lions theory. We then construct active scalar systems in R2\mathbb{R}^2 and R3\mathbb{R}^3 with measure-valued solutions whose initial support has co-dimension 2 but such that at positive times it only has co-dimension 1. The associated velocities are divergence free, compactly supported, continuous, and sufficiently regular to admit unique Regular Lagrangian Flows. This is in part motivated by the investigation of dimension conservation for the support of measure-valued solutions to active scalar systems. This question occurs in the study of vortex filaments in the three-dimensional Euler equations.Comment: 32 pages, 3 figures.
