 Unveiling the Mysteries of Sequences: A Dive into A048720, A065621, and A379129/A379130

In the realm of mathematics, fascinating sequences emerge, each with unique properties and applications. Today, we'll delve into three such sequences: A048720, A065621, and the intriguing pair A379129 and A379130.

This exploration is inspired by a recent article (link: https://news.google.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?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US%3Aen), which piqued our curiosity about these specific sequences.

A Glimpse into the Sequences:

  • A048720: This sequence involves converting binary representations of two numbers, multiplying them as polynomials (considering the digits as coefficients), and taking the modulo 2 result.
  • A065621: Here, we perform a bitwise XOR operation between n-1 and 2n-1.
  • A379129 and A379130: These sequences delve deeper, utilizing concepts like sum of divisors, greatest common divisor (GCD), and potentially building upon A048720 and A065621. However, the details of their calculations differ slightly (refer to the provided link for the original PARI/GP code).

Why are these sequences interesting?

While the specific applications of these sequences might not be readily apparent, their existence and properties contribute to the vast tapestry of mathematical knowledge. Studying them can lead to new discoveries, connections between seemingly disparate areas of mathematics, and even potential applications in cryptography or computer science.
