cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A091255 Square array computed from gcd(P(x),P(y)) where P(x) and P(y) are polynomials with coefficients in {0,1} given by the binary expansions of x and y, and the polynomial calculation is done over GF(2), with the result converted back to a binary number, and then expressed in decimal. Array is symmetric, and is read by falling antidiagonals.

Array is read by antidiagonals, with (x,y) = (1,1), (1,2), (2,1), (1,3), (2,2), (3,1), ...
Analogous to A003989.
"Coded in binary" means that a polynomial a(n)*X^n+...+a(0)*X^0 over GF(2) is represented by the binary number a(n)*2^n+...+a(0)*2^0 in Z (where a(k)=0 or 1).

3, which is "11" in binary, encodes polynomial X + 1, while 7 ("111" in binary) encodes polynomial X^2 + X + 1, whereas 9 ("1001" in binary), encodes polynomial X^3 + 1. Now (X + 1)(X^2 + X + 1) = (X^3 + 1) when the polynomials are multiplied over GF(2), or equally, when multiplication of integers 3 and 7 is done as a carryless base-2 product (A048720(3,7) = 9). Thus it follows that A(3,9) = A(9,3) = 3 and A(7,9) = A(9,7) = 7.
Furthermore, 5 ("101" in binary) encodes polynomial X^2 + 1 which is equal to (X + 1)(X + 1) in GF(2)[X], thus A(5,9) = A(9,5) = 3, as the irreducible polynomial (X + 1) is the only common factor for polynomials X^2 + 1 and X^3 + 1.

Formula

A(x,y) = A(y,x) = A(x, A003987(x,y)) = A(A003987(x,y), y), where A003987 gives the bitwise-XOR of its two arguments. - Antti Karttunen, Sep 28 2019
