Morphic Words and Nested Recurrence Relations

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We explore a family of nested recurrence relations with arbitrary levels of nesting, which have an interpretation in terms of fixed points of morphisms over a countably infinite alphabet. Recurrences in this family are related to a number of well-known sequences, including Hofstadter's G sequence and the Conolly and Tanny sequences. For a recurrence a(n) in this family with only finitely terms, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the limit a(n)/n to exist.
