Abstract:
We study integer sequences associated with the cyclic graph
Cr and
the complete graph Kr.
Fourier techniques are used to characterize
the sequences that count walks of length n on both these families of
graphs. In the case of the cyclic graph, we show that these sequences
are associated with an induced colouring of Pascal's triangle. This
extends previous results concerning the Jacobsthal numbers.
