Experimental Number Theory, Part I : Tower Arithmetic
Edinah K. Gnang · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2011
We introduce in this section an Algebraic and Combinatorial approach to the theory of Numbers. The approach rests on the observation that numbers can be identified with familiar combinatorial objects namely rooted trees, which we shall here refer to as towers. The bijection between numbers and towers provides some insights into unexpected connexions between Number theory, combinatorics and discrete probability theory.
