We provide upper and lower bounds on the degree of the numerator of $r(k)$ and show the denominator of $r(n)$ can be read from annihilators of $F(k)$. This illustration provides the so-called rational reductions which can be used to generate new multi-sum equalities and congruences from known ones.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-01-29T04:47:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "holonomic sequence", "rational reductions", "multi-sum equalities", "characterize rational functions", "lower bounds" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
