... The function is one-to-one because no two function values of the form −2n (n ≤ 0) can be equal, no two function values of the form 2n − 1 (n > 0) can be equal, and no function value of the form 2n (which is an even integer) can equal a function value of the form 2n − 1 (which is an odd integer). The ...

That is, we study integer decompositions on a sequence of terms in which same sign summands are s apart in index and opposite sign summands are d apart in index. We call such representati ...

Functional decomposition
Functional decomposition refers broadly to the process of resolving a functional relationship into its constituent parts in such a way that the original function can be reconstructed (i.e., recomposed) from those parts by function composition. In general, this process of decomposition is undertaken either for the purpose of gaining insight into the identity of the constituent components (which may reflect individual physical processes of interest, for example), or for the purpose of obtaining a compressed representation of the global function, a task which is feasible only when the constituent processes possess a certain level of modularity (i.e., independence or non-interaction). Interactions between the components are critical to the function of the collection. All interactions may not be observable, but possibly deduced through repetitive perception, synthesis, validation and verification of composite behavior.
