Normal number constructions for Cantor series with slowly growing bases

Number Theory 2014-09-19 v1

Abstract

Let Q=(qn)n=1Q=(q_n)_{n=1}^\infty be a sequence of bases with qi2q_i\ge 2. In the case when the qiq_i are slowly growing and satisfy some additional weak conditions, we provide a construction of a number whose QQ-Cantor series expansion is both QQ-normal and QQ-distribution normal. Moreover, this construction will result in a computable number provided we have some additional conditions on the computability of QQ, and from this construction we can provide computable constructions of numbers with atypical normality properties.
