The authors have recently obtained a lower bound of the Hausdorff dimension of the sets of vectors $(x_1, \ldots, x_d)\in [0,1)^d$ with large Weyl sums, namely of vectors for which $$ \left| \sum_{n=1}^{N}\exp(2\pi i (x_1 n+\ldots +x_d…

Pak and Panova recently proved that the $q$-binomial coefficient ${m+n \choose m}_q$ is a strictly unimodal polynomial in $q$ for $m,n \geq 8$, via the representation theory of the symmetric group. We give a direct combinatorial proof of…

Let $\beta_1,\beta_2>1$ and $T_i(x,y) = \bigl(\frac{x+i}{\beta_1}, \frac{y+i}{\beta_2}\bigr),\ i\in\{\pm1\}$. Let $A := A_{\beta_1, \beta_2}$ be the unique compact set satisfying $A = T_{1}(A) \cup T_{-1}(A)$. In this paper we give a…

Let $q\in(1,2)$; it is known that each $x\in[0,1/(q-1)]$ has an expansion of the form $x=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_nq^{-n}$ with $a_n\in\{0,1\}$. It was shown in \cite{EJK} that if $q<(\sqrt5+1)/2$, then each $x\in(0,1/(q-1))$ has a continuum of…

We study the set of the representable numbers in base $q=pe^{i\frac{2\pi}{n}}$ with $\rho>1$ and $n\in \mathbb N$ and with digits in a arbitrary finite real alphabet $A$. We give a geometrical description of the convex hull of the…

A space $Y$ is called an extension of a space $X$ if $Y$ contains $X$ as a dense subspace. An extension $Y$ of $X$ is called a one-point extension of $X$ if $Y\backslash X$ is a singleton. P. Alexandroff proved that any locally compact…

Following in the footsteps of P. Erd\H{o}s and A. R\'enyi we compute the Hausdorff dimension of sets of numbers whose digits with respect to their $Q$-Cantor series expansions satisfy various statistical properties. In particular, we…

For a given positive integer $m$, let $A=\set{0,1,...,m}$ and $q \in (m,m+1)$. A sequence $(c_i)=c_1c_2 ...$ consisting of elements in $A$ is called an expansion of $x$ if $\sum_{i=1}^{\infty} c_i q^{-i}=x$. It is known that almost every…

Motivated by investigations of the tridiagonal pairs of linear transformations, we introduce the augmented tridiagonal algebra ${\mathcal T}_q$. This is an infinite-dimensional associative ${\mathbb C}$-algebra with 1. We classify the…

We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the set $\mathbf{x}\in [0,1)^d$, such that $$ \left|\sum_{n=1}^N \exp\left(2 \pi i\left(x_1n+\ldots+x_d n^d\right)\right) \right|\ge c N^{1/2} $$ holds for infinitely many natural numbers $N$, is at…

In this paper we answer several questions raised by Sidorov on the set $\mathcal B_2$ of bases in which there exist numbers with exactly two expansions. In particular, we prove that the set $\mathcal B_2$ is closed, and it contains both…

Let Q be an infinite set of positive integers. Denote by W_{\tau, n}(Q) (resp. W_{\tau, n}) the set of points in dimension n simultaneously \tau--approximable by infinitely many rationals with denominators in Q (resp. in N*). A non--trivial…

This paper studies properties of q-Jacobi polynomials and their duals by means of operators of the discrete series representations for the quantum algebra U_q(su_{1,1}). Spectrum and eigenfunctions of these operators are found explicitly.…

This paper concerns the expansion of the real ordered additive group by a predicate for a subset of $[0,1]$ whose base-$r$ representations are recognized by a B\"uchi automaton. In the case that this predicate is closed, a dichotomy is…

Given a real number $x>0$, we determine $q_s(x):=\inf\mathscr{U}(x)$, where $\mathscr{U}(x)$ is the set of all bases $q\in(1,2]$ for which $x$ has a unique expansion of $0$'s and $1$'s. We give an explicit description of $q_s(x)$ for…

We prove that for any nonlinear $f \in C^{1,\alpha}([0,1])$, the union of lines covering its graph has a Hausdorff dimension of at least $1+\alpha$, and this dimension bound is sharp. We then apply these geometric results to mathematical…

For a real number $q\in(1,2)$ and $x\in[0,1/(q-1)]$, the infinite sequence $(d_i)$ is called a \emph{$q$-expansion} of $x$ if $$ x=\sum_{i=1}^\infty\frac{d_i}{q^i},\quad d_i\in\{0,1\}\quad\textrm{for all}~ i\ge 1. $$ For $m=1, 2, \cdots$ or…

Let $w=(w_1, w_2)$ be a pair of positive real numbers with $w_1+w_2=1$ and $w_1\ge w_2$. We show that the set of $w$-weighted singular vectors in $\mathbb R^2$ has Hausdorff dimension $2- \frac{1}{1+w_1}$. This extends the previous work of…

We analyse the dimension spectrum of continued fractions expansions with coefficients restricted to infinite subsets of $ \mathbb{N}$. We prove that the set of powers $P_q=\{q^n\colon n\in \mathbb{N}\}$ has full dimension spectrum for each…

The convolution of indicators of two conjugacy classes on the symmetric group S_q is usually a complicated linear combination of indicators of many conjugacy classes. Similarly, a product of the moments of the Jucys--Murphy element involves…
