Efficient scalar multiplication in Abelian groups (which is an important operation in public key cryptography) can be performed using digital expansions. Apart from rational integer bases (double-and-add algorithm), imaginary quadratic…
This article deals with redundant digit expansions with an imaginary quadratic algebraic integer with trace $\pm 1$ as base and a minimal norm representatives digit set. For $w\geq 2$ it is shown that the width-$w$ non-adjacent form is not…
This paper explores two techniques on a family of hyperelliptic curves that have been proposed to accelerate computation of scalar multiplication for hyperelliptic curve cryptosystems. In elliptic curve cryptosystems, it is known that…
We study two positional numeration systems which are known for allowing very efficient addition and multiplication of complex numbers. The first one uses the base $\beta = \imath - 1$ and the digit set $\mathcal{D} = \{ 0, \pm 1, \pm \imath…
Recently a new class of continued fraction algorithms, the $(N,\alpha$)-expansions, was introduced for each $N\in\mathbb{N}$, $N\geq 2$ and $\alpha \in (0,\sqrt{N}-1]$. Each of these continued fraction algorithms has only finitely many…
In this paper we consider continued fraction (CF) expansions on intervals different from $[0,1]$. For every $x$ in such interval we find a CF expansion with a finite number of possible digits. Using the natural extension, the density of the…
In this paper we study digit frequencies in the setting of expansions in non-integer bases, and self-affine sets with non-empty interior. Within expansions in non-integer bases we show that if $\beta\in(1,1.787\ldots)$ then every…
A fundamental challenge within the metric theory of continued fractions involves quantifying sets of real numbers, when represented using continued fractions, exhibit partial quotients that grow at specific rates. For any positive function…
We address the problem of determining the Hausdorff dimension of sets consisting of complex irrationals whose complex continued fraction digits satisfy prescribed restrictions and growth conditions. For the Hurwitz continued fraction, we…
We establish sharp bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of sets of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose digits in the $N$-expansion are either uniformly bounded or tend to infinity. For sets with digits bounded by an integer $M \ge N$, we…
The digits of the Pierce expansion satisfy the law of large numbers. It is known that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of exceptions to the law of large numbers is 1. We provide an elementary proof of this fact by adapting Jun Wu's…
By a classical result of Gauss and Kuzmin, the continued fraction expansion of a ``random'' real number contains each digit $a\in\mathbb{N}$ with asymptotic frequency $\log_2(1+1/(a(a+2)))$. We generalize this result in two directions:…
We prove that the sequence of the last nonzero digits of factorials in every integer base $b>2$ is not eventually periodic. We also extend the Adamczewski--Bugeaud criterion, originally formulated for integer base expansions, to Cantor base…
We investigate the distribution of the largest digit for a wide class of infinite parabolic Iterated Function Systems (IFSs) of the unit interval. Due to the recurrence to parabolic (neutral) fixed points, the dimension analysis of these…
The number of positive and negative carries in the addition of two independent random signed digit expansions of given length is analyzed asymptotically for the $(q, d)$-system and the symmetric signed digit expansion. The results include…
Let $(\alpha,\mathcal{N}_{\alpha})$ and $(\beta,\mathcal{N}_{\beta})$ be two canonical number systems for an imaginary quadratic number field $K$ such that $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are multiplicatively independent. We provide an effective lower…
We investigate the Hausdorff dimension of level sets defined by digit growth rates in $\theta$-expansions, a generalization of regular continued fractions. For any $\alpha \geq 0$, we prove that the set \[ E_\theta(\alpha) = \left\{ x \in…
In this paper we study representations of real numbers in a numeral system with the base $a>1$ and alphabet (digits set) $A\equiv\{0,1,...,r\}$, $a-1<r\in N$ given by \[x=\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\alpha_n}{a^n}\equiv…
Understanding the distribution of digits in the expansions of perfect powers in different bases is difficult. Rather than consider the asymptotic digit distributions, we consider the base-10 digits of a restricted sequence of powers of two.…
Let $\beta > 1$ be a real number and $x \in [0,1)$ be an irrational number. Denote by $k_n(x)$ the exact number of partial quotients in the continued fraction expansion of $x$ given by the first $n$ digits in the $\beta$-expansion of $x$…
