Given $\beta\in\mathbb{Z}[i]$ with $|\beta|>1$ and a finite set $D\subset\mathbb{Q}(i)$, let \[K_{\beta, D}=\left\{\sum_{j=1}^{\infty}\frac{d_j}{\beta^j}: d_j\in D, \forall j\geq 1\right\}.\] Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a finite set of…
For a fixed $\theta^2=1/m$, $m \in \mathbb{N}_+$, let $x \in [0, \theta)$ and $[a_1(x) \theta, a_2(x) \theta, \ldots]$ be the $\theta$-expansion of $x$. Our first goal is to extend for $\theta$-expansions the results of Jarnik \cite{J-1928}…
Let $\lambda(n)$ denote the exponent of the multiplicative group modulo $n$. We show that when $q$ is odd, each coprime residue class modulo $q$ is hit equally often by $\lambda(n)$ as $n$ varies. Under the stronger assumption that…
I. J. Good (1941) showed that the set of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose partial quotients $a_n$ tend to infinity is of Hausdorff dimension $1/2$. A number of related results impose restrictions of the type $a_n\in B$ or $a_n\geq f(n)$,…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of order $q$. In this paper, we study the distribution of rectangles in a given set in $\mathbb{F}_q^2$. More precisely, for any $0<\delta\le 1$, we prove that there exists an integer $q_0=q_0(\delta)$…
By a classical result of Weyl, for any increasing sequence $(n_k)_{k \geq 1}$ of integers the sequence of fractional parts $(\{n_k x\})_{k \geq 1}$ is uniformly distributed modulo 1 for almost all $x \in [0,1]$. Except for a few special…
The theory of uniform approximation of real numbers motivates the study of products of consecutive partial quotients in regular continued fractions. For any non-decreasing positive function $\varphi:\mathbb{N}\to [2,\infty)$, we determine…
It was discovered some years ago that there exist non-integer real numbers $q>1$ for which only one sequence $(c_i)$ of integers $c_i \in [0,q)$ satisfies the equality $\sum_{i=1}^\infty c_iq^{-i}=1$. The set of such "univoque numbers" has…
In a recent paper, Baker and Kong have studied the Hausdorff dimension of the intersection of Cantor sets with their translations. We extend their results to more general Cantor sets. The proofs rely on the frequencies of digits in unique…
We show that for any two homogeneous Cantor sets with sum of Hausdorff dimensions that exceeds 1, one can create an interval in the sumset by applying arbitrary small perturbations (without leaving the class of homogeneous Cantor sets). In…
For $\lambda\in(0,1/2]$ let $K_\lambda \subset\mathbb{R}$ be a self-similar set generated by the iterated function system $\{\lambda x, \lambda x+1-\lambda\}$. Given $x\in(0,1/2)$, let $\Lambda(x)$ be the set of $\lambda\in(0,1/2]$ such…
A number of observations are made on Hofstadter's integer sequence defined by Q(n)= Q(n-Q(n-1))+Q(n-Q(n-2)), for n > 2, and Q(1)=Q(2)=1. On short scales the sequence looks chaotic. It turns out, however, that the Q(n) can be grouped into a…
We employ an algebraic procedure based on quantum mechanics to propose a `quantum number theory' (QNT) as a possible extension of the `classical number theory'. We built our QNT by defining pure quantum number operators ($q$-numbers) of a…
In the present paper we construct normal numbers in base $q$ by concatenating $q$-ary expansions of pseudo polynomials evaluated at the primes. This extends a recent result by Tichy and the author.
We study families $\Phi$ of coverings which are faithful for the Hausdorff dimension calculation on a given set $E$ (i. e., special relatively narrow families of coverings leading to the classical Hausdorff dimension of an arbitrary subset…
Let $\{s_n\}$ and $\{t_n\}$ be two sequences of positive real numbers. Under some mild conditions on $\{s_n\}$ and $\{t_n\}$, we give the precise formula of the Hausdorff dimension of the set \[ \mathbb{E}(\{s_n\},\{t_n\}):=\Big\{x\in(0,1):…
In 1996 Y. Kifer obtained a variational formula for the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points for which the frequencies of the digits in the Cantor series expansion is given. In this note we present a slightly different approach to this…
Given a random real quadratic field from $\{ \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{p}\,) ~|~ p \text{ primes} \}$, the conjectural probability $\mathbb{P}(h=q)$ that it has class number $q$ is given for all positive odd integers $q$. Some related conjectures of…
A generalization of numeration system in which the set N of the natural numbers is recognizable by finite automata can be obtained by describing a lexicographically ordered infinite regular language. Here we show that if P belonging to Q[x]…
We construct a trigonometric series converging to zero everywhere on a subsequence, with coefficients tending to zero. We show that any such series must satisfy that the subsequence is very sparse, and that the support of the related…
