A Tychonoff space $X$ is called ({\em sequentially}) {\em Ascoli} if every compact subset (resp. convergent sequence) of $C_k(X)$ is equicontinuous, where $C_k(X)$ denotes the space of all real-valued continuous functions on $X$ endowed…

In this paper, we obtain a characterization of short normal sequences over a finite Abelian p-group, thus answering positively a conjecture of Gao for a variety of such groups. Our main result is deduced from a theorem of Alon, Friedland…

This paper catalogues a variety of examples concerning a type of function of a $p$-adic integer variable defined by a formal series expression we have dubbed "$\mathcal{F}$-series". These series exhibit a new, previously undocumented form…

For a finite abelian group $G$ with subsets $A$ and $B$, the sumset $AB$ is $\{ab \mid a\in A, b \in B\}$. A fundamental problem in additive combinatorics is to find a lower bound for the cardinality of $AB$ in terms of the cardinalities of…

In this paper, we present the foundations of Summability Calculus, which places various established results in number theory, infinitesimal calculus, summability theory, asymptotic analysis, information theory, and the calculus of finite…

For a finite abelian group $(G,+)$, the constant $C(G)$ is defined to be the smallest natural number $k$ such that any sequence in $G$ having length $k$ will have a subsequence of consecutive terms whose sum is zero. For a subset…

Given $\beta\in(1,2)$ and $x\in[0,\frac{1}{\beta-1}]$, a sequence $(\epsilon_{i})_{i=1}^{\infty}\in\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ is called a $\beta$-expansion for $x$ if $$x=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}\frac{\epsilon_{i}}{\beta^{i}}.$$ In a recent article…

We prove that, for every decreasing sequence {a \sb k} of natural numbers, there exists a map f: X --> X with cat (f\sp k)=a\sb k.

This survey paper is based on a talk given at the 44th Summer Symposium in Real Analysis in Paris. This line of research was initiated by a question of Haight and Weizs\"aker concerning almost everywhere convergence properties of series of…

In a metric space, such as the real numbers with their standard metric, a set A is open if and only if no sequence with terms outside of A has a limit inside A. Moreover, a metric space is compact if and only if every sequence has a…

In this paper we continue the investigation of the Abel equation with the right part belonging to a Lebesgue weighted space. We have improved the previously known result - the uniqueness and existence theorem formulated in terms of the…

Continued fractions have a long history in number theory, especially in the area of Diophantine approximation. The aim of this expository paper is to survey the main results on the theory of $p$--adic continued fractions, i.e. continued…

Let $\mathcal{A}(\ell,n) \subset S_n^{\ell}$ denote the set of all $\ell$-tuples $(\pi_1,\dots,\pi_{\ell})$, for $\pi_1,\dots,\pi_{\ell} \in S_n$ satisfying: $\forall i<j$ we have $\pi_i\pi_j=\pi_j\pi_i$. Considering the action of $S_n$ on…

It is consistent that the continuum be arbitrary large and no absolute $\kappa$-Borel set $X$ of density $\kappa$, $\aleph_1<\kappa<\mathfrak{c}$, condenses onto a compact metric space. It is consistent that the continuum be arbitrary large…

We examine sets $\mathscr A$ of natural numbers having the property that for some real number $p\in (0,2)$, one has the subconvex bound $$\int_0^1 \Bigl| \sum_{n\in \mathscr A\cap [1,N]}e(n\alpha)\Bigr|^p\, {\rm d}\alpha \ll N^{-1}|\mathscr…

A number is perfect if it is the sum of its proper divisors; here we call a finite group `perfect' if its order is the sum of the orders of its proper normal subgroups. (This conflicts with standard terminology but confusion should not…

An approach is suggested defining effective sums of divergent series in the form of self-similar exponential approximants. The procedure of constructing these approximants from divergent series with arbitrary noninteger powers is developed.…

We prove that if $\lambda$ is a fixed uncountable cardinal and $f = \langle \ka_{\al} : \al < \delta \rangle$ is a sequence of infinite cardinals where $\delta < \omega_3$ and $\ka_{\al}\in \{\om,\lambda\}$ for each $\al < \delta$ in such a…

A permutation sequence is said to be convergent if the density of occurrences of every fixed permutation in the elements of the sequence converges. We prove that such a convergent sequence has a natural limit object, namely a Lebesgue…

We consider the families of finite Abelian groups $\ZZ/p\ZZ\times \ZZ/p\ZZ$, $\ZZ/p^2\ZZ$ and $\ZZ/p\ZZ\times \ZZ/q\ZZ$ for $p,q$ two distinct prime numbers. For the two first families we give a simple characterization of all functions…
