In this article we study the notion of essential subset of an additive basis, that is to say the minimal finite subsets $P$ of a basis $A$ such that $A \setminus P$ doesn't remains a basis. The existence of an essential subset for a basis…
A set of non-negative integers is an additive basis with range $n$, if its sumset covers all consecutive integers from 0 to $n$, but not $n+1$. If the range is exactly twice the largest element of the basis, the basis is restricted.…
An interesting result due to Dilworth et al. was that if we enlarge greedy sums by a constant factor $\lambda > 1$ in the condition defining the greedy property, then we obtain an equivalence of the almost greedy property, a strictly weaker…
In additive number theory, a finite set $A$ of integers is an $h$-basis for $n$ if every integer in $\{0,1,2,\ldots, n\}$ can be represented as the sum of exactly $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. This paper introduces a new…
For each positive integer n greater than or equal to 2, a new approach to expressing real numbers as sequences of nonnegative integers is given. The n=2 case is equivalent to the standard continued fraction algorithm. For n=3, it reduces to…
Let $X=\sum_{k=1}^\infty X_k \beta^{-k}$ be the base-$\beta$ expansion of a continuous random variable $X$ on the unit interval where $\beta$ is the golden ratio. We study the asymptotic distribution and convergence rate of the scaled…
We study the sets DF({\beta}) of digit frequencies of {\beta}-expansions of numbers in [0,1]. We show that DF({\beta}) is a compact convex set with countably many extreme points which varies continuously with {\beta}; that there is a full…
We establish the asymptotic expansion in $\beta$ matrix models with a confining, off-critical potential, in the regime where the support of the equilibrium measure is a union of segments. We first address the case where the filling…
A repdigit is a positive integer that has only one distinct digit in its decimal expansion, i.e., a number has the form $d(10^m-1)/9$ for some $m\geq 1$ and $1 \leq d \leq 9$. Let $\left(T_n\right)_{n\ge0}$ be the sequence of Tribonacci.…
We show that for a Salem number $\beta$ of degree $d$, there exists a positive constant $c(d)$ that $\beta^m$ is a Parry number for integers $m$ of natural density $\ge c(d)$. Further, we show $c(6)>1/2$ and discuss a relation to the…
Let $\beta,\epsilon \in (0,1]$, and $k \geq \exp(122 \max\{1/\beta,1/\epsilon\})$. We prove that if $A,B$ are subsets of a prime field $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$, and $|B| \geq p^{\beta}$, then there exists a sum of the form $$S = a_{1}B \pm \ldots…
In the base phi expansion any natural number is written uniquely as a sum of powers of the golden mean with coefficients 0 and 1, where it is required that the product of two consecutive digits is always 0. We tackle the problem of…
We continue our study of the Thresholding Greedy Algorithm when we restrict the vectors involved in our approximations so that they either are supported on intervals of $\mathbb N$ or have constant coefficients. We introduce and…
We define Poisson genericity for infinite sequences in any finite or countable alphabet with an invariant exponentially-mixing probability measure. A sequence is Poisson generic if the number of occurrences of blocks of symbols…
A study of certain Hamiltonian systems has lead Y. Long to conjecture the existence of infinitely many primes of the form $p=2[\alpha n]+1$, where $1<\alpha<2$ is a fixed irrational number. An argument of P. Ribenboim coupled with classical…
In this paper, we consider the positional numeration system, called the Cantor real expansion, on the unit interval $[\gamma, \gamma+1]$, where $\gamma \in \mathbb{R}$, with respect to an alternate base (i.e., a base which is a purely…
In the present paper we extend Champernowne's construction of normal numbers to provide sequences which are generic for a given invariant probability measure, which need not be the maximal one. We present a construction together with…
Since E. Borel proved in 1909 that almost all real numbers with respect to Lebesgue measure are normal to all bases, an open problem has been whether simple irrationals like square root of 2 are normal to any base. We show that each number…
The $(-\beta)$-integers are natural generalisations of the $\beta$-integers, and thus of the integers, for negative real bases. When $\beta$ is the analogue of a Parry number, we describe the structure of the set of $(-\beta)$-integers by a…
We investigate optimal expansions of Kakeya sequences for the representation of real numbers. Expansions of Kakeya sequences generalize the expansions in non-integer bases and they display analogous redundancy phenomena. In this paper, we…
