We prove a Khintchine type theorem for approximation of elements in the Cantor set, as a subset of the formal Laurent series over $\mathbb{F}_3$, by rational functions of a specific type. Furthermore we construct elements in the Cantor set…

Sturm-Liouville problem with generalized derivative of self-similar Cantor type function as a weight is considered. Under Neumann and mixed boundary conditions the oscillating properties of the eigenfunctions are studied. The spectral…

We investigate the connections between computability theory and Nonstandard Analysis. In particular, we investigate the two following topics and show that they are intimately related. (T.1) A basic property of Cantor space $2^{\mathbb{N}}$…

In 1994, J.Cobb constructed a tame Cantor set in $\mathbb R^3$ each of whose projections into $2$-planes is one-dimensional. We show that an Antoine's necklace can serve as an example of a Cantor set all of whose projections are…

We establish various new results on a problem proposed by K. Mahler in 1984 concerning rational approximation to fractal sets by rational numbers inside and outside the set in question, respectively. Some of them provide a natural…

The Favard length of a Borel set $E\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ is the average length of its orthogonal projections. We prove that if $E$ is Ahlfors 1-regular and it has large Favard length, then it contains a big piece of a Lipschitz graph. This…

A Cantor set is a non-empty, compact set that has neither interior nor isolated points. In this paper a Cantor set $K\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is constructed such that every set definable in $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\cdot,K)$ is Borel. In addition, we…

It has been shown that Cantor bubble Julia sets can appear in the dynamics of polynomials and their singular perturbations. In this paper, we present a criterion that guarantees the existence of Cantor bubble Julia sets for certain rational…

For any category ${\mathcal E}$ and monad $T$ thereon, we introduce the notion of $T$-simplicial object in ${\mathcal E}$. Any $T$-category in the sense of Burroni induces a $T$-simplicial object as its nerve. This nerve construction…

Let $Q=(q_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ be a sequence of bases with $q_i\ge 2$. In the case when the $q_i$ are slowly growing and satisfy some additional weak conditions, we provide a construction of a number whose $Q$-Cantor series expansion is both…

Building upon previous works of Andr{\'e} and Chudnovsky, we prove a general result concerning the approximations of values at rational points a/b of any G-function F with rational Taylor coefficients by fractions of the form n/(B…

A Cantor series expansion for a real number $x$ with respect to a basic sequence $Q=(q_1,q_2,\dots)$, where $q_i \geq 2$, is a representation of the form $x=a_0 + \sum_{i=1}^\infty \frac{a_i}{q_1q_2\cdots q_i}$ where $0 \leq a_i<q_i$. These…

The well-know needle experiment of Buffon can be regarded as an analog (i.e., continuous) device that stochastically "computes" the number 2/pi ~ 0.63661, which is the experiment's probability of success. Generalizing the experiment and…

By using a multiscale analysis, we establish quantitative versions of the Besicovitch projection theorem (almost every projection of a purely unrectifiable set in the plane of finite length has measure zero) and a standard companion result,…

Given a badly approximable number $\alpha$, we study the asymptotic behaviour of the Sudler product defined by $P_N(\alpha) = \prod_{r=1}^N 2 | \sin \pi r \alpha |$. We show that $\liminf_{N \to \infty} P_N(\alpha) = 0$ and $\limsup_{N \to…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the Hopf characteristic function of fractals and chaotic dynamical systems in the limit of large argument. The small argument behavior is determined by the moments, since the characteristic function is…

For any group, there is a natural (pseudo-)norm on the vector space B1 of real (group) 1-boundaries, called the stable commutator length norm. This norm is closely related to, and can be thought of as a relative version of, the Gromov…

The Cantor-Bendixson rank of a topological space X is a measure of the complexity of the topology of X. The Cantor-Bendixson rank is most interesting when the space is profinite: Hausdorff, compact and totally disconnected. We will see that…

We investigate how non-zero rational multiplication and rational addition affect normality with respect to $Q$-Cantor series expansions. In particular, we show that there exists a $Q$ such that the set of real numbers which are $Q$-normal…

Let $X=\{X_n: n\in\mathbb{N}\}$ be the linear process defined by $X_n=\sum^{\infty}_{j=1} a_j\varepsilon_{n-j}$, where the coefficients $a_j=j^{-\beta}\ell(j)$ are constants with $\beta>0$ and $\ell$ a slowly varying function, and the…
