We construct certain Rajchman measures by using integrability properties of the Fourier and Fourier-Stieltjes transforms. In particular, we state a problem and prove that it is equivalent to the known and still unsolved question posed by R.…
R. Salem (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 53 (3) (1943) 427-439) asked whether the Fourier-Stieltjes transform of the Minkowski question mark function ?(x) vanishes at infinity. In this note we present several possible approaches towards the…
By using structural and asymptotic properties of the Kontorovich-Lebedev transform associated with Minkowski's question mark function, we give an affirmative answer to the question posed by R. Salem (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., 53 (3), (1943),…
The Salem problem to verify whether Fourier-Stieltjes coefficients of the Minkowski question mark function vanish at infinity is solved recently affirmatively. In this paper by using methods of classical analysis and special functions we…
In this paper we investigate the Fourier-Stieltjes coefficients of the Minkowski question mark function. In 1943, R. Salem asked whether these coefficients vanish at infinity. We propose the conjecture which implies the affirmative answer…
Minkowski's question mark function is strictly increasing on $[0, 1]$ and hence defines a Stieltjes measure on $[0, 1]$. A problem originating from Salem in 1943, is to determine whether the Fourier series of this measure decay to zero or…
For classical Bernoulli convolutions, the Rajchman property, i.e. the convergence to zero at infinity of the Fourier transform, was characterized by successive works of Erd{\"o}s [2] and Salem [12]. We prove weak forms of their results for…
We investigate under which conditions a given invariant measure $\mu$ for the dynamical system defined by the Gauss map $x \mapsto 1/x \mod 1$ is a Rajchman measure with polynomially decaying Fourier transform $$|\widehat{\mu}(\xi)| =…
This article is an exposition of recent results and methods on the prevalence of normal numbers in the support of self-similar measures on the line. We also provide an essentially self-contained proof of a recent Theorem that the Rajchman…
Let $\nu$ be the Furstenberg measure associated with a non-elementary probability measure $\mu$ on SL_2(R). We show that, when $\mu$ has a finite second moment, the Fourier coefficients of $\nu$ tend to zero at infinity. In other words,…
The Minkowski question mark function is a rich object which can be explored from the perspective of dynamical systems, complex dynamics, metric number theory, multifractal analysis, transfer operators, integral transforms, and as a function…
In this article we prove the existence of sets $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ of zero Fourier dimension such that it is possible to restrict the Fourier transform to $E$ on a certain non-trivial range $[1,\tilde{p})$ with $1<\tilde{p}<2$. This…
The notion of Riesz sets tells us that a support of Fourier transform of a measure with non-trivial singular part has to be large. The notion of Rajchman sets tells us that if the Fourier transform tends to zero at infinity outside a small…
In 1963, Rapha\"el Salem concluded his highly influential book ``Algebraic Numbers and Fourier Analysis'' with a list of four unsolved problems. The first two problems remain wide open while the last problem on the absolute continuity of…
The Minkowski Question Mark function relates the continued-fraction representation of the real numbers, to their binary expansion. This function is peculiar in many ways; one is that its derivative is 'singular'. One can show by classical…
We give an affirmative answer to a question asked by N. Moshchevitin \cite{m1} in his lecture at International Congress of Basic Science, Beijing, 2024 (see also \cite{m}, Section 6.3). The question is that whether the remainder $$…
Minkowski's question mark function is the distribution function of a singular continuous measure: we study this measure from the point of view of logarithmic potential theory and orthogonal polynomials. We conjecture that it is regular, in…
In this paper, we review the basic properties of measures vanishing at infinity and prove a version of the Riemann--Lebesgue lemma for Fourier transformable measures.
Given any function $\phi \colon [0,\infty)\to (0,1]$ satisfying $\lim_{\xi\to\infty}\phi(\xi) = 0$, we prove the existence of i) self-similar measures and ii) nonlinear $C^{\infty}$ self-conformal measures which are Rajchman and whose…
In this paper we study the inversion problem in measure and Fourier-Stieltjes algebras from qualitative and quantitative point of view extending the results obtained by N. Nikolski.
