We consider computation of permanent of a positive $(N\times N)$ non-negative matrix, $P=(P_i^j|i,j=1,\cdots,N)$, or equivalently the problem of weighted counting of the perfect matchings over the complete bipartite graph $K_{N,N}$. The…
It was shown by V. Bergelson that any set B with positive upper multiplicative density contains nicely intertwined arithmetic and geometric progressions: For each positive integer k there exist integers a,b,d such that $ {b(a+id)^j:i,j…
We define an algorithm which begins with an sequence of sequences, and produces a single sequence, with following property: If at least one of the original sequences has a tail that is periodic, then the output sequence has a periodic tail,…
Precision tests of the Standard Model using $\beta$ decay have always relied on a careful choice of transition to minimize residual nuclear structure uncertainties. Following breakthroughs in nucleon-level radiative corrections in the last…
A simple Parry number is a real number \beta>1 such that the R\'enyi expansion of 1 is finite, of the form d_\beta(1)=t_1...t_m. We study the palindromic structure of infinite aperiodic words u_\beta that are the fixed point of a…
We prove results concerning the joint limiting distribution of the renewal time of denominators and consecutive digits of random irrational numbers in the case of continued fractions with even partial quotients, with odd partial quotients,…
For a given quadratic irrational $\alpha$, let us denote by $D(\alpha)$ the length of the periodic part of the continued fraction expansion of $\alpha$. We prove that for a positive integer $d$, which is not a perfect square, the sequence…
In this note we give an elementary proof of the space-like real analyticity of solutions to a degenerate evolution problem that arises in the study of fractional parabolic operators of the type $(\partial_t - div_x(B(x)\nabla_x))^s$,…
For a real number $\beta>1$, Erd\H{o}s, Jo\'o and Komornik study distances between consecutive points in the set $X^m(\beta)=\bigl\{\sum_{j=0}^n a_j \beta^j : n\in\mathbb N,\,a_j\in\{0,1,\dots,m\}\bigr\}$. Pisot numbers play a crucial role…
Let $f(x)$ be a square free quartic polynomial defined over a quadratic field $K$ such that its leading coefficient is a square. If the continued fraction expansion of $\displaystyle \sqrt{f(x)}$ is periodic, then its period $n$ lies in the…
Given a positive integer $M$ and $q \in (1, M+1]$ we consider expansions in base $q$ for real numbers $x \in \left[0, {M}/{q-1}\right]$ over the alphabet $\{0, \ldots, M\}$. In particular, we study some dynamical properties of the natural…
The rational base number system, introduced by Akiyama, Frougny, and Sakarovitch in 2008, is a generalization of the classical integer base number system. Within this framework two interesting families of infinite words emerge, called…
In a previous paper [1] it was discussed the viability of functional analysis using as a basis a couple of generic functions, and hence vectorial decomposition. Here we complete the paradigm exploiting one of the analysis methodologies…
We study structural limitations of purely algebraic reasoning in the analysis of arithmetic dynamical systems. Rather than addressing the truth of specific conjectures, we introduce a fragment - relative notion of algebraic refutability for…
It is well known that any power series over a finite field represents a rational function if and only if its sequence of coefficients is ultimately periodic. The famous Christol's Theorem states that a power series over a finite field is…
Given a totally finite ordered alphabet $ A $, endowing the set of words over $ A $ with the alternating lexicographic order, we define a new class of Lyndon words. We study the fundamental properties of the associated symbolic dynamical…
Asymptotic approximations of Jacobi polynomials are given for large values of the $\beta$-parameter and of their zeros. The expansions are given in terms of Laguerre polynomials and of their zeros. The levels of accuracy of the…
Let $k$ be a possibly non-perfect field of characteristic $p > 0$. In this work we prove the local existence of absolute $p$-bases for regular algebras of finite type over $k$. Namely, consider a regular variety $Z$ over $k$. Kimura and…
Many generalizations of continued fractions, where the reciprocal function has been replaced by a more general function, have been studied, and it is often asked whether such generalized expansions can have nice properties. For instance, we…
We prove the existence of an effective universal upper bound for the order of any integral periodic orbit of any integral algebraic dynamical system in a fixed ambient space. Using this, we demonstrate the decidability of periodicity in…
