A balanced pair in a finite ordered set $P=(V,\leq)$ is a pair $(x,y)$ of elements of $V$ such that the proportion of linear extensions of $P$ that put $x$ before $y$ is in the real interval $[1/3, 2/3]$. We prove that every finite $N$-free…

For $\alpha, \beta, \delta \in [0,1], \alpha +\beta = 1 $ we consider sets $$ {\rm BAD}^* (\alpha, \beta ;\delta) = \left\{\xi = (\xi_1,\xi_2) \in [0,1]^2: ,\inf_{p\in \mathbb{N}} \max \{(p\log(p+1))^\alpha ||p\xi_1||, (p\log (p+1))^\beta…

We prove that the set of exceptional $\lambda\in (1/2,1)$ such that the associated Bernoulli convolution is singular has zero Hausdorff dimension, and likewise for biased Bernoulli convolutions, with the exceptional set independent of the…

Let $p>3$ be a prime, and let $a$ be a rational p-adic integer. Let $\{B_n(x)\}$ and $\{E_n(x)\}$ denote the Bernoulli polynomials and Euler polynomials, respectively. In this paper we show that $$\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\binom…

We consider infinitely convolved Bernoulli measures (or simply Bernoulli convolutions) related to the $\beta$-numeration. A matrix decomposition of these measures is obtained in the case when $\beta$ is a PV number. We also determine their…

A pinnacle of a permutation is a value that is larger than its immediate neighbors when written in one-line notation. In this paper, we build on previous work that characterized admissible pinnacle sets of permutations. For these sets,…

In this short paper, the commutator of monomials of operators obeying constant commutation relations is expressed in terms of anticommutators. The formula involves Bernoulli numbers or Euler polynomials evaluated in zero. The role of…

For any pair of quantum states (the hypotheses), the task of binary quantum hypotheses testing is to derive the tradeoff relation between the probability $p_{01}$ of rejecting the null hypothesis and $p_{10}$ of accepting the alternative…

In this paper we study some sophisticated supercongruences involving dual sequences. For $n=0,1,2,\ldots$ define $$d_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk\binom xk2^k$$ and $$s_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk\binom xk\binom{x+k}k=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom…

This paper argues that mathematical objects are constructions and that constructions introduce a flexibility in the ways that mathematical objects are represented (as sets of binary sequences for example) and presented (in a particular…

Poly-Bernoulli numbers are one of generalizations of the classical Bernoulli numbers. Since a negative index poly-Bernoulli number is an integer, it is an interesting problem to study this number from combinatorial viewpoint. In this short…

In this paper, we consider recurrence sequences $x_n=\xi_1 \alpha_1^n+\xi_2 \alpha_2^n$ ($n=0,1,\ldots$) with companion polynomial $P(X)$. For example, the sequence $x_n=\xi_1(4+\sqrt{2})^n+\xi_2(4-\sqrt{2})^n$ satisfies the recurrence…

The problem of deciding whether a set of quantum measurements is jointly measurable is known to be equivalent to determining whether a quantum assemblage is unsteerable. This problem can be formulated as a semidefinite program (SDP).…

Suppose we are given two probability measures on the set of one-way infinite finite-alphabet sequences and consider the question when one of the measures predicts the other, that is, when conditional probabilities converge (in a certain…

We introduce and study a subclass of joint Bernoulli distributions which has the palindromic property. For such distributions the vector of joint probabilities is unchanged when the order of the elements is reversed. We prove for binary…

A classical theorem due to Mycielski states that an equivalence relation $E$ having the Baire property and meager equivalence classes must have a perfect set of pairwise inequivalent elements. We consider equivalence relations with…

This paper defines a new pseudometric for binary relations between finite sets that measures consensus among subsets. The main results are (1) a concise restatement of this pseudometric with an intuitively appealing interpretation via a…

We consider a generalized Cantor set $E(\omega)$ for an infinite sequence $\omega=(q_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ of positive numbers with $0<q_n<1$, and examine the quasiconformal equivalence to the standard middle one-third Cantor set…

We prove a classification result for a large class of noncommutative Bernoulli crossed products $(P,\phi)^\Lambda \rtimes \Lambda$ without almost periodic states. Our results improve the classification results from [1], where only Bernoulli…

For $\xi \in \big(0, {1/2} \big)$, we denote by $E_{\xi}$ the perfect symmetric set associated to $\xi$, that is $$ E_{\xi} = \Big\{\exp \big(2i \pi (1-\xi) \dsp \sum_{n = 1}^{+\infty} \epsilon_{n} \xi^{n-1} \big) : \epsilon_{n} = 0…
