Let $x \in [0,1)$ be an irrational number with continued fraction expansion $[a_1(x),a_2(x), \cdots,a_n(x),\cdots]$ and $q_n(x)$ be the denominator of its $n$-th convergent. We establish, for any $\alpha,\beta$ in $[0,+\infty]$, the…

In this paper we quantify the notion of antisymmetry of the Fourier transform of certain vector valued measures. The introduced scale is related to the condition appearing in Uchiyama's theorem and is used to give a lower bound for the…

We obtain new lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of distance sets and pinned distance sets of planar Borel sets of dimension slightly larger than $1$, improving recent estimates of Keleti and Shmerkin, and of Liu in this regime. In…

We deal with Besicovitch's problem of existence of discrete orbits for transitive cylindrical transformations $T_\varphi:(x,t)\mapsto(x+\alpha,t+\varphi(x))$ where $Tx=x+\alpha$ is an irrational rotation on the circle $\T$ and…

One can consider $\mu$-Martin-L\"of randomness for a probability measure $\mu$ on $2^{\omega}$, such as the Bernoulli measure $\mu_p$ given $p \in (0, 1)$. We study Bernoulli randomness of sequences in $n^{\omega}$ with parameters $p_0,…

If $S$ is an infinite sequence over a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ and $\beta$ is a probability measure on $\Sigma$, then the {\it dimension} of $ S$ with respect to $\beta$, written $\dim^\beta(S)$, is a constructive version of Billingsley…

Consider the linear space of functions on the binary hypercube and the linear operator $S_\delta$ acting by averaging a function over a Hamming sphere of radius $\delta n$ around every point. It is shown that this operator has a…

A time series delta(n), the fluctuation of the nth unfolded eigenvalue was recently characterized for the classical Gaussian ensembles of NxN random matrices (GOE, GUE, GSE). It is investigated here for the beta-Hermite ensemble as a…

We study various measure theories using the classical approach and then compute the Hausdorff dimension of some simple objects and self-similar fractals. We then develop a nonstandard approach to these measure theories and examine the…

We present a new method for the derivation of convolution identities for finite sums of products of Bernoulli numbers. Our approach is motivated by the role of these identities in quantum field theory and string theory. We first show that…

This paper introduces the concept of average conformal hyperbolic sets, which admit only one positive and one negative Lyapunov exponents for any ergodic measure. For an average conformal hyperbolic set of a C1 diffeomorphism, utilizing the…

We show that the Feng-Xiong lower bound of $1/2$ for the box dimension of $\alpha\beta$-sets is tight. We also study how much of an $\alpha\beta$-orbit ``carries the dimension'': deleting an arbitararily small positive density set of times…

Using general identities for difference operators, as well as a technique of symbolic computation and tools from probability theory, we derive very general kth order (k \ge 2) convolution identities for Bernoulli and Euler polynomials. This…

The classical Aronszajn-Donoghue theorem states that for a rank one perturbation of a self-adjoint operator (by a cyclic vector) the singular parts of the spectral measures of the original and perturbed operators are mutually singular. As…

Let $u$ be a harmonic function in the unit ball $B_1 \subset \mathbb R^n$, normalized so that its gradient has magnitude at most 1 on the unit ball. We show that if the gradient of $u$ is $\epsilon$-small in size on a set $E\subset B_{1/2}$…

Let $\Gamma_{\beta,N}$ be the $N$-part homogeneous Cantor set with $\beta\in(1/(2N-1),1/N)$. Any string $(j_\ell)_{\ell=1}^\N$ with $j_\ell\in\{0,\pm 1,...,\pm(N-1)\}$ such that $t=\sum_{\ell=1}^\N j_\ell\beta^{\ell-1}(1-\beta)/(N-1)$ is…

We give an explicit expression for the invariant measure, absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure, of the greedy beta-transformation with three deleted digits. We define a version of the natural extension of the…

In [17] the author and A. Vershik have shown that for $\be=\frac12(1+\sqrt5)$ and the alphabet $\{0,1\}$ the infinite Bernoulli convolution ($=$ the Erd\"os measure) has a property similar to the Lebesgue measure. Namely, it is…

We investigate matching for the family $T_\alpha(x) = \beta x + \alpha \pmod 1$, $\alpha \in [0,1]$, for fixed $\beta > 1$. Matching refers to the property that there is an $n \in \mathbb N$ such that $T_\alpha^n(0) = T_\alpha^n(1)$. We…

Let $\alpha_m$ and $\beta_n$ be two sequences of real numbers supported on $[M, 2M]$ and $[N, 2N]$ with $M = X^{1/2 - \delta}$ and $N = X^{1/2 + \delta}$. We show that there exists a $\delta_0 > 0$ such that the multiplicative convolution…
