We show that there exist exactly 203 positive integers $N$ such that for some integer $d \geq 2$ this number is a $d$-digit palindrome base 10 as well as a $d$-digit palindrome for some base $b$ different from 10. To be more precise, such…

We discuss how to write down three specific natural numbers $A$, $B$, $C$ such that for any real number $r$ you've probably ever thought of, it is consistent with $\mathsf{ZFC}$ set theory that $$\def\Rb{\mathbb{R}}\def\Nb{\mathbb{N}}r =…

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 $b \geq 3$ be a positive integer. A natural number is said to be a base-$b$ Zuckerman number if it is divisible by the product of its base-$b$ digits. Let $\mathcal{Z}_b(x)$ be the set of base-$b$ Zuckerman numbers that do not exceed…

Let $(a(n) : n \in \mathbb{N})$ denote a sequence of nonnegative integers. Let $0.a(1)a(2)...$ denote the real number obtained by concatenating the digit expansions, in a fixed base, of consecutive entries of $(a(n) : n \in \mathbb{N})$.…

We show that a sequence has effective Hausdorff dimension 1 if and only if it is coarsely similar to a Martin-L\"{o}f random sequence. More generally, a sequence has effective dimension $s$ if and only if it is coarsely similar to a weakly…

We fix a positive integer $M$, and we consider expansions in arbitrary real bases $q>1$ over the alphabet $\{0,1,...,M\}$. We denote by $U_q$ the set of real numbers having a unique expansion. Completing many former investigations, we give…

We prove that every real number in [0,1] is the Hausdorff dimension of a Hamel basis of the vector space of reals over the field of rationals. The logic of our proof is of particular interest. The statement of our theorem is classical; it…

Let $\mathbf{S}$ be the set of all finite or infinite increasing sequences of positive integers. For a sequence $S=\{s(n)\}, n\geq1,$ from $\mathbf{S},$ let us call a positive number $N$ an exponentially $S$-number $(N\in E(S)),$ if all…

A beta expansion is the analogue of the base 10 representation of a real number, where the base may be a non-integer. Although the greedy beta expansion of 1 using a non-integer base is in general infinitely long and non-repeating, it is…

We prove that there exist positive constants $C$ and $c$ such that for any integer $d \ge 2$ the set of ${\mathbf x}\in [0,1)^d$ satisfying $$ cN^{1/2}\le \left|\sum^N_{n=1}\exp\left (2 \pi i \left (x_1n+\ldots+x_d n^d\right)\right)…

We show, from a topological viewpoint, that most numbers are not normal in a strong sense. More precisely, the set of numbers $x \in (0,1]$ with the following property is comeager: for all integers $b\ge 2$ and $k\ge 1$, the sequence of…

For a fixed $\theta^2=1/m$, $m \in \mathbb{N}_+$, let $x \in [0, \theta)$ and $[a_1(x) \theta, a_2(x) \theta, \ldots]$ be the $\theta$-expansion of $x$. Our first goal is to extend for $\theta$-expansions the results of Jarnik \cite{J-1928}…

In the classical sense, the set B consists of all integers which can be written as a sum of two perfect squares. In other words, these are the values attained by norms of integral ideals over the Gaussian field Q(i). G.J. Rieger (1965) and…

In this work, we study real numbers $x$ for which $p(x)$ is (absolutely) normal for every non-constant integer-valued polynomial $p$. We call such numbers transcendentally normal. We prove that almost every real number is transcendentally…

For $b\leq -2$ and $e \geq 2$, let $S_{e,b}:\mathbb{Z}\to\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$ be the function taking an integer to the sum of the $e$-powers of the digits of its base $b$ expansion. An integer $a$ is a $b$-happy number if there exists…

Let $g \geq 2$ be an integer. A natural number is said to be a base-$g$ Niven number if it is divisible by the sum of its base-$g$ digits. Assuming Hooley's Riemann Hypothesis, we prove that the set of base-$g$ Niven numbers is an additive…

Let $b \geq 2$ be an integer, and write the base $b$ expansion of any non-negative integer $n$ as $n=x_0+x_1b+\dots+ x_{d}b^{d}$, with $x_d>0$ and $ 0 \leq x_i < b$ for $i=0,\dots,d$. Let $\phi(x)$ denote an integer polynomial such that…

This paper extends some results of [M5] and [M3], in particular, removing assumptions of positive lower density. We give conditions on a general family $P_{\lambda}:\mathbb{R}^{n}\to\mathbb{R}^{m}, \lambda \in \Lambda,$ of orthogonal…

We consider sets of real numbers in $[0,1)$ with prescribed frequencies of partial quotients in their regular continued fraction expansions. It is shown that the Hausdorff dimensions of these sets, always bounded from below by $1/2$, are…
