We show how Benford's Law (BL) for first, second, ..., digits, emerges from the distribution of digits of numbers of the type $a^{R}$, with $a$ any real positive number and $R$ a set of real numbers uniformly distributed in an interval $[…

James Maynard has taken the analytic number theory world by storm in the last decade, proving several important and surprising theorems, resolving questions that had seemed far out of reach. He is perhaps best known for his work on small…

We investigate the set of $x \in S^1$ such that for every positive integer $N$, the first $N$ points in the orbit of $x$ under rotation by irrational $\theta$ contain at least as many values in the interval $[0,1/2]$ as in the complement.…

The main purpose of this paper is to study the arithmetical properties of values \(\sum_{m=0}^{\infty} \beta^{-w(m)}\), where \(\beta\) is a fixed Pisot or Salem number and \(w(m)\) (\(m=0,1,\ldots\)) are distinct sequences of nonnegative…

We first introduce the Hamming distance between two strings. Then, we apply this concept to the representations of whole numbers in base n for all positive integers n > 2. We claim that a simple formula exists for the sum of all Hamming…

We initiate the study of the sets $H(c)$, $0<c<1$, of real $x$ for which the sequence $(kx)_{k\geq1}$ (viewed mod 1) consistently hits the interval $[0,c)$ at least as often as expected (i. e., with frequency $\geq c$). More formally, \[…

Building upon previous works of Andr{\'e} and Chudnovsky, we prove a general result concerning the approximations of values at rational points a/b of any G-function F with rational Taylor coefficients by fractions of the form n/(B…

Let $\{x\_n\}\_{n\geq 0}$ be a sequence of $[0,1]^d$, $\{\lambda\_n\} \_{n\geq 0}$ a sequence of positive real numbers converging to 0, and $\delta>1$. Let $\mu$ be a positive Borel measure on $[0,1]^d$, $\rho\in (0,1]$ and $\alpha>0$.…

It is shown that the set of palindromes is an additive basis for the natural numbers in any base. Specifically, we prove that every natural number can be expressed as the sum of $O(d)$ palindromes in base $d$.

A number which is S.P in base r is a positive integer which is equal to the sum of its base-r digits multiplied by the product of its base-r digits. These numbers have been studied extensively in The Mathematical Gazette. Recently, Shah Ali…

A 1952 result of Davenport and Erd\H{o}s states that if $p$ is an integer-valued polynomial, then the real number $0.p(1)p(2)p(3)\dots$ is Borel normal in base ten. A later result of Nakai and Shiokawa extends this result to polynomials…

We introduce and study expansions of real numbers with respect to two integer bases.

We study the set $\mathcal{S}$ of odd positive integers $n$ with the property ${2n}/{\sigma(n)} - 1 = 1/x$, for positive integer $x$, i.e., the set that relates to odd perfect and odd "spoof perfect" numbers. As a consequence, we find that…

Let $L_0$ be a densely defined minimal linear operator in a Hilbert space $H$. We prove theorem that if there exists at least one correct extension $L_S$ of $L_0$ with the property $D(L_S)=D(L_S^*)$, then we can describe all correct…

A Trott number is a number $x\in(0,1)$ whose continued fraction expansion is equal to its base $b$ expansion for a given base $b$, in the following sense: If $x=[0;a_1,a_2,\dots]$, then $x=(0.\hat{a}_1\hat{a}_2\dots)_b$, where $\hat{a}_i$…

We obtain exact and asymptotic expressions for the excess of nonnegative (2m+1)-multiples less than (2m)^k with even digit sums in the base 2m.

An integer $n\ge 1$ is said to be practical if every natural number $ m \le n$ can be expressed as a sum of distinct positive divisors of $n$. The number of practical numbers up to $x$ is asymptotic to $c x/\log x$, where $c$ is a constant.…

Given a compact set of real numbers, a random $C^{m + \alpha}$-diffeomorphism is constructed such that the image of any measure concentrated on the set and satisfying a certain condition involving a real number $s$, almost surely has…

Let the sequence $\{t_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ of reals satisfy the condition $ \frac{t_{n+1}}{t_n} \ge 1+ \frac{\gamma}{n^\beta},0\le \beta <1, \gamma >0. $ Then the set $ \{\alpha \in [0,1]: \exists \varkappa > 0 \forall n \in \mathbb{N} ||t_n…

We show that for the base two expansion \[ x=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}2^{-(d_{1}(x)+d_{2}(x)+\dots+d_{i}(x))}\] with $x\in(0,1]$ and $d_{i}(x)\in\mathbb{N}$ the set $A=\{x|\lim_{i\to\infty}d_{i}(x)=\infty\}$ has Hausdorff dimension zero, this is…
