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 $Q=(q_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ be a sequence of bases with $q_i\ge 2$. In the case when the $q_i$ are slowly growing and satisfy some additional weak conditions, we provide a construction of a number whose $Q$-Cantor series expansion is both…

Given any oracle, A, we construct a basic sequence Q, computable in the jump of A, such that no A-computable real is Q-distribution-normal. A corollary to this is that there is a Delta^0_{n+1} basic sequence with respect to which no…

Let $S \subseteq \mathbb{N}$ have the property that for each $k \in S$ the set $(S - k) \cap \mathbb{N} \setminus S$ has asymptotic density $0$. We prove that there exists a basic sequence $Q$ where the set of numbers $Q$-normal of all…

Let $Q=(q_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of integers greater than or equal to 2. We say that a real number $x$ in $[0,1)$ is {\it $Q$-distribution normal} if the sequence $(q_1q_2... q_n x)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ is uniformly distributed mod 1.…

A Cantor series expansion for a real number $x$ with respect to a basic sequence $Q=(q_1,q_2,\dots)$, where $q_i \geq 2$, is a representation of the form $x=a_0 + \sum_{i=1}^\infty \frac{a_i}{q_1q_2\cdots q_i}$ where $0 \leq a_i<q_i$. These…

It is well known that all numbers that are normal of order $k$ in base $b$ are also normal of all orders less than $k$. Another basic fact is that every real number is normal in base $b$ if and only if it is simply normal in base $b^k$ for…

The theory of normality for base $g$ expansions of real numbers in $[0,1)$ is rich and well developed. Similar theories have been developed for many other numeration systems, such as the regular continued fraction expansion,…

Fix a sequence of integers $Q=\{q_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ such that $q_n$ is greater than or equal to 2 for all $n$. In this paper, we improve upon results by J. Galambos and F. Schweiger showing that almost every (in the sense of Lebesgue…

Following in the footsteps of P. Erd\H{o}s and A. R\'enyi we compute the Hausdorff dimension of sets of numbers whose digits with respect to their $Q$-Cantor series expansions satisfy various statistical properties. In particular, we…

Suppose that $(P,Q) \in \mathbb{N}_2^{\mathbb{N}} \times \mathbb{N}_2^{\mathbb{N}}$ and $x=E_0.E_1E_2\cdots$ is the $P$-Cantor series expansion of $x \in \mathbb{R}$. We define $\psi_{P,Q}(x):=\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac {\min(E_n,q_n-1)} {q_1…

A. Renyi \cite{Renyi} made a definition that gives one generalization of simple normality in the context of $Q$-Cantor series. Similarly, in this paper we give a definition which generalizes the notion of normality in the context of…

It is well known that if $0.a_1a_2a_3\dots$ is the base-$b$ expansion of a number normal to base-$b$, then the numbers $0.a_ka_{m+k}a_{2m+k}\dots$ for $m\ge 2$, $k\ge 1$ are all normal to base-$b$ as well. In contrast, given a continued…

We show that the set of numbers that are $Q$-distribution normal but not simply $Q$-ratio normal has full Hausdorff dimension. It is further shown under some conditions that countable intersections of sets of this form still have full…

In the present article, modeling certain rational numbers, that are represented in terms of Cantor series, are described. The statements on relations between digits in the representations of rational numbers by Cantor series (for the case…

We show that the distribution of the coefficients of the q-derangement numbers is asymptotically normal. We also show that this property holds for the q-derangement numbers of type B.

We give a construction of a real number that is normal to all integer bases and continued fraction normal. The computation of the first n digits of its continued fraction expansion performs in the order of n^4 mathematical operations. The…

We show that polynomial-time randomness (p-randomness) is preserved under a variety of familiar operations, including addition and multiplication by a nonzero polynomial-time computable real number. These results follow from a general…

We establish an equidistribution result for push-forwards of certain locally finite algebraic measures in the adelic extension of the space of lattices in the plane. As an application of our analysis we obtain new results regarding the…

We establish various new results on a problem proposed by K. Mahler in 1984 concerning rational approximation to fractal sets by rational numbers inside and outside the set in question, respectively. Some of them provide a natural…
