Let $A$ be a set of natural numbers. A set $B$, a set of natural numbers, is said to be an additive complement of the set $A$ if all sufficiently large natural numbers can be represented in the form $x+y$, where $x\in A$ and $y\in B$. This…

In this paper, the estimation formula of the number of primes in a given interval is obtained by using the prime distribution property. For any prime pairs $p>5$ and $ q>5 $, construct a disjoint infinite set sequence $A_1, A_2, \ldots,…

Diophantine problems involving recurrence sequences have a long history and is an actively studied topic within number theory. In this paper, we connect to the field by considering the equation \begin{align*} B_mB_{m+d}\dots…

We consider an analogue of Nakada's $\alpha$-continued fraction transformation in the setting of continued fractions with odd partial quotients. More precisely, given $\alpha \in [\frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{5}-1),\frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{5}+1)]$, we show…

Given two coprime integers $p\ge 2$ and $q \ge 3$, let $D_p\subset[0,1)$ consist of all rational numbers which have a finite $p$-ary expansion, and let $$ K(q, \mathcal{A})=\bigg\{ \sum_{i=1}^\infty \frac{d_i}{q^i}: d_i\in \mathcal{A}~…

The well known binary and decimal representations of the integers, and other similar number systems, admit many generalisations. Here, we investigate whether still every integer could have a finite expansion on a given integer base b, when…

In this paper, we study the metrical theory of Cartesian products of exact approximation sets in $\beta$-expansions. More precisely, for an integer $d \ge 2$ and real numbers $\beta_i > 1$ $(1 \le i \le d)$, we consider the set of points…

In this work in progress, we study the asymptotic behaviour of the $p$-quantile of the Beta distribution, i.e. the quantity $q$ defined implicitly by $\int_0^q t^{a - 1} (1 - t)^{b - 1} \text{d} t = p B (a, b)$, as a function of the first…

A sequence $\textbf{p}=(p_{n})$ of real numbers is called Abel convergent to $\ell$ if the series $\Sigma_{k=0}^{\infty}p_{k}x^{k}$ is convergent for $0\leq x<1$ and \[\lim_{x \to 1^{-}}(1-x) \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}p_{k}x^{k}=\ell.\] We…

Let $X$ be a finite simply connected CW complex of dimension $n$. The loop space homology $H\_*(\Omega X;\mathbb Q)$ is the universal enveloping algebra of a graded Lie algebra $L\_X$ isomorphic with $ pi\_{*-1} (X)\otimes \mathbb Q$. Let…

Fix a countable nonstandard model $\mathcal M$ of Peano Arithmetic. Even with some rather severe restrictions placed on the types of minimal cofinal extensions $\mathcal N \succ \mathcal M$ that are allowed, we still find that there are…

We continue and generalise our earlier investigations of the number of squares in binary recurrence sequences. Here we consider sequences, $\left( y_{k} \right)_{k=-\infty}^{\infty}$, arising from the solutions of generalised negative Pell…

Given a set $T \subset (0, +\infty)$, intervals $I\subset (0, +\infty)$ and $J\subset {\mathbb R}$, as well as functions $g_t:I\times J\rightarrow J$ with $t$'s running through the set \[ T^{\ast}:=T \cup \big\{t^{-1}\colon t \in…

According to the Erd\H{o}s discrepancy conjecture, for any infinite $\pm 1$ sequence, there exists a homogeneous arithmetic progression of unbounded discrepancy. In other words, for any $\pm 1$ sequence $(x_1,x_2,...)$ and a discrepancy…

Let $\beta > 1$ be a real number and $(\epsilon_1(x, \beta), \epsilon_2(x, \beta), \ldots)$ be the $\beta$-expansion of a point $x \in (0, 1]$. For all $x \in (0,1]$, let $A(D(x))$ be the set of accumulation points of $\frac{-\log_\beta…

Consider the equation $q_1\alpha^{x_1}+\dots+q_k\alpha^{x_k} = q$, with constants $\alpha \in \overline{\mathbb{Q}} \setminus \{0,1\}$, $q_1,\ldots,q_k,q\in\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ and unknowns $x_1,\ldots,x_k$, referred to in this paper as…

Using a general $q$-series expansion, we derive some nontrivial $q$-formulas involving many infinite products. A multitude of Hecke--type series identities are derived. Some general formulas for sums of any number of squares are given. A…

We construct the base $2$ expansion of an absolutely normal real number $x$ so that, for every integer $b$ greater than or equal to $2$, the discrepancy modulo $1$ of the sequence $(b^0 x, b^1 x, b^2 x , \ldots)$ is essentially the same as…
