In this article we investigate different forms of multiplicative independence between the sequences $n$ and $\lfloor n \alpha \rfloor$ for irrational $\alpha$. Our main theorem shows that for a large class of arithmetic functions $a, b…

We introduce a multidimensional walk with memory and random tendency. The asymptotic behaviour is characterized, proving a law of large numbers and showing a phase transition from diffusive to superdiffusive regimes. In first case, we…

In a recent paper we proposed a non-Markovian random walk model with memory of the maximum distance ever reached from the starting point (home). The behavior of the walker is at variance with respect to the simple symmetric random walk…

Let $A$ be a set of natural numbers and let $S_{n,A}$ be the set of all permutations of $[n]=\{1,2,...,n\}$ with cycle lengths belonging to $A$. Furthermore, let $\mid A(n)\mid$ denote the cardinality of the set $A(n)=A\cap [n]$. The limit…

In this paper we study the mean values of some multiplicative functions connected with the divisor function on the short interval of summation. The asymptocic values for such mean values are proved.

We consider in this paper subdiffusion in a system with a thin membrane. The subdiffusion parameters are the same in both parts of the system separated by the membrane. Using the random walk model with discrete time and space variables the…

In a recent paper (Tran et al., Ann.Phys.311(2004)204), some asymptotic number theoretical results on the partitioning of an integer were derived exploiting its connection to the quantum density of states of a many-particle system. We…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the critical density of the activated random walk model as the sleep rate $\lambda$ tends to $0$ and $\infty$. For large $\lambda$, we prove new lower bounds in dimensions 1 and 2, showing that in one…

We define the asymptotic behavior "almost everywhere" of additive and multiplicative arithmetic functions in the paper. Classes of additive and multiplicative arithmetic functions are singled out for which the asymptotics coincides "almost…

We prove that if $f(n)$ is a Steinhaus or Rademacher random multiplicative function, there almost surely exist arbitrarily large values of $x$ for which $|\sum_{n \leq x} f(n)| \geq \sqrt{x} (\log\log x)^{1/4+o(1)}$. This is the first such…

Fix $\delta\in(0,1]$, $\sigma_0\in[0,1)$ and a real-valued function $\varepsilon(x)$ for which $\limsup_{x\to\infty}\varepsilon(x)\le 0$. For every set of primes ${\mathcal P}$ whose counting function $\pi_{\mathcal P}(x)$ satisfies an…

We analyze the asymptotic behavior of random variables $x(n,x\_0)$ defined by $x(0,x\_0)=x\_0$ and $x(n+1,x\_0)=A(n)x(n,x\_0)$, where $\sAn$ is a stationary and ergodic sequence of random matrices with entries in the semi-ring…

We prove a new equidistribution estimate for the divisor function in arithmetic progression to moduli that have two small factors. We give two applications. First, we show an asymptotic formula for the divisor function over arithmetic…

A set ${\cal A} \subseteq \Set{1,...,N}$ is of type $B_2$ if all sums $a+b$, with $a\ge b$, $a,b\in {\cal A}$, are distinct. It is well known that the largest such set is of size asymptotic to $N^{1/2}$. For a $B_2$ set ${\cal A}$ of this…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb C$, and let $P_n$ be the random polynomial whose zeros are sampled independently from $\mu$. We study the asymptotic distribution of zeros of high-order derivatives of $P_n$. We show that, for…

Recently, Hirschhorn and the first author considered the parity of the function $a(n)$ which counts the number of integer partitions of $n$ wherein each part appears with odd multiplicity. They derived an effective characterization of the…

The denominators $d_n$ of the harmonic number $1+\frac12+\frac13+\cdots+\frac1n$ do not increase monotonically with~$n$. It is conjectured that $d_n=D_n={\rm LCM}(1,2,\ldots,n)$ infinitely often. For an odd prime $p$, the set…
