We show that for a fixed integer $n \neq \pm2$, the congruence $x^2 + nx \pm 1 \equiv 0 \pmod{\alpha}$ has the solution $\beta$ with $0 < \beta < \alpha$ if and only if $\alpha/\beta$ has a continued fraction expansion with sequence of…

A matching prior at level $1-\alpha$ is a prior such that an associated $1-\alpha$ credible set is also a $1-\alpha$ confidence set. We study the existence of matching priors for general families of credible regions. Our main result gives…

In this paper, we study the Diophantine properties of the orbits of a fixed point in its expansions under continuum many bases. More precisely, let $T_{\beta}$ be the beta-transformation with base $\beta>1$, $\{x_{n}\}_{n\geq 1}$ be a…

This paper deals with the set of $\alpha\in{\mathbb{R}}$ such that $\alpha \zeta^{n} \bmod 1$ tends to $0$ for a fixed $\zeta\in{\mathbb{R}}$, which we call $\mathscr{M}_{\zeta}$. Predominately the case of Pisot numbers $\zeta$ is studied.…

We study a one-parameter family of interval maps $\{T_\alpha\}_{\alpha\in[1,\beta]}$, with $\beta$ the golden mean, defined on $[-1,1]$ by $T_\alpha(x)=\beta^{1+|t|}x-t\beta\alpha$ where $t\in\{-1,0,1\}$. For each $T_\alpha,\ \alpha>1$, we…

Let $\beta_1,\beta_2>1$ and $T_i(x,y) = \bigl(\frac{x+i}{\beta_1}, \frac{y+i}{\beta_2}\bigr),\ i\in\{\pm1\}$. Let $A := A_{\beta_1, \beta_2}$ be the unique compact set satisfying $A = T_{1}(A) \cup T_{-1}(A)$. In this paper we give a…

We consider certain parametrised families of piecewise expanding maps on the interval, and estimate and sometimes calculate the Hausdorff dimension of the set of parameters for which the orbit of a fixed point has a certain shrinking target…

Let $S_{n}$ denote the set of permutations of $[n]=\{1,2,\dots, n\}$. For each integer $k\geq 1$, let $S_{n,k}$ be the set of all permutations of $[n]$ with exactly $k$ disjoint cycles. A subset $H\subseteq S_{n,k}$ is to be a matching if…

We present a study of the problem of finiteness of the $\beta$-expansions for the set of natural numbers, condition $F_1$ in brief, for three families of Pisot numbers for which the $\beta$-expansion of 1 is not a non-decreasing sequence.…

We prove that if $\alpha\in (0,1/2]$, then the packing dimension of a set $E\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ for which there exists a set of lines of dimension $1$ intersecting $E$ in dimension $\ge \alpha$ is at least $1/2+\alpha+c(\alpha)$ for some…

We prove that almost all real numbers (with respect to Lebesgue measure) are approximated by the convergents of their $\beta$-expansions with the exponential order $\beta^{-n}$. Moreover, the Hausdorff dimensions of sets of the real numbers…

Let $b\geq 2$ be an integer and $\hv$ a real number. Among other results, we compute the Hausdorff dimension of the set of real numbers $\xi$ with the property that, for every sufficiently large integer $N$, there exists an integer $n$ such…

Given an integer $N\ge 2$ and a real number ${\beta}>1$, let $\Gamma_{{\beta},N}$ be the set of all $x=\sum_{i=1}^\infty {d_i}/{{\beta}^i}$ with $d_i\in\{0,1,\cdots,N-1\}$ for all $i\ge 1$. The infinite sequence $(d_i)$ is called a…

We consider a class of simple one parameter families of interval maps, and we study how metric (resp. topological) entropy changes as the parameter varies. We show that in many cases the entropy displays a semi-regular behaviour, i.e. it is…

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…

We show that, for any $0<\gamma<1/2$, any $(\alpha,\beta)\in\mathbb{R}^2$ except on a set with Hausdorff dimension about $\sqrt{\gamma}$, any small $0<\varepsilon<1$ and any large $N\in\mathbb{N}$, the number of integers $n\in[1,N]$ such…

Generalising a construction of Falconer, we consider classes of $G_\delta$-subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with the property that sets belonging to the class have large Hausdorff dimension and the class is closed under countable intersections. We…

We show that every intermediate $\beta$-transformation is topologically conjugate to a greedy $\beta$-transformation with a hole at zero, and provide a counterexample illustrating that the correspondence is not one-to-one. This…

We give conditions on a general family $P_{\lambda}:\R^n\to\R^m, \lambda \in \Lambda,$ of orthogonal projections which guarantee that the Hausdorff dimension formula $\dim A\cap P_{\lambda}^{-1}\{u\}=s-m$ holds generically for measurable…

The NP-complete Permutation Pattern Matching problem asks whether a permutation P (the pattern) can be matched into a permutation T (the text). A matching is an order-preserving embedding of P into T. In the Generalized Permutation Pattern…
