We consider irrational fixed points of the Minkowski question mark function $? (x)$, that is irrational solutions of the equation $? (x)=x$. It is easy to see that there exist at least two such points. Although it is not known if there are…
This paper gives the pointwise H\"older (or multifractal) spectrum of continuous functions on the interval $[0,1]$ whose graph is the attractor of an iterated function system consisting of $r\geq 2$ affine maps on $\mathbb{R}^2$. These…
Extensions of the $Stirling$ numbers of the second kind and $Dobinski$ -like formulas are proposed in a series of exercises for graduates. Some of these new formulas recently discovered by me are to be found in the source paper $ [1]$.…
Noting a curious link between Andrews' even-odd crank and the Stanley rank, we adopt a combinatorial approach building on the map of conjugation and continue the study of integer partitions with parts separated by parity. Our motivation is…
We study ordinary differential equations of the type $u^{(n)}(t)=f(u(t))$ with initial conditions $u(0) = u'(0) =... = u^{(m-1)}(0) = 0 $ and $u^{(m)}(0) \neq 0$ where $m \geq n$, no additional assumption is made on $f$. We establish some…
We generalize the classical Minkowski integral inequality to the form involving general Banach function norms.
In this note, we characterize the sharp boundary condition such that the fractional harmonic extensions with H\"older regularity up to the boundary is globally H\"older continuous. The proofs are based on estimates of fractional harmonic…
We propose and study a generalized continued fraction algorithm that can be executed in an arbitrary imaginary quadratic field, the novelty being a non-restriction to the five Euclidean cases. Many hallmark properties of classical continued…
In this paper we offer some new identities associated with mock theta functions and establish new Bailey pairs related to indefinite quadratic forms. We believe our proof is instructive use of changing base of Bailey pairs, and offers new…
The main result of this paper is, that if we suppose that a function is absolutely continuous and uniformly H\"older continuous and that its finite difference function does not oscillate infinitely often on a bounded interval, then the…
We show that two notions of continued fraction normality, one where overlapping occurrences of finite patterns are counted as distinct occurrences, and another where only disjoint occurrences are counted as distinct, are identical. This…
For $0 \leq \alpha < n$ and $m \in \mathbb{N} \cap \left(1 - \frac{\alpha}{n}, +\infty \right)$, we consider certain fractional type operators $T_{\alpha, m}$ generated by $m$-orthogonal matrices and prove that, for $0 < \alpha < n$,…
This paper investigates the quadratic irrationals that arise as periodic points of the Gauss type shift associated to the odd continued fraction expansion. It is shown that these numbers, which we call O-reduced, when ordered by the length…
We consider the integral and derivative operators of tempered fractional calculus, and examine their analytic properties. We discover connections with the classical Riemann-Liouville fractional calculus and demonstrate how the operators may…
A permutation is said to be cycle-alternating if it has no cycle double rises, cycle double falls or fixed points; thus each index $i$ is either a cycle valley ($\sigma^{-1}(i)>i<\sigma(i)$) or a cycle peak ($\sigma^{-1}(i)<i>\sigma(i)$).…
We study the Dirichlet problem for functions whose graphs are spacelike hypersurfaces with prescribed curvature in the Minkowski space and we obtain some new interior second order estimates for admissible solutions to the corresponding…
We ask, for which $n$ does there exists a $k$, $1 \leq k < n$ and $(k,n)=1$, so that $k/n$ has a continued fraction whose partial quotients are bounded in average by a constant $B$? This question is intimately connected with several other…
In this paper we study the dual Orlicz-Minkowski problem, which is a generalization of the dual Minkowski problem in convex geometry. By considering a geometric flow involving Gauss curvature and functions of normal vectors and radial…
