Kinetic processes in fractal stellar media are analysed in terms of the approach developed in our earlier paper (Chumak \& Rastorguev, 2015) involving a generalization of the nearest neighbour and random force distributions to fractal…

We prove some weighted Fourier restriction estimates using polynomial partitioning and refined Strichartz estimates. As application we obtain improved spherical average decay rates of the Fourier transform of fractal measures, and therefore…

Let w be a binary string and let a_w (n) be the number of occurrences of the word w in the binary expansion of n. As usual we let s(n) denote the Stern sequence; that is, s(0)=0, s(1)=1, and for n >= 1, s(2n)=s(n) and s(2n+1)=s(n)+s(n+1).…

Let $k\ge d\ge 3$ be fixed. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a $k$-uniform family on $[n]$. Then $\mathcal{F}$ is $(d,s)$-conditionally intersecting if it does not contain $d$ sets with union of size at most $s$ and empty intersection. Answering a…

Fractals and quasiperiodic structures share self-similarity as a structural property. Motivated by the link between Fibonacci fractals and quasicrystals which are scaled by the golden mean ratio $\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}$, we introduce and…

Let $(s_2(n))_{n=0}^\infty$ denote Stern's diatomic sequence. For $n\geq 2$, we may view $s_2(n)$ as the number of partitions of $n-1$ into powers of $2$ with each part occurring at most twice. More generally, for integers $b,n\geq 2$, let…

The boundaries of central place models proved to be fractal lines, which compose fractal texture of central place networks. A textural fractal can be employed to explain the scale-free property of regional boundaries such as border lines,…

Stern's diatomic series, denoted by $(a(n))_{n \geq 0}$, is defined by the recurrence relations $a(2n) = a(n)$ and $a(2n + 1) = a(n) + a(n + 1)$ for $n \geq 1$, and initial values $a(0) = 0$ and $a(1) = 1$. A record-setter for a sequence…

We compute the quantum fluctuations of a 3-brane with tension, energy density and stiffness. As a result of the fluctuations there are induced forces between massive objects living on the brane. We study various limiting cases of the…

Take any $d + 3$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. It is known that (a) if $d = 2k + 1$, then there are two linked $(k + 1)$-simplices with the vertices at these points; (b) if $d = 2k$, then there are two disjoint $(k + 1)$-tuples of these points…

The determination of the cross correlation between an $m$-sequence and its decimated sequence has been a long-standing research problem. Considering a ternary $m$-sequence of period $3^{3r}-1$, we determine the cross correlation…

Let A be a subset of the real line. We study the fractal dimensions of the k-fold iterated sumsets kA, defined as kA = A+...+A (k times). We show that for any non-decreasing sequence {a_k} taking values in [0,1], there exists a compact set…

We consider an optical diffraction grating in which the spatial distribution of open slits forms a fractal set. The Fraunhofer diffraction patterns through the fractal grating are obtained analytically for the simplest triad Cantor type and…

The Stern-Brocot tree and Minkowki's question mark function $?(x)$ (or Conway's box function) are related to the continued fraction expansion of numbers from Q with unary encoding of the partial denominators. We first define binary…

Considered is the distribution of the crosscorrelation between $m$-sequences of length $2^m-1$, where $m=2k$, and $m$-sequences of shorter length $2^k-1$. New pairs of $m$-sequences with three-valued crosscorrelation are found and the…

We introduce several classes of pseudorandom sequences which represent a natural extension of classical methods in random number generation. The sequences are obtained from constructions on labeled binary trees, generalizing the well-known…

The theory of measured foliations which is discussed in PartI(hep-th/9901040) in connection with train tracks and meanders is shown to be related to the theory of Jenkins-Strebel quadratic differentials by Hubbard and Masur (Acta…

In a recent paper, Roland Bacher conjectured three identities concerning Stern's sequence and its twist. In this paper we prove Bacher's conjectures. Possibly of independent interest, we also give a way to compute the Stern value (or…

The average genus of a 2-bridge knot with crossing number $c$ approaches $\frac{c}{4} + \frac{1}{12}$ as $c$ approaches infinity, as proven by Suzuki and Tran and independently Cohen and Lowrance. In this paper, for the genera of $2$-bridge…
