We consider the generalized Thue-Morse sequences $(t_n^{(c)})_{n\ge 0}$ ($c \in [0,1)$ being a parameter) defined by $t_n^{(c)} = e^{2\pi i c s_2(n)}$, where $s_2(n)$ is the sum of digits of the binary expansion of $n$. For the polynomials…
Let ${\mathbb F}_q$ be the finite field of $q$ elements, where $q=p^r$ is a power of the prime $p$, and $\left(\beta_1, \beta_2, \dots, \beta_r \right)$ be an ordered basis of ${\mathbb F}_q$ over ${\mathbb F}_p$. For…
For $q \geq 2$, $n \in \mathbb{N}$, let $s_{q}(n)$ denote the sum of the digits of $n$ written in base $q$. Spiegelhofer (2020) proved that the Thue--Morse sequence has level of distribution $1$, improving on a former result of Fouvry and…
The Thue--Morse sequence $t=01101001\cdots$ is an automatic sequence over the alphabet $\{0,1\}$. It can be defined as the binary sum-of-digits function $s:\mathbb N\rightarrow\mathbb N$, reduced modulo $2$, or by using the substitution…
Let $q, m\geq 2$ be integers with $(m,q-1)=1$. Denote by $s_q(n)$ the sum of digits of $n$ in the $q$-ary digital expansion. Further let $p(x)\in mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a polynomial of degree $h\geq 3$ with $p(\mathbb{N})\subset \mathbb{N}$. We…
The polynomial coefficient $\binom {n,q}{k}$ is defined to be the coefficient of $x^{k}$ in the expansion of $(1+x+x^2+... +x^{q-1})^n$. In this note we give an asymptotic estimate for $\binom {n,q}{cn}$ as $n$ tends to infinity, where $c$…
We introduce an ergodic approach to the study of {\em joint normality} of representations of numbers. For example, we show that for any integer $b \geq 2$ almost every number $x \in [0,1)$ is jointly normal with respect to the $b$-expansion…
In this paper, the logarithmically complete monotonicity property for a functions involving $q$-gamma function is investigated for $q\in(0,1).$ As applications of this results, some new inequalities for the $q$-gamma function are…
Let $w$ be any word over the alphabet $\{0,1,\ldots, q-1\}$, and denote by $h$ either a polynomial of degree $d\geq 1$ or $h: n\mapsto m^n$ for a fixed $m$. Furthermore, denote by $e_q(w;h(n))$ the number of occurrences of $w$ as a subword…
By examining asymptotic behavior of certain infinite basic ($q$-) hypergeometric sums at roots of unity (that is, at a "$q$-microscopic" level) we prove polynomial congruences for their truncations. The latter reduce to non-trivial…
We study the behavior of a polynomial sequence which is defined by iterating a polynomial pair under Thue-Morse dynamic. We show that in suitable sense, the sequence will behave like $\{2\cos 2^nx: n\ge 1\}$. Basing on this property we can…
We prove that the Thue--Morse sequence $\mathbf t$ along subsequences indexed by $\lfloor n^c\rfloor$ is normal, where $1<c<3/2$. That is, for $c$ in this range and for each $\omega\in\{0,1\}^L$, where $L\geq 1$, the set of occurrences of…
Let $s:[1,\infty) \to \C $ be a locally integrable function in Lebesgue's sense. The logarithmic (also called harmonic) mean of the function $s$ is defined by [\tau(t) := \frac 1{\log t} \int_1^t \frac {s(x)}{x} dx, \qquad t>1,] where the…
In this paper, we study the additive complexity $\rho^{+}_{\mathbf{t}}(n)$ of a Thue-Morse like sequence $\mathbf{t}=\sigma^{\infty}(0)$ with the morphism $\sigma: 0\to 01, 1\to 12, 2\to 20$. We show that…
Let $B$ be the set of odd integers that are sums of two coprime squares. We prove that the trigonometric polynomial $S(\alpha;N)=\sum_{b\in B,b\leq N} e(b\alpha)$ satisfies \[ \frac{S(\alpha; N)}{N/\sqrt{\log N}}<<_{A,A'} \frac{1}{\phi(q)}…
Let (t_n) be the classical Thue-Morse sequence defined by t_n = s_2(n) (mod 2), where s_2 is the sum of the bits in the binary representation of n. It is well known that for any integer k>=1 the frequency of the letter "1" in the…
Let $[q] = \{0,1,\ldots,q-1\}$, let $\Delta[q]$ denote the simplex of probability measures on $[q]$, and let $\gamma$ denote the Lebesgue measure normalized on $\Delta[q]$. We prove that for any symmetric monotone function $f \colon[q]^n…
Let $q$ be a positive integer. Consider an infinite word $\omega=w_0w_1w_2\cdots$ over an alphabet of cardinality $q$. A finite word $u$ is called an arithmetic factor of $\omega$ if $u=w_cw_{c+d}w_{c+2d}\cdots w_{c+(|u|-1)d}$ for some…
