The Erd\H{o}s primitive set conjecture states that the sum $f(A) = \sum_{a\in A}\frac{1}{a\log a}$, ranging over any primitive set $A$ of positive integers, is maximized by the set of prime numbers. Recently Laib, Derbal, and Mechik proved…

We establish sharp bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of sets of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose digits in the $N$-expansion are either uniformly bounded or tend to infinity. For sets with digits bounded by an integer $M \ge N$, we…

According to the Erd\H{o}s discrepancy conjecture, for any infinite $\pm 1$ sequence, there exists a homogeneous arithmetic progression of unbounded discrepancy. In other words, for any $\pm 1$ sequence $(x_1,x_2,...)$ and a discrepancy…

Numerical approximate computation can solve large and complex problems fast. It has the advantage of high efficiency. However it only gives approximate results, whereas we need exact results in many fields. There is a gap between…

We derive explicit asymptotic expansions of the density of the supremum of a strictly stable process when the index $\alpha$ is not rational. In the case when parameters $\alpha$ and $\rho=\p(X_1>0)$ satisfy $\rho+k=l/\alpha$ for some…

The \emph{index set} of a computable structure $\mathcal{A}$ is the set of indices for computable copies of $\mathcal{A}$. We determine the complexity of the index sets of various mathematically interesting structures, including arbitrary…

The Erd\H{o}s similarity conjecture asserted that an infinite set of real numbers cannot be affinely embedded into every measurable set of positive Lebesgue measure. The problem is still open, in particular for all fast decaying sequences.…

For $\lambda \in (1/2, 1)$ and $\alpha$, we consider sets of numbers $x$ such that for infinitely many $n$, $x$ is $2^{-\alpha n}$-close to some $\sum_{i=1}^n \omega_i \lambda^i$, where $\omega_i \in \{0,1\}$. These sets are in Falconer's…

We enhance the approximation capabilities of algebraic polynomials by composing them with homeomorphisms. This composition yields families of functions that remain dense in the space of continuous functions, while enabling more accurate…
