Let $(f_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of polynomials and $\alpha>1$. In this paper we study the distribution of the sequence $(f_n(\alpha))_{n=1}^{\infty}$ modulo one. We give sufficient conditions for a sequence $(f_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$…
By a classical theorem of Koksma the sequence of fractional parts $(\{x^n\})_{n \geq 1}$ is uniformly distributed for almost all values of $x$. In the present paper we obtain an exact quantitative version of Koksma's theorem, by calculating…
Let $(x_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence on the torus $\mathbb{T}$ (normalized to length 1). We show that if there exists a sequence of positive real numbers $(t_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ converging to 0 such that $$\lim_{N \rightarrow \infty}{…
We establish the analogue of Khintchine's theorem for all self-similar probability measures on the real line. When specified to the case of the Hausdorff measure on the middle-thirds Cantor set, the result is already new and provides an…
A classical theorem of Koksma states that for Lebesgue almost every $x>1$ the sequence $(x^n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ is uniformly distributed modulo one. In the present paper we extend Koksma's theorem to the pair correlation setting. More…
The concept of uniform distribution in $[0,1]$ is extended for a certain strictly separated maximal (in the sense of cardinality) family $(\lambda_t)_{t \in [0,1]}$ of invariant extensions of the linear Lebesgue measure $\lambda$ in…
Koksma's equidistribution theorem from 1935 states that for Lebesgue almost every $\alpha>1$, the fractional parts of the geometric progression $(\alpha^{n})_{n\geq1}$ are equidistributed modulo one. In the present paper we sharpen this…
We prove a generalization of van der Corput's Difference Theorem in the theory of uniform distribution by establishing a connection with unitary operators that have Lebesgue spectrum. This allows us to show, for example, that if $(x_n)_{n =…
In this work, we prove the joint convergence in distribution of $q$ variables modulo one obtained as partial sums of a sequence of i.i.d. square integrable random variables multiplied by a common factor given by some function of an…
We study the distribution of sequences of the form $(q_ny)_{n=1}^\infty$, where $(q_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ is some increasing sequence of integers. In particular, we study the Lebesgue measure and find bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of the set…
We prove that if all shifts of a measure in the Euclidean space are close in a sense to each other, then this measure is close to the Lebesgue one.
Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}$ with cumulative distribution function $F$, $(x_{i})_{1}^{n}$ a large i.i.d. sample from $\mu$, and $F_{n}$ the associated empirical distribution function. The Glivenko-Cantelli theorem…
Let $(X,\mathfrak{B},\mu)$ be a Borel probability space. Let $T_n: X\rightarrow X$ be a sequence of continuous transformations on $X$. Let $\nu$ be a probability measure on $X$ such that $\frac{1}{N}\sum_{n=1}^N (T_n)_\ast \nu \rightarrow…
We give an extension of a criterion of van der Corput on uniform distribution of sequences. Namely, we prove that a sequence $x_n$ is uniformly distributed modulo 1 if it is weakly monotonic and satisfies the conditions $\Delta^2x_n\to…
In this paper, we consider a problem of counting rational points near self-similar sets. Let $n\geq 1$ be an integer. We shall show that for some self-similar measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$, the set of rational points $\mathbb{Q}^n$ is…
We consider an orthonormal basis of eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet Laplacian for a rational polygon. The modulus squared of the eigenfunctions defines a sequence of probability measures. We prove that this sequence contains a density-one…
In this paper, we study the following question raised by Mattila in 1998: what are the self-similar subsets of the middle-third Cantor set $\C$? We give criteria for a complete classification of all such subsets. We show that for any…
Let $\lambda(n)$ denote the exponent of the multiplicative group modulo $n$. We show that when $q$ is odd, each coprime residue class modulo $q$ is hit equally often by $\lambda(n)$ as $n$ varies. Under the stronger assumption that…
Self-similar solutions of the coherent diffusion equation are derived and measured. The set of real similarity solutions is generalized by the introduction of a nonuniform phase surface, based on the elegant Gaussian modes of optical…
