In arXiv:1812.00170, S. Morier-Genoud and V. Ovsienko introduced the notion of the $q$-rational number $[x]_q$, $x\in \Bbb Q$, a rational function specializing to $x$ at $q=1$, obtained by $q$-deforming the continued fraction expansion of…

In the present note we study the interrelations between the sets of so-called typical numbers and numbers that are normal in base two. Employing results by Nakai and Shiokawa, we exhibit examples of numbers that belong to one set but do not…

The Cantor pairing polynomials are extended to larger 2D sub-domains and more complex mapping, of which the most important property is the bijectivity. If corners are involved inside (but not the borders of) domain, more than one connected…

For any positive integer $p\geq 3$, let $A$ be a proper subset of $\{0,1,\ldots, p-1\}$ with $\sharp A=s\geq 2$. Suppose $h: \{0,1,\ldots,s-1\}\to A$ is a one-to-one map which is strictly increasing with $A=\{h(0),h(1),\ldots,h(s-1)\}$. We…

For $q>1$ we consider expansions in base $q$ over the alphabet $\{0,1,q\}$. Let $\mathcal{U}_q$ be the set of $x$ which have a unique $q$-expansions. For $k=2, 3,\cdots,\aleph_0$ let $\mathcal{B}_k$ be the set of bases $q$ for which there…

In 1994, John Cobb asked: given $N>m>k>0$, does there exist a Cantor set in $\mathbb R^N$ such that each of its projections into $m$-planes is exactly $k$-dimensional? Such sets were described for $(N,m,k)=(2,1,1)$ by L.Antoine (1924) and…

We explore in depth the number theoretic and statistical properties of certain sets of numbers arising from their Cantor series expansions. As a direct consequence of our main theorem we deduce numerous new results as well as strengthen…

This article critically reappraises arguments in support of Cantor's theory of transfinite numbers. The following results are reported: i) Cantor's proofs of nondenumerability are refuted by analyzing the logical inconsistencies in…

We introduce the concept of Minkowski normality, a different type of normality for the regular continued fraction expansion. We use the ordering \[ \frac{1}{2},\quad \frac{1}{3}, \frac{2}{3},\quad \frac{1}{4}, \frac{3}{4},\frac{2}{5},…

In \cite{SchmidtGames}, W. Schmidt proved that the set of non-normal numbers in base $b$ is a {\it winning set}. We generalize this result by proving that many sets of non-normal numbers with respect to the Cantor series expansion are…

We define and study distributions in R^{d} that we call q-Normal. For q=1 they are really multidimensional Normal, for q\in(-1,1) they have densities, compact support and many properties that resemble properties of ordinary multidimensional…

A separator is a countable dense subset of $[0,1)$, and a separator enumerator is a naming scheme that assigns a real number in $[0,1)$ to each finite word so that the set of all named values is a separator. Mayordomo introduced separator…

Berry and Tabor conjectured in 1977 that spectra of generic integrable quantum systems have the same local statistics as a Poisson point process. We verify their conjecture in the case of the two-point spectral density for a quantum…

We show that the set of numbers that are $Q$-distribution normal but not simply $Q$-ratio normal has full Hausdorff dimension. It is further shown under some conditions that countable intersections of sets of this form still have full…

We outline some simple prescriptions to define a distribution on the set $\mathbb{Q}_0$ of all the rational numbers in $[0,1]$, and we then explore both a few properties of these distributions, and the possibility of making these rational…

It was discovered some years ago that there exist non-integer real numbers $q>1$ for which only one sequence $(c_i)$ of integers $c_i \in [0,q)$ satisfies the equality $\sum_{i=1}^\infty c_iq^{-i}=1$. The set of such "univoque numbers" has…
