In this expository article, the real numbers are defined as infinite decimals. After defining an ordering relation and the arithmetic operations, it is shown that the set of real numbers is a complete ordered field. It is further shown that…
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 the present paper we construct normal numbers in base $q$ by concatenating $q$-ary expansions of pseudo polynomials evaluated at the primes. This extends a recent result by Tichy and the author.
We solve the boson normal ordering problem for F[(a*)^r a^s], with r,s positive integers, where a* and a are boson creation and annihilation operators satisfying [a,a*]=1. That is, we provide exact and explicit expressions for the normal…
In additive number theory, a finite set $A$ of integers is an $h$-basis for $n$ if every integer in $\{0,1,2,\ldots, n\}$ can be represented as the sum of exactly $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. This paper introduces a new…
Expansion of real numbers is a basic research topic in number theory. Usually we expand real numbers in one given base. In this paper, we begin to systematically study expansions in multiple given bases in a reasonable way, which is a…
A new definition of a real number is that it is a rule which says Yes or No based on whether the real number ought to be in a given rational interval. This is a teaser paper for formalizing, exploring, and generalizing this definition. The…
An algebraic integer is said large if all its real or complex embeddings have absolute value larger than $1$. An integral ideal is said \emph{large} if it admits a large generator. We investigate the notion of largeness, relating it to some…
Given a pure binomial ideal I in variables x_i, we define a new measure of the complexity of the saturation of I with respect to the product of the variables x_i, which we call the norm. We give a bound on the norm in terms of…
The Operator axioms have produced new real numbers with new operators. New operators naturally produce new equations and thus extend the traditional mathematical models which are selected to describe various scientific rules. So new…
A real number is a rule that, when provided with a rational interval, answers Yes or No depending on if the real number ought to be considered to be in the given interval. Since the goal is to define the real numbers, this can only motivate…
We use entropy rates and Schur concavity to prove that, for every integer k >= 2, every nonzero rational number q, and every real number alpha, the base-k expansions of alpha, q+alpha, and q*alpha all have the same finite-state dimension…
It is shown that the set of palindromes is an additive basis for the natural numbers in any base. Specifically, we prove that every natural number can be expressed as the sum of $O(d)$ palindromes in base $d$.
This short article is aimed at educators and teachers of mathematics.Its goal is simple and direct:to explore some of the basic/elementary properties of proper rational numbers.A proper rational number is a rational which is not an integer.…
Fix a sequence of integers $Q=\{q_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ such that $q_n$ is greater than or equal to 2 for all $n$. In this paper, we improve upon results by J. Galambos and F. Schweiger showing that almost every (in the sense of Lebesgue…
The induction principle for natural numbers expresses that when a property holds for some natural number a and is hereditary, then it holds for all numbers greater than or equal to a. We present a similar principle for real numbers.
We count the number of distinct (scattered) subwords occurring in the base-b expansion of the non-negative integers. More precisely, we consider the sequence $(S_b(n))_{n\ge 0}$ counting the number of positive entries on each row of a…
In 1970 A. Baker and W. Schmidt introduced regular systems of numbers and vectors, showing that the set of real algebraic numbers forms a regular system on any fixed interval. This fact was used to prove several important results in the…
Years ago Zeev Rudnick defined the ${\lambda}$-Poisson generic sequences as the infinite sequences of symbols in a finite alphabet where the number of occurrences of long words in the initial segments follow the Poisson distribution with…
In the classical sense, the set B consists of all integers which can be written as a sum of two perfect squares. In other words, these are the values attained by norms of integral ideals over the Gaussian field Q(i). G.J. Rieger (1965) and…
