We show by a constructive proof that in all aperiodic dynamical system, for all sequences $(a_n)_{n\in\N}\subset\R_+$ such that $a_n\nearrow\infty$ and $\frac{a_n}{n}\to 0$ as $n\to\infty$, there exists a set $A\in\A$ having the property…
We consider the typical asymptotic behaviour of cellular automata of higher dimension (greater than 2). That is, we take an initial configuration at random according to a Bernoulli (i.i.d) probability measure, iterate some cellular…
In graph theory, the Szemer\'edi regularity lemma gives a decomposition of the indicator function for any graph $G$ into a structured component, a uniform part, and a small error. This result, in conjunction with a counting lemma that…
We investigate which infinite binary sequences (reals) are effectively random with respect to some continuous (i.e., non-atomic) probability measure. We prove that for every n, all but countably many reals are n-random for such a measure,…
Let $s\_2(x)$ denote the number of digits "$1$" in a binary expansion of any $x \in \mathbb{N}$. We study the mean distribution $\mu\_a$ of the quantity $s\_2(x+a)-s\_2(x)$ for a fixed positive integer $a$.It is shown that solutions of the…
Let $\mathbf{x}$ be a (non-empty) sequence of positive real numbers. Its achievement set $\mathcal{\mathbf{x}}$ is the set of all the possible sums of the elements of $\mathbf{x}$. The cardinal function of $\mathbf{x}$ is the function…
The generalized Ces\`aro operators $C_t$, for $t\in [0,1]$, were first investigated in the 1980's. They act continuously in many classical Banach sequence spaces contained in $\mathbb{C}^{\mathbb{N}_0}$, such as $\ell^p$, $c_0$, $c$,…
The asymptotic behavior of a cellular automaton iterated on a random configuration is well described by its limit probability measure(s). In this paper, we characterize measures and sets of measures that can be reached as limit points after…
In this survey we summarize properties of pseudorandomness and non-randomness of some number-theoretic sequences and present results on their behaviour under the following measures of pseudorandomness: balance, linear complexity,…
In a recent post on the Seqfan list the third author proposed a conjecture concerning the summatory function of odious numbers (i.e., of numbers whose sum of binary digits is odd), and its analog for evil numbers (i.e., of numbers whose sum…
Within the gossamer numbers which extend the real numbers to include infinitesimals and infinities we prove the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC). Riemann sums are also considered in the gossamer number system, and their non-uniqueness…
The sequence A000975 in OEIS can be defined by $A_1=1$, $A_{n+1}=2A_n$ if $n$ is odd, and $A_{n+1}=2A_n+1$ if $n$ is even. This sequence satisfies other recurrence relations, admits some closed formulas, and is known to enumerate several…
Given a one-dimensional shift $X$, let $|F_X(\ell)|$ be the number of follower sets of words of length $\ell$ in $X$. We call the sequence $\{|F_X(\ell)|\}_{\ell \in \mathbb{N}}$ the follower set sequence of the shift $X$. Extender sets are…
Motivated by the study of the distribution of zeros of generalized Bessel-type functions, the principal goal of this paper is to identify new research directions in the theory of multiplier sequences. The investigations focus on multiplier…
In this thesis, the main objects of study are probability measures on the isomorphism classes of countable, connected rooted graphs. An important class of such measures is formed by unimodular measures, which satisfy a certain equation,…
The composition $\mathcal{F} \circ \mathcal{G}$ of two combinatorial classes $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{G}$ is a standard combinatorial construction and translates into the composition $F(G(z))$ of their corresponding counting generating…
In this paper, we introduce and investigate the notion of the Ces\'aro operator $C_{\mathscr T}$ on a rooted directed tree $\mathscr T.$ When $\mathscr T$ is the rooted tree with no branching vertex, then $C_{\mathscr T}$ is unitarily…
The idea of this paper is to explore the existence of canonical countably saturated models for different classes of structures. It is well-known that, under CH, there exists a unique countably saturated linear order of cardinality…
In this paper we extensively investigate the class of conditionally positive definite operators, namely operators generating conditionally positive definite sequences. This class itself contains subnormal operators, $2$- and $3$-isometries…
This paper studies when a sequence of probability measures on a metric space admit subsequential weak limits. A sufficient condition called sequential tightness is formulated, which relaxes some assumptions for asymptotic tightness used in…
