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…
Motivated by the notions of $k$-extendability and complete extendability of the state of a finite level quantum system as described by Doherty et al (Phys. Rev. A, 69:022308), we introduce parallel definitions in the context of Gaussian…
Several important measures of quantum correlations of a state of a finite-dimensional composite system are defined as linear combinations of marginal entropies of this state. This paper is devoted to the infinite-dimensional generalizations…
In this paper, we show that the concatenation of the Fibonacci sequence is \textit{normal} in base $10$, meaning every string of a given length, $k$, occurs as frequently as every other string of length $k$ (there are as many $1$'s as $2$'s…
A Trott number is a number $x\in(0,1)$ whose continued fraction expansion is equal to its base $b$ expansion for a given base $b$, in the following sense: If $x=[0;a_1,a_2,\dots]$, then $x=(0.\hat{a}_1\hat{a}_2\dots)_b$, where $\hat{a}_i$…
The classical Hausdorff dimension of finite or countable sets is zero. We define an analog for finite sets, called finite Hausdorff dimension which is non-trivial. It turns out that a finite bound for the finite Hausdorff dimension…
The $\epsilon$-logic (which is called $\epsilon$E-logic in this paper) of Kuyper and Terwijn is a variant of first order logic with the same syntax, in which the models are equipped with probability measures and in which the $\forall x$…
Weakly almost i.i.d. quantum sources are sequences of multipartite states whose fixed-size marginals converge, on average, to tensor powers of a reference state, while allowing arbitrary global correlations and entanglement. We establish…
We generalize the classical theorem by Jarnik and Besicovitch on the irrationality exponents of real numbers and Hausdorff dimension. Let a be any real number greater than or equal to 2 and let b be any non-negative real less than or equal…
James Maynard has taken the analytic number theory world by storm in the last decade, proving several important and surprising theorems, resolving questions that had seemed far out of reach. He is perhaps best known for his work on small…
A set of mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) is said to be unextendible if there does not exist another basis that is unbiased with respect to the given set. Here, we prove the existence of smaller sets of MUBs in prime-squared dimensions…
Copeland and Erd\H{o}s showed that the concatenation of primes when written in base $10$ yields a real number that is normal to base $10$. We generalize this result to Pisot number bases in which all integers have finite expansion.
We study some variants of the Erd\H{o}s similarity problem. We pose the question if every measurable subset of the real line with positive measure contains a similar copy of an infinite geometric progression. We construct a compact subset…
The phenomenon of superconvergence is proved for all freely infinitely divisible distributions. Precisely, suppose that the partial sums of a sequence of free identically distributed, infinitesimal random variables converge in distribution…
Sidorov and Vershik showed that in base $G=\frac{\sqrt{5}+1}{2}$ and with the digits $0,1$ the numbers $x=nG ~(\text {mod} 1)$ have $\aleph_{0}$ expansions for any $n\in\mathbb{Z}$, while the other elements of $(0, \frac{1}{G-1})$ have…
In a base phi representation a natural number is written as a sum of powers of the golden mean $\varphi$. There are many ways to do this. How many? Even if the number of powers of $\varphi$ is finite, then any number has infinitely many…
The paper introduces the notion of the size of countable sets that preserves the Part-Whole Principle and generalizes the notion of the cardinality of finite sets. The sizes of natural numbers, integers, rational numbers, and all their…
Let $\xi$ be a real number and $b \ge 2$ an integer. We study the relationship between the irrationality exponent of $\xi$ and the subword complexity $p(n, \mathbf{x})$ of the $b$-ary expansion $\mathbf{x}$ of $\xi$, where $p(n,…
In dimension $d$, Mutually Unbiased Bases (MUBs) are a collection of orthonormal bases over $\mathbb{C}^d$ such that for any two vectors $v_1, v_2$ belonging to different bases, the scalar product $|\braket{v_1|v_2}| = \frac{1}{\sqrt{d}}$.…
We obtain the first positive results for bounded sample compression in the agnostic regression setting with the $\ell_p$ loss, where $p\in [1,\infty]$. We construct a generic approximate sample compression scheme for real-valued function…
