We prove independence of normality to different bases We show that the set of real numbers that are normal to some base is Sigma^0_4 complete in the Borel hierarchy of subsets of real numbers. This was an open problem, initiated by…
For a partially ordered set $(S, \mathord\preceq)$, the order (monotone) dimension is the minimum cardinality of total orders (respectively, real-valued order monotone functions) on $S$ that characterize the order $\preceq$. In this paper…
W.M.Schmit[11] conjectured that for any$\;\theta$ with deg$\;\theta\geq 3,$ there is no constant$\;C=C(\theta)$ so that$\;|p-q\theta|>Cq^{-1}$ for every rationa$\;p/q.$ [12,p26] states that the computations of the first several thousand…
The structural characterization of high-dimensional mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) by classifying MUBs subsets remains a major open problem. The existing methods not only fail to conclude on the exact classification, but also are severely…
New partial results are obtained related to the following old problem of Erd\"os: for any infinite set $X$ of real numbers to show that there is always a measurable (or, equivalently, closed) subset of reals of positive Lebesgue measure…
The presence of large partial quotients can invalidate many classical limit theorems in the metric theory of continued fractions. A commonly employed strategy to overcome this problem is to discard the largest partial quotient when…
Let $\xi$ be a real irrational number. We are interested in sequences of linear forms in 1 and $\xi$, with integer coefficients, which tend to 0. Does such a sequence exist such that the linear forms are small (with given rate of decrease)…
Given a pointed metric space $M$, we study when there exist $n$-dimensional linear subspaces of $\operatorname{Lip}_0(M)$ consisting of strongly norm-attaining Lipschitz functionals, for $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We show that this is always the…
The multiplicative theory of a set of numbers (which could be natural, integer, rational, real or complex numbers) is the first-order theory of the structure of that set with (solely) the multiplication operation (that set is taken to be…
This paper develops the theory of pushdown dimension and explores its relationship with finite-state dimension. Pushdown dimension is trivially bounded above by finite-state dimension for all sequences, since a pushdown gambler can simulate…
Let $\psi:\mathbb R_+\to\mathbb R_+$ be a non-increasing function. A real number $x$ is said to be $\psi$-Dirichlet improvable if the system $$|qx-p|< \, \psi(t) \ \ {\text{and}} \ \ |q|<t$$ has a non-trivial integer solution for all large…
We extend results of Videla and Fukuzaki to define algebraic integers in large classes of infinite algebraic extensions of Q and use these definitions for some of the fields to show the first-order undecidability. We also obtain a…
The Erd\H{o}s similarity conjecture asserted that an infinite set of real numbers cannot be affinely embedded into every measurable set of positive Lebesgue measure. The problem is still open, in particular for all fast decaying sequences.…
For a nonincreasing function $\psi$, let $\textrm{Exact}(\psi)$ be the set of complex numbers that are approximable by complex rational numbers to order $\psi$ but to no better order. In this paper, we obtain the Hausdorff dimension and…
Some aspects of the development of physics and the mathematics set one think about relation between complex numbers and reality around us. If number to spot as the relation of two quantities, from the fact of existence of complex numbers…
\textit{Let $E$ be an infinite set on which a property $(\bf P)$ is defined. Suppose that $E=\cup_{i\in I} E_i$ is a partition, where each $E_i$ is infinite. Suppose also that, in each $E_i$, the number of elements satisfying $(\bf P)$ is…
We prove that every real number in [0,1] is the Hausdorff dimension of a Hamel basis of the vector space of reals over the field of rationals. The logic of our proof is of particular interest. The statement of our theorem is classical; it…
This paper extends earlier work on the distribution in the complex plane of the roots of random polynomials. In this paper, the random polynomials are generalized to random finite sums of given "basis" functions. The basis functions are…
In 1969, H. Davenport and W. M. Schmidt studied the problem of approximation to a real number \xi by algebraic integers of degree at most three. They did so, using geometry of numbers, by resorting to the dual problem of finding…
In the base phi expansion any natural number is written uniquely as a sum of powers of the golden mean with coefficients 0 and 1, where it is required that the product of two consecutive digits is always 0. We tackle the problem of…
