We propose a reformulation of the ideal $\mathcal{N}$ of Lebesgue measure zero sets of reals modulo an ideal $J$ on $\omega$, which we denote by $\mathcal{N}_J$. In the same way, we reformulate the ideal $\mathcal{E}$ generated by…
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…
Let $n, m$ be positive integers, $n\geq m$. We make several remarks on the relationship between approximate differentiability of higher order and Morse-Sard properties. For instance, among other things we show that if a function…
Let $\lbrace f_i(x)=s_i \cdot x+t_i \rbrace$ be a self-similar IFS on $\mathbb{R}$ and let $\beta >1$ be a Pisot number. We prove that if $\frac{\log |s_i|}{\log \beta}\notin \mathbb{Q}$ for some $i$ then for every $C^1$ diffeomorphism $g$…
We consider \textit{additive spaces}, consisting of two intervals of unit length or two general probability measures on ${\mathbb R}^1$, positioned on the axes in ${\mathbb R}^2$, with a natural additive measure $\rho$. We study the…
A subset of a topological space is said to be \emph{universally measurable} if it is measured by the completion of each countably additive $\sigma$-finite Borel measure on the space, and \emph{universally null} if it has measure zero for…
A survey is given of the work on strong regularity for uniform algebras over the last thirty years, and some new results are proved, including the following. Let A be a uniform algebra on a compact space X and let E be the set of all those…
We consider sets of reals $X$ endowed with the Sorgenfrey lower limit topology denoted $X[\leq]$. Przymusi\'nski proved that if $X$ is a $Q$-set then $(X[\leq])^2$ is normal. While the converse is not in general true we consider examples of…
R.D.Mauldin asked if every translation invariant $\sigma$-finite Borel measure on $\RR^d$ is a constant multiple of Lebesgue measure. The aim of this paper is to show that the answer is "yes and no", since surprisingly the answer depends on…
Let $\beta > 1$ be a real number and $x \in [0,1)$ be an irrational number. We denote by $k_n(x)$ the exact number of partial quotients in the continued fraction expansion of $x$ given by the first $n$ digits in the $\beta$-expansion of $x$…
The classical Brauer-Siegel theorem states that if $k$ runs through the sequence of normal extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ such that $n_k/\log|D_k|\to 0,$ then $\log h_k R_k/\log \sqrt{|D_k|}\to 1.$ First, in this paper we obtain the…
It was conjectured by Furstenberg that for any $x\in [0,1]\backslash Q$, $$ \dim_H \bar{\{2^nx ({\text{mod}}\ 1): n\ge 1\}}+ \dim_H \bar{\{3^nx ({\text{mod}}\ 1): n\ge 1\}}\ge 1. $$ When $x$ is a normal number, the above result holds…
A rationality condition is derived for the existence of odd perfect numbers involving the square root of a product, which consists of a sequence of repunits, multiplied by twice the base of one of the repunits. This constraint also provides…
In this paper we study correlation measures introduced in \cite{emme_asymptotic_2017}. Denote by $\mu_a(d)$ the asymptotic density of the set $\mathcal{E}_{a,d}=\{n \in \mathbb{N}, \ s_2(n+a)-s_2(n)=d\}$ (where $s_2$ is the sum-of-digits…
Mordechay B. Levin has constructed a number $\lambda$ which is normal in base 2, and such that the sequence $(\left\{2^n \lambda\right\})_{n=0,1,2,\ldots}$ has very small discrepancy $D_N$. Indeed we have $N\cdot D_N = \mathcal{O}…
Given an integer $b\geqslant 2$ and a set $P$ of prime numbers, the set $T_P $ of Toeplitz numbers comprises all elements of $[0,b[$ whose digits $(a_n)_{n\geqslant 1}$ in the base-$b$ expansion satisfy $a_n=a_{pn}$ for all $p\in P$ and…
It is well known that if $0.a_1a_2a_3\dots$ is the base-$b$ expansion of a number normal to base-$b$, then the numbers $0.a_ka_{m+k}a_{2m+k}\dots$ for $m\ge 2$, $k\ge 1$ are all normal to base-$b$ as well. In contrast, given a continued…
We show that if n>1 then there exists a Lebesgue null set in R^n containing a point of differentiability of each Lipschitz function mapping from R^n to R^(n-1); in combination with the work of others, this completes the investigation of…
Fix an irrational number $\theta$. For a real number $\tau >0$, consider the numbers $y$ satisfying that for all large number $Q$, there exists an integer $1\leq n\leq Q$, such that $\|n\theta-y\|<Q^{-\tau}$, where $\|\cdot\|$ is the…
For the ordinary differential equation (ODE) $\dot{x}(t) = f(t,x)$, $x(0) = x_0$, $t\geq 0$, $x\in R^d$, assume $f$ to be at least continuous in $t$ and locally Lipshitz in $x$, and if necessary, several times continuously differentiable in…
