Motivated by results on generic-case complexity in group theory, we apply the ideas of effective Baire category and effective measure theory to study complexity classes of functions which are "fractionally computable" by a partial…
The importance of fractional time-derivative to take care of memory effects has been brought out by considering the example of a simple oscillator.
We put forward several general conjectures concerning the algebraicity or transcendence of continued fractions and Stieltjes continued fractions defined by the Thue-Morse and period-doubling sequences in characteristic $2$. We present our…
The presence of the power-law memory is a significant feature of many natural (biological, physical, etc.) and social systems. Continuous and discrete fractional calculus is the instrument to describe the behavior of systems with the…
In this paper we study the integrals of fractional parts of given functions, and develop some new tools to understand the behaviour of prime differences. We demonstrate how simply some seemingly difficult conjectures related to prime…
A new method is presented for the simplification of loop integrals in one particle irreducible diagrams with large numbers of external lines, based on the partial fractioning of products of propagators. Whenever a loop diagram in $d$…
Fractional scoring has been proposed to avoid inconsistencies in the attribution of publications to percentile rank classes. Uncertainties and ambiguities in the evaluation of percentile ranks can be demonstrated most easily with small…
We build, for real quadratic fields, infinitely many periodic continuous fractions uniformly bounded, with a seemingly better bound than the known ones. We do that using continuous fraction expansions with the same shape as those of real…

Using the Mellin transform approach, it is shown that, in contrast with integer-order derivatives, the fractional-order derivative of a periodic function cannot be a function with the same period. The three most widely used definitions of…
This paper revisits the notion of classical orthogonal polynomials from a broader functional-analytic point of view. It is intended neither as a survey of known results nor as a review of the literature, but rather as a conceptual…
A contribution is presented to the application of fractal properties and log-periodic corrections to the masses of several nuclei (isotopes or isotones), and to the energy levels of some nuclei. The fractal parameters $\alpha$ and $\lambda$…
Single scale Feynman integrals in quantum field theories obey difference or differential equations with respect to their discrete parameter $N$ or continuous parameter $x$. The analysis of these equations reveals to which order they…
We generalise remarks of Euler and of Perron by explaining how to detail all quadratic irrational integers for which the symmetric part of the period of their continued fraction expansion commences with prescribed partial quotients. The…
Reduced ideals have been defined in the context of integer rings in quadratic number fields, and they are closely tied to the continued fraction algorithm. The notion of this type of ideal extends naturally to number fields of higher…
We investigate the simultaneous distribution of the fractional parts of $\{\alpha_1 \gamma, \alpha_2\gamma, \cdots, \alpha_n\gamma\}$, where $n\geq 2$, $\alpha_1$, $\alpha_2$, $\ldots$, $\alpha_n$ are fixed, distinct positive real numbers…
The distributional analysis of Euclidean algorithms was carried out by Baladi and Vall\'{e}e. They showed the asymptotic normality of the number of division steps and associated costs in the Euclidean algorithm as a random variable on the…
We consider the map X defined on the rational numbers given by x --> x * ceil(x), where ceil(x) denotes the smallest integer greater than or equal to x, and study the problem of finding, for each rational, the smallest number of iterations…
We discuss a proposal for a continued fraction-like algorithm to determine simultaneous rational approximations to $d$ real numbers $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_d$. It combines an algorithm of Hermite and Lagarias with ideas from LLL-reduction.…
Partial algebras and datatypes are discussed with the use of signatures that allow partial functions, and a three-valued short-circuit (sequential) first order logic with a Tarski semantics. The propositional part of this logic is also…
