We propose the extension of the complex numbers to be the new domain where new concepts, like negative and imaginary probabilities, can be defined. The unit of the new space is defined as the solution of the unsolvable equation in the…
We introduced a new continued fraction expansions in our previous paper. For these expansions, we show formulae of probability about incomplete quotients. Furthermore, we prove the existence of invariant measures with respect to the…
We obtain asymptotics for sums of the form $$ \sum_{n=1}^P e(\alpha_kn^k + \alpha_1n), $$ involving lower order main terms. As an application, we show that for almost all $\alpha_2 \in [0,1)$ one has $$ \sup_{\alpha_1 \in [0,1)} \Big|…
For any positive integer $n$ along with parameters $\alpha$ and $\nu$, we define and investigate $\alpha$-shifted, $\nu$-offset, floor sequences of length $n$. We find exact and asymptotic formulas for the number of integers in such a…
For a positive real $\alpha$, we can consider the additive submonoid $M$ of the real line that is generated by the nonnegative powers of $\alpha$. When $\alpha$ is transcendental, $M$ is a unique factorization monoid. However, when $\alpha$…
It is widely believed that the continued fraction expansion of every irrational algebraic number $\alpha$ either is eventually periodic (and we know that this is the case if and only if $\alpha$ is a quadratic irrational), or it contains…
We give an elementary geometric proof using Ford circles that the convergents of the continued fraction expansion of a real number $\alpha$ coincide with the rationals that are best approximations of the second kind of $\alpha$.
We introduce the associated Lah numbers. Some recurrence relations and convolution identities are established. An extension of the associated Stirling and Lah numbers to the r-Stirling and r-Lah numbers are also given. For all these…
In this paper, we study the Diophantine properties of the orbits of a fixed point in its expansions under continuum many bases. More precisely, let $T_{\beta}$ be the beta-transformation with base $\beta>1$, $\{x_{n}\}_{n\geq 1}$ be a…
We demonstrate $k+1$-term arithmetic progressions in certain subsets of the real line whose "higher-order Fourier dimension" is sufficiently close to 1. This Fourier dimension, introduced in previous work, is a higher-order (in the sense of…
Contemporary presentation of the version 1 demonstrates briefly the development of our investigations and our future goals. The improved free of difficulties in interpretation and printing errors version is presented. The 256-dimensional…
Consider the regular Dirichlet extension $(\mathcal{E},\mathcal{F})$ for one-dimensional Brownian motion, that $H^1(\mathbb{R})$ is a subspace of $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{E}(f,g)=\frac12\mathbf{D}(f,g)$ for $f,g\in H^1(\mathbb{R})$. Both…
Let $F_{n}$ be the $n$-th Fibonacci number. Put $\varphi=\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}$. We prove that the following inequalities hold for any real $\alpha$: 1) $\inf_{n \in \mathbb N} ||F_n\alpha||\le\frac{\varphi-1}{\varphi+2}$, 2) $\liminf_{n\to…
For a rotation by an irrational $\alpha$ on the circle and a BV function $\varphi$, we study the variance of the ergodic sums $S_L \varphi(x) := \sum_{j=0}^{L -1} \, \varphi(x + j\alpha)$. When $\alpha$ is not of constant type, we construct…
Given $\beta\in(1,2)$ and $x\in[0,\frac{1}{\beta-1}]$, a sequence $(\epsilon_{i})_{i=1}^{\infty}\in\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ is called a $\beta$-expansion for $x$ if $$x=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}\frac{\epsilon_{i}}{\beta^{i}}.$$ In a recent article…
We consider the real number $\sigma$ with continued fraction expansion $[a_0, a_1, a_2,\ldots] = [1,2,1,4,1,2,1,8,1,2,1,4,1,2,1,16,\ldots]$, where $a_i$ is the largest power of $2$ dividing $i+1$. We compute the irrationality measure of…
A theory of resource-bounded dimension is developed using gales, which are natural generalizations of martingales. When the resource bound \Delta (a parameter of the theory) is unrestricted, the resulting dimension is precisely the…
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…
We present an exposition on the Fuss--Catalan numbers, which are a generalization of the well known Catalan numbers. The literature on the subject is scattered (especially for the case of multiple independent parameters, as will be…
We study first-order expansions of the reals which do not define the set of natural numbers. We also show that several stronger notions of tameness are equivalent to each others.
