The article is devoted to the investigation of representation of rational numbers by Cantor series. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a rational number to be representable by a positive Cantor series are formulated for the case of an…

This is an expository lecture on the subject of the title delivered at the Park-IAS mathematical institute in Princeton (July, 2000).

We study the topology and the Hausdorff dimension of a random Cantor set with overlaps, generated by an iterated function system with scaling ratio equal to the Golden Mean. The results extend known formulas to a case where the Open Set…

A Cantor set is a non-empty, compact set that has neither interior nor isolated points. In this paper a Cantor set $K\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is constructed such that every set definable in $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\cdot,K)$ is Borel. In addition, we…

This is a personal and historical essay based on the Shaw Prize Lecture given in Hong Kong in September 2017 in association with the 2017 Shaw Prize in Astronomy.

This is a survey of open problems in different parts of combinatorial and additive number theory. The paper is based on lectures at the Centre de Recerca Matematica in Barcelona on January 23 and January 25, 2008.

These are introductory lecture notes on Mather's theory for Tonelli Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems. They are based on a series of lectures given by the author at Universit\`a degli Studi di Napoli "Federico II" (April 2009), at…

The purpose of this talk is to address a couple of simple-sounding questions: what boundary conditions are compatible with (a) Classical integrability? (b) Quantum integrability?

The paper is an introduction to intuitionistic mathematics.

These are my notes for a talk at the The Tate Conjecture workshop at the American Institute of Mathematics in Palo Alto, CA, July 23--July 27, 2007, somewhat revised and expanded. The intent of the talk was to review what is known and to…

Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors: Behind one door is a car; behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which…

Based on comments made at the 23rd Solvay Conference, December 2005, Brussels.

In this paper, ideas of open ball, closed ball, compact set are introduced and some related basic properties are studied. Some topological properties and some other well known results of metric spaces including Cantor intersection theorem…

This is a review devoted to some results of Algebraic Programming (Computer Algebra) used in treating several problems of general relativity, based mainly on already published articles. The article contains the talk given by the author at…

These notes are based on a lecture given by S. L. Woronowicz at the Institute of Mathematics, Polish Academy of Sciences.

We work in the Cantor space $2^\omega$. The results of the paper adhere the following pattern. Let $\mathcal{I}\in \{\mathcal{M}, \mathcal{N}, \mathcal{M}\cap \mathcal{N}, \mathcal{E}\}$ and $T$ be a perfect, uniformly perfect or Silver…

This paper presents an extended version of lecture notes for an introductory course on Berkovich analytic spaces that I gave in 2010 at Summer School "Berkovich spaces" at Institut de Mathmatiques de Jussieu.

This survey article on Hilbert's first and second problems is adapted from a one-hour colloquium lecture given at the University of Auckland in May, 2000, just three months before the 100th anniversary of Hilbert's lecture. It includes an…
