A sequential importance sampling algorithm is developed for the distribution that results when a matrix of independent, but not identically distributed, Bernoulli random variables is conditioned on a given sequence of row and column sums.…
By well known results of probability theory, any sequence of random variables with bounded second moments has a subsequence satisfying the central limit theorem and the law of the iterated logarithm in a randomized form. In this paper we…
An iterative randomness extraction algorithm which generalized the Von Neumann's extraction algorithm is detailed, analyzed and implemented in standard C++. Given a sequence of independently and identically distributed biased Bernoulli…
We develop a method for generating pseudorandom binary sequences using the Bernoulli map on cubic algebraic integers. The distinguishing characteristic of our generator is that it generates chaotic true orbits of the Bernoulli map by exact…
In set theory without the axiom of regularity, we consider a game in which two players choose in turn an element of a given set, an element of this element, etc.; a player wins if its adversary cannot make any next move. Sets that are…
We prove that there are arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions of primes. There are three major ingredients. The first is Szemeredi's theorem, which asserts that any subset of the integers of positive density contains progressions of…
Denote by $\mathbb{N}$ and $\mathbb{P}$ the set of all positive integers and prime numbers, respectively. Let $\mathbb{P}=\{p_1<p_2<\dots <p_n<\dots\}$, where $p_n$ is the $n$-th prime number. For $k\in\mathbb{N}$ we recursively define…
We consider the problem of counting $k$-tuples of positive integers satisfying any arbitrary set of gcd conditions, where every integer is not larger than $x$. We first establish the conditions to guarantee the existence of such tuples, and…
Consider a system $f_1(x)=0,\ldots,f_n(x)=0$ of $n$ random real polynomials in $n$ variables, where each $f_i$ has a prescribed set of terms described by a set $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}^n$ of cardinality $t$. Assuming that the coefficients of…
In the theory of algorithmic randomness, one of the central notions is that of computable randomness. An infinite binary sequence X is computably random if no recursive martingale (strategy) can win an infinite amount of money by betting on…
It is well-known that for any non-constant polynomial $P$ with integer coefficients the sequence $(P(n))_{ n\in \mathbb N}$ has the property that there are infinitely many prime numbers dividing at least one term of this sequence.…
The algorithmic theory of randomness is well developed when the underlying space is the set of finite or infinite sequences and the underlying probability distribution is the uniform distribution or a computable distribution. These…
A novel multinomial theorem for commutative idempotents is shown to lead to new results about the moments, central moments, factorial moments, and their generating functions for any random variable $X = \sum_{i} Y_i $ expressible as a sum…
An increasing sequence $(a_n)$ of positive integers which satisfies $\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}>1+\eta$ for some positive $\eta$ is called a lacunary sequence. It has been known for over twenty years that every lacunary sequence is strong sweeping…
Every set $A$ of positive integers with upper Banach density 1 contains an infinite sequence of pairwise disjoint subsets $(B_i)_{i=1}^{\infty}$ such that $B_i$ has upper Banach density 1 for all $i \in \mathbf{N}$ and $\sum_{i\in I} B_i…
In this paper we study random orderings of the integers with a certain invariance property. We describe all such orders in a simple way. We define and represent random shuffles of a countable set of labels and then give an interpretation of…
We study the asymptotic density of the set of subscripts of the Bernoulli numbers having a given denominator. We also study the distribution of distinct Bernoulli denominators and some related problems.
In a recent paper [1], it has been claimed that the outcomes of a quantum coin toss which is idealized as an infinite binary sequence is 1-random. We also defend the correctness of this claim and assert that the outcomes of quantum…
An existing dialogue between number theory and dynamical systems is advanced. A combinatorial device gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of non-negative integers to count the periodic points in a dynamical system. This…
Let ${\mathcal{P}_{n}}$ denote the set of positive integers which are prime to $n$. Let $B_{n}$ be the $n$-th Bernoulli number. For any prime $p \ge 11$ and integer $r\ge 2$, we prove that $$ \sum\limits_{\begin{smallmatrix}…
