Irregularities of continuous distributions

Michael Drmota — 1989

Annales de l'institut Fourier

This paper deals with a continuous analogon to irregularities of point distributions. If a continuous fonction x : [ 0 , 1 ] X where X is a compact body, is interpreted as a particle’s movement in time, then the discrepancy measures the difference between the particle’s stay in a proper subset and the volume of the subset. The essential part of this paper is to give lower bounds for the discrepancy in terms of the arc length of x ( t ) , 0 t 1 . Furthermore it is shown that these estimates are the best possible despite of...

The Zeckendorf expansion of polynomial sequences

Michael DrmotaWolfgang Steiner — 2002

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

In the first part of the paper we prove that the Zeckendorf sum-of-digits function s z ( n ) and similarly defined functions evaluated on polynomial sequences of positive integers or primes satisfy a central limit theorem. We also prove that the Zeckendorf expansion and the q -ary expansions of integers are asymptotically independent.

The joint distribution of Q -additive functions on polynomials over finite fields

Michael DrmotaGeorg Gutenbrunner — 2005

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Let K be a finite field and Q K [ T ] a polynomial of positive degree. A function f on K [ T ] is called (completely) Q -additive if f ( A + B Q ) = f ( A ) + f ( B ) , where A , B K [ T ] and deg ( A ) < deg ( Q ) . We prove that the values ( f 1 ( A ) , ... , f d ( A ) ) are asymptotically equidistributed on the (finite) image set { ( f 1 ( A ) , ... , f d ( A ) ) : A K [ T ] } if Q j are pairwise coprime and f j : K [ T ] K [ T ] are Q j -additive. Furthermore, it is shown that ( g 1 ( A ) , g 2 ( A ) ) are asymptotically independent and Gaussian if g 1 , g 2 : K [ T ] are Q 1 - resp. Q 2 -additive.
