Linear independence of continued fractions

Jaroslav Hančl (2002)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

The main result of this paper is a criterion for linear independence of continued fractions over the rational numbers. The proof is based on their special properties.

The distribution of the sum-of-digits function

Michael Drmota, Johannes Gajdosik (1998)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

By using a generating function approach it is shown that the sum-of-digits function (related to specific finite and infinite linear recurrences) satisfies a central limit theorem. Additionally a local limit theorem is derived.

Normalizing constants for a statistic based on logarithms of disjoint m-spacings

Franciszek Czekała (1996)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The paper is concerned with the asymptotic normality of a certain statistic based on the logarithms of disjoint m-spacings. The exact and asymptotic mean and variance are computed in the case of uniform distribution on the interval [0,1]. This result is generalized to the case when the sample is drawn from a distribution with positive step density on [0,1].

On partitions without small parts

J.-L. Nicolas, A. Sárközy (2000)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let r ( n , m ) denote the number of partitions of n into parts, each of which is at least m . By applying the saddle point method to the generating series, an asymptotic estimate is given for r ( n , m ) , which holds for n → ∞ , and 1 ≤ m ≤ c 1 n log n c 2 .
