The Büchi sequences and Hilbert's Tenth Problem

(2016)

Banach Center Publications

In this short survey paper we state the Büchi conjecture and discuss its relations with the Hilbert Tenth Problem. We give some generalizations of the conjecture, and include some numerical examples.

The sequence of fractional parts of roots

Kevin O'Bryant (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

We study the function M θ ( n ) = 1 / θ 1 / n , where θ is a positive real number, ⌊·⌋ and · are the floor and fractional part functions, respectively. Nathanson proved, among other properties of M θ , that if log θ is rational, then for all but finitely many positive integers n, M θ ( n ) = n / l o g θ - 1 / 2 . We extend this by showing that, without any condition on θ, all but a zero-density set of integers n satisfy M θ ( n ) = n / l o g θ - 1 / 2 . Using a metric result of Schmidt, we show that almost all θ have asymptotically (log θ log x)/12 exceptional n ≤ x. Using continued...
