Regular h-ranges and weakly pleasant h-bases.
We give an extension of Benford's law (first digit problem) by using the concept of conditional density, introduced by Fuchs and Letta. The main tool is the notion of regular subset of integers.
In the study of the -adic sum of digits function , the arithmetical function and for plays a very important role. In this paper, we firstly generalize the relation between and to a bijective relation between arithmetical functions. And as an application, we investigate some aspects of the sum of digits functions induced by binary infinite Gray codes . We can show that the difference of the sum of digits function, , is realized by an automaton. And the summation formula of the sum...
This paper is closely related to an earlier paper of the author and W. Narkiewicz (cf. [7]) and to some papers concerning ratio sets of positive integers (cf. [4], [5], [12], [13], [14]). The paper contains some new results completing results of the mentioned papers. Among other things a characterization of the Steinhaus property of sets of positive integers is given here by using the concept of ratio sets of positive integers.
