The dexter infinite series expansion is called the Liiroth expansion of x. This paper is con- cerned with the size of the set of points x whose digit sequence in its Liiroth expansion is strictly increasing and contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions with arbitrary com- mon difference. More precisely, we determine the Hausdorff dimension of the above set.展开更多

ErdSs ever asked whether all these progressions can be obtained from covering congruences. In this paper, we characterize all arithmetic progressions in which there are positive proportion natural numbers that can be expressed in the form 2^k + p, and give a quantitative form of Romanoff's theorem on arithmetic progressions. As a corollary, we prove that the answer to the above Erdos problem is affirmative.展开更多

We prove that the realization of a stochastic equilibrium may render to the people quite unequal benefits. Its proof is based on Erdös Discrepancy Problem that an arithmetic progression sum of any sign sequence goes to infinity, which is recently solved by Terence Tao [1]. The result in this paper implies that in some cases, the sources of inequality come from pure luck.展开更多
