Bounds for the 3x+1 Problem using Difference Inequalities

open access: yes, 2002
We study difference inequality systems for the 3x+1 problem introduced by the first author in 1989. These systemes can be used to give lower bounds for the number of integers below x that contain 1 in their forward orbit under the 3x+1 map.

Hausdorff Dimensions of Self-Similar and Self-Affine Fractals in the Heisenberg Group [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We study the Hausdorff dimensions of invariant sets for self-similar and self-affine iterated function systems in the Heisenberg group. In our principal result we obtain almost sure formulae for the dimensions of self-affine invariant sets, extending to ...

On Functions with Monotonic Differences

open access: yesAnnales Mathematicae Silesianae
Motivated by the Szostok problem on functions with monotonic differences (2005, 2007), we consider a-Wright convex functions as a generalization of Wright convex functions.

$3x+1$ inverse orbit generating functions almost always have natural boundaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The $3x+k$ function $T_{k}(n)$ sends $n$ to $(3n+k)/2$ resp. $n/2,$ according as $n$ is odd, resp. even, where $k \equiv \pm 1~(\bmod \, 6)$. The map $T_k(\cdot)$ sends integers to integers, and for $m \ge 1$ let $n \rightarrow m$ mean that $m$ is in the

Turbulent maps and their ω-limit sets

open access: yes, 1997
One-dimensional turbulent maps can be characterized via their ω-limit sets [1]. We give a direct proof of this characterization and get stronger results, which allows us to obtain some other results on ω-limit sets, which previously were difficult to ...

Descending Dungeons and Iterated Base-Changing

open access: yes, 2006
For real numbers a, b> 1, let as a_b denote the result of interpreting a in base b instead of base 10. We define ``dungeons'' (as opposed to ``towers'') to be numbers of the form a_b_c_d_..._e, parenthesized either from the bottom upwards (preferred) or ...

On barycentric subdivision, with simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Consider the barycentric subdivision which cuts a given triangle along its medians to produce six new triangles. Uniformly choosing one of them and iterating this procedure gives rise to a Markov chain.

Some properties of a function studied by De Rham, Carlitz and Dijkstra and its relation to the (Eisenstein-)Stern\u27s diatomic sequence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We present a novel approach to a remarkable function D: N_0→N_0 defined by D(0)=0, D(1)=1, D(2n)=D(n), D(2n+1)=D(n)+D(n+1), studied independently by well known researchers in different areas of mathematics and computer science.

Unfolding chaotic quadratic maps --- parameter dependence of natural measures

open access: yes, 1998
We consider perturbations of quadratic maps $f_a$ admitting an absolutely continuous invariant probability measure, where $a$ is in a certain positive measure set $\mathcal{A}$ of parameters, and show that in any neighborhood of any such an $f_a$, we ...
