BEING A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN THE DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING THE UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE IVIARCl-i I979 SUIq¡4ARY The number systems used have great impact on the speed of a computer, At present at least 4 number systems (binary, negabinary, ternary and residue) are in use either for general purposes or for special purposes. The calîry plîopagation delay which j-s inherent to all weighted systems (binary, negabi-nary and ternary) is a limiting factor on the speed of computations. tlnlike the weighted system, the residue system is carry free which is the m¿rln attractj-ve feature of this system and therefore its potentiality in a general purpose computer, in the light of present day tech- nology, has been investigated. As the background of the investigation the binary and negabinary arithmetic have been thoroughly studied. A ne',r method for fractional negabinary division, and a correction on negabinary multiplì-cation have been proposed. It has been observed that the binary arithmetic operations are fas- ter thair thcse ir. negabinary syslem. The residue system has got. problems too. The sign detectj-on, operations j-nvolving sign detection (comparison, overflow detection, division) and the resj-due-to--decimal- con- version are difficult. Moreover, the residue systemT being an i.nteger: systetn, makes floati-ng poinc arithmetic operatlcns very difficult. The def:ails of the existing algorithms,/ methods to solve those problems have been thoroughly inves- tigated and drawbacks of those algoritlrms/methods have been di scussed.

  • On the Behavior of Mahler's Measure Under Iteration 1
    ON THE BEHAVIOR OF MAHLER'S MEASURE UNDER ITERATION PAUL FILI, LUKAS POTTMEYER, AND MINGMING ZHANG Abstract. For an algebraic number α we denote by M(α) the Mahler measure of α. As M(α) is again an algebraic number (indeed, an algebraic integer), M(·) is a self-map on Q, and therefore defines a dynamical system. The orbit size of α, denoted #OM (α), is the cardinality of the forward orbit of α under M. We prove that for every degree at least 3 and every non-unit norm, there exist algebraic numbers of every orbit size. We then prove that for algebraic units of degree 4, the orbit size must be 1, 2, or infinity. We also show that there exist algebraic units of larger degree with arbitrarily large but finite orbit size. 1. Introduction The Mahler measure of an algebraic number α with minimal polynomial f(x) = n anx + ··· + a0 2 Z[x] is defined as: n n Y Y M(α) = janj maxf1; jαijg = ±an αi: i=1 i=1 jαij>1 Qn where f(x) = an i=1(x − αi) 2 C[x]. It is clear that M(α) ≥ 1 is a real algebraic integer, and it follows from Kronecker's theorem that M(α) = 1 if and only if α is a root of unity. Moreover, we will freely use the facts that M(α) = M(β) whenever α and β have the same minimal polynomial, and that M(α) = M(α−1). D.H. Lehmer [10] famously asked in 1933 if the Mahler measure for an algebraic number which is not a root of unity can be arbitrarily close to 1.

  • The Smallest Perron Numbers 1
    MATHEMATICS OF COMPUTATION Volume 79, Number 272, October 2010, Pages 2387–2394 S 0025-5718(10)02345-8 Article electronically published on April 26, 2010 THE SMALLEST PERRON NUMBERS QIANG WU Abstract. A Perron number is a real algebraic integer α of degree d ≥ 2, whose conjugates are αi, such that α>max2≤i≤d |αi|. In this paper we com- pute the smallest Perron numbers of degree d ≤ 24 and verify that they all satisfy the Lind-Boyd conjecture. Moreover, the smallest Perron numbers of degree 17 and 23 give the smallest house for these degrees. The computa- tions use a family of explicit auxiliary functions. These functions depend on generalizations of the integer transfinite diameter of some compact sets in C 1. Introduction Let α be an algebraic integer of degree d, whose conjugates are α1 = α, α2,...,αd and d d−1 P = X + b1X + ···+ bd−1X + bd, its minimal polynomial. A Perron number, which was defined by Lind [LN1], is a real algebraic integer α of degree d ≥ 2 such that α > max2≤i≤d |αi|.Any Pisot number or Salem number is a Perron number. From the Perron-Frobenius theorem, if A is a nonnegative integral matrix which is aperiodic, i.e. some power of A has strictly positive entries, then its spectral radius α is a Perron number. Lind has proved the converse, that is to say, if α is a Perron number, then there is a nonnegative aperiodic integral matrix whose spectral radius is α.Lind[LN2] has investigated the arithmetic of the Perron numbers.

  • Appendix: the Cost of Computing: Big-O and Recursion
    Appendix: The Cost of Computing: Big-O and Recursion Big-O otation In the previous section we have seen a chart comparing execution times for various sorting algorithms. The chart, however, did not show any absolute numbers to tell us the actual time it took, say, to sort an array of 10,000 double numbers using the insertion sort algorithm. That is because the actual time depends, among other things, on the processor of the machine the program is running on, not only on the algorithm used. For example, the worst possible sorting algorithm executing on a Pentium II 450 MHz chip may finish a lot quicker in some situations than the best possible sorting algorithm running on an old Intel 386 chip. Even when two algorithms execute on the same machine, other processes that are running on the system can considerably skew the results one way or another. Therefore, execution time is not really an adequate measurement of the "goodness" of an algorithm. We need a more mathematical way to determine how good an algorithm is, and which of two algorithms is better. In this section, we will introduce the "big-O" notation, which does provide just that: a mathematical description that allows you to rate an algorithm. The Math behind Big-O There is a little background mathematics required to work with this concept, but it is not much, and you should quickly understand the major concepts involved. The most important concept you may need to review is that of the limit of a function. Definition: Limit of a Function We say that a function f converges to a limit L as x approaches a number c if f(x) gets closer and closer to L if x gets closer and closer to c, and we use the notation lim f (x) = L x→c Similarly, a function f converges to a limit L as x approaches positive (negative) infinity if f(x) gets closer and closer to L as x is positive (negative) and gets bigger (smaller) and bigger (smaller).

  • 3958 Weird Numbers
    3958 Weird Numbers Binary numbers form the principal basis of computer science. Most of you have heard of other systems, such as ternary, octal, or hexadecimal. You probably know how to use these systems and how to convert numbers between them. But did you know that the system base (radix) could also be negative? One assistant professor at the Czech Technical University has recently met negabinary numbers and other systems with a negative base. Will you help him to convert numbers to and from these systems? A number N written in the system with a positive base R will always appear as a string of digits between 0 and R − 1, inclusive. A digit at the position P (positions are counted from right to left and starting with zero) represents a value of RP . This means the value of the digit is multiplied by RP and values of all positions are summed together. For example, if we use the octal system (radix R = 8), a number written as 17024 has the following value: 1 ∗ 84 + 7 ∗ 83 + 0 ∗ 82 + 2 ∗ 81 + 4 ∗ 80 = 1 ∗ 4096 + 7 ∗ 512 + 2 ∗ 8 + 4 ∗ 1 = 7700 With a negative radix −R, the principle remains the same: each digit will have a value of (−R)P . For example, a negaoctal (radix R = −8) number 17024 counts as: 1 ∗ (−8)4 + 7 ∗ (−8)3 + 0 ∗ (−8)2 + 2 ∗ (−8)1 + 4 ∗ (−8)0 = 1 ∗ 4096 − 7 ∗ 512 − 2 ∗ 8 + 4 ∗ 1 = 500 One big advantage of systems with a negative base is that we do not need a minus sign to express negative numbers.

  • 1 Introduction 2 Place Value Representation
    Exotic Arithmetic, 2019 Fusing Dots, Antidots, and Black Holes 1 Introduction This paper discusses several methods of representing numbers, and several ways to understand these methods of representation.1 We begin with what is called decimal representation, the ordinary method we use to represent integers and fractions. Because the method of representation is an important starting point in learning the arithmetic of integers and decimals, we shall explore alternative methods of representation, that is, representation using bases other than our usual base 10 ten. This is roughly akin to the idea that one does not really understand one's own language until we learn a second language. Instead of trying to develop representation in an arbitrary base b, we select a specific base for the sake of clarity. This is base 5 representation. Also, we'll spend some time learning Martian numeration, base 6. Later we will discuss other representation including those for which the base b is not a positive integer. We also explore the system of enumeration when b is a rational number but not an integer, and then when b is a negative integer. Finally, we'll also see that it is even possible for b to be irrational. 2 Place Value Representation The place value interpretation of 4273 is 4000 + 200 + 70 + 3, which is a sum of multiples of powers of 10. The relevant powers of 10 are 103 = 1000; 102 = 100; 101 = 10; and 100 = 1. Each one has a coefficient or multiplier, 4; 2; 7; and 3, respectively. Thus 4 · 103; 2 · 102; 7 · 101; and 3 · 100 are multiples of powers of 10 and therefore 4273 is a sum of multiples of powers of 10.

  • New Families of Pseudo-Anosov Homeomorphisms with Vanishing Sah-Arnoux-Fathi Invariant
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Hieu Trung Do for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Mathematics presented on May 27, 2016. Title: New Families of pseudo-Anosov Homeomorphisms with Vanishing Sah-Arnoux-Fathi Invariant. Abstract approved: Thomas A. Schmidt Translation surfaces can be viewed as polygons with parallel and equal sides identified. An affine homeomorphism φ from a translation surface to itself is called pseudo-Anosov when its derivative is a constant matrix in SL2(R) whose trace is larger than 2 in absolute value. In this setting, the eigendirections of this matrix defines the stable and unstable flow on the translation surface. Taking a transversal to the stable flows, the first return map of the flow induces an interval exchange transformation T . The Sah-Arnoux-Fathi invariant of φ is the sum of the wedge product between the lengths of the subintervals of T and their translations. This wedge product does not depend on the choice of transversal. We apply Veech's construction of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms to produce infinite families of pseudo-Anosov maps in the stratum H(2; 2) with vanishing Sah-Arnoux-Fathi invariant, as well as sporadic examples in other strata. ©Copyright by Hieu Trung Do May 27, 2016 All Rights Reserved New Families of pseudo-Anosov Homeomorphisms with Vanishing Sah-Arnoux-Fathi Invariant by Hieu Trung Do A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Presented May 27, 2016 Commencement June 2016 Doctor of Philosophy thesis of Hieu Trung Do presented on May 27, 2016 APPROVED: Major Professor, representing Mathematics Chair of the Department of Mathematics Dean of the Graduate School I understand that my thesis will become part of the permanent collection of Oregon State University libraries.

Pelantov´a Abstract We consider a positional numeration system with a negative base, as introduced by Ito and Sadahiro. In particular, we focus on the algebraic properties of negative bases −β for which the corresponding dynamical system is sofic, which β happens, according to Ito and Sadahiro, if and only if the (−β)-expansion of − is eventually periodic. We call β +1 such numbers β Ito-Sadahiro numbers, and we compare their properties with those of Parry numbers, which occur in thesamecontextfortheR´enyi positive base numeration system.
