Irreducible disjoint covering systems
We study the frequency of hypercyclicity of hypercyclic, non–weakly mixing linear operators. In particular, we show that on the space , any sublinear frequency can be realized by a non–weakly mixing operator. A weaker but similar result is obtained for or , . Part of our results is related to some Sidon-type lacunarity properties for sequences of natural numbers.
A homothetic arithmetic function of ratio is a function such that for every . Periodic arithmetic funtions are always homothetic, while the converse is not true in general. In this paper we study homothetic and periodic arithmetic functions. In particular we give an upper bound for the number of elements of in terms of the period and the ratio of .
We use the properties of -adic integrals and measures to obtain general congruences for Genocchi numbers and polynomials and tangent coefficients. These congruences are analogues of the usual Kummer congruences for Bernoulli numbers, generalize known congruences for Genocchi numbers, and provide new congruences systems for Genocchi polynomials and tangent coefficients.
