Robert F. Tichy: 50 years: The unreasonable effectiveness of a number theorist
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present volume of UDT is devoted to Robert F. Tichy on the occasion of his 50th birthday. We cordially congratulate him on this occasion and wish him the best for the future. In this short note we collect highlights of his scientific work. Together with more than 70 coauthors he has written over 200 papers so far, with topics that range from number theory to applications in actuarial mathematics and also mathematical chemistry. But, of course, the scientific work is only one facet of Robert Tichy’s personality. It is remarkable how many students graduated under his supervision since 1984. At least 25 PhD students are known to us, including the five authors of the

متن کاملDiscrepancy Estimate of Normal Vectors (the Case of Hyperbolic Matrices)
Let A be a t × t invertible matrix with integer entries and with eigenvalues |λi| 6 = 1, i ∈ [1, t]. In this paper we prove explicitly that there exists a vector α, such that discrepancy of the sequence {αA} n=1 is equal to O(N(logN)) for N −→ ∞. This estimate can be improved no more than on the logarithmic factor. Communicated by Robert F. Tichy Dedicated to the memory of Professor Edmund Hlawka
متن کاملEmpirical processes in probabilistic number theory : the LIL for the discrepancy of ( n k ω ) mod 1
We prove a law of the iterated logarithm for the Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic, or equivalently, the discrepancy of sequences (nkω) mod 1. Here (nk) is a sequence of integers satisfying a subHadamard growth condition and such that linear Diophantine equations in the variables nk do not have too many solutions. The proof depends on a martingale embedding of the empirical process; the number-theor...
متن کاملConstructions of Pseudorandom Binary Lattices
Three constructions for binary lattices with strong pseudorandom properties are given. These constructions are the two dimensional extensions and modifications of three of the most important one dimensional constructions. The upper estimates for the pseudorandom measures of the binary lattices constructed are based on the principle that character sums in two variables can be estimated by fixing...
متن کاملSpectral disjointness of dynamical systems related to some arithmetic functions
We present a new and general approach to prove the spectral disjointness of dynamical systems related to digital expansions of natural numbers and Gaussian integers. The main tools are ideas from automata theory and rigid time in ergodic theory. This extends earlier work of T. Kamae and M. Queffélec.
