Expansions of real numbers in non-integer bases and charaterisation of Lazy expansion of 1

Abstract

In this paper, our main focus is expressing real numbers on the non-integer bases. We denote those bases as $\beta$'s, which is also a real number and $\beta \in (1,2)$. This project has 3 main parts. The study of expansions of real numbers in such bases and algorithms for generating them will contribute to the first part of the paper. In this part, firstly, we will define those expansions as the sums of fractions with $1$'s or $0$'s in the nominator and powers of $\beta$ in the denominator. Then we will focus on the sequences of $1$'s and $0$'s generated by the nominators of in the sums we mentioned above. Such sequences will be called \textit{coefficient sequences} throughout the paper. In the second half, we will study the results in the first chapter of \cite{erdos1990characterization}, namely the greedy and lazy $\beta $-expansions . The last part of the paper will be on the characterisation of lazy expansion of 1, which was the first open question at the end of \textit{Erdos and Komornik}. I still don't know if that problem has been solved already. However, the solution that was presented here is the original work of mine.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
