We consider suspension semiflows of angle-multiplying maps on the circle and study the distributions of periods of their periodic orbits. Under generic conditions on the roof function, we give an asymptotic formula on the number $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}(T)$ of prime periodic orbits with period $\leq T$. The error term is bounded, at least, by $$\begin{eqnarray}\exp \biggl(\biggl(1-\frac{1}{4\lceil \unicode[STIX]{x1D712}_{\text{max}}/h_{\text{top}}\rceil }+\unicode[STIX]{x1D700}\biggr)h_{\text{top}}\cdot T\biggr)\quad \text{in the limit }T\rightarrow \infty\end{eqnarray}$$ for arbitrarily small $\unicode[STIX]{x1D700}>0$, where $h_{\text{top}}$ and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}_{\text{max}}$ are, respectively, the topological entropy and the maximal Lyapunov exponent of the semiflow.

In following a suggestion of S. Chowla to apply a method of C. Hooley [3] to obtain an asymptotic formula for the sum ∑ r(n)r(n+a), where r(n) denotes the number of representations of n≤xn as the sum of two squares and is positive integer, we have had to obtain non-trivial estimates for the error term in the asymptotic expansion of1

I. Throughout this paper k1, …, k3 will denote s ≥ I fixed distinct positive integers. Some years ago Pillai (1936) found an asymptotic formula, with error term O(x/log x), for the number of positive integers n ≤ x such that n + k1, …, n + k3 are all square-free. I recently considered (Mirsky, 1947) the corresponding problem for r-free integers (i.e. integers not divisible by the rth power of any prime), and was able, in particular, to reduce the error term in Pillai's formula.Our present object is to discuss various generalizations and extensions of Pillai's problem. In all investigations below we shall be concerned with a set A of integers. This is any given, finite or infinite, set of integers greater than 1 and subject to certain additional restrictions which will be stated later. The elements of A will be called a-numbers, and the letter a will be reserved for them. A number which is not divisible by any a-number will be called A-free, and our main concern will be with the study of A-free numbers. Their additive properties have recently been investigated elsewhere (Mirsky, 1948), and some estimates obtained in that investigation will be quoted in the present paper.

The number, , of rooted plane binary trees of height ≤ h with n internal nodes is shown to satisfyuniformly for δ−1(log n)−1/2 ≤ β ≤ δ(log n)1/2, where and δ is a positive constant. An asymptotic formula for is derived for h = cn, where 0 < c < 1. Bounds for are also derived for large and small heights. The methods apply to any simple family of trees, and the general asymptotic results are stated.

In the pulmonary acinus, the airflow Reynolds number is usually much less than unity and hence the flow might be expected to be reversible. However, this does not appear to be the case as a significant portion of the fine particles that reach the acinus remains there after exhalation. We believe that this irreversibility is at large a result of chaotic mixing in the alveoli of the acinar airways. To test this hypothesis, we solved numerically the equations for incompressible, pulsatile, flow in a rigid alveolated duct and tracked numerous fluid particles over many breathing cycles. The resulting Poincaré sections exhibit chains of islands on which particles travel. In the region between these chains of islands, some particles move chaotically. The presence of chaos is supported by the results of an estimate of the maximal Lyapunov exponent. It is shown that the streamfunction equation for this flow may be written in the form of a Hamiltonian system and that an expansion of this equation captures all the essential features of the Poincaré sections. Elements of Kolmogorov–Arnol’d–Moser theory, the Poincaré–Birkhoff fixed-point theorem, and associated Hamiltonian dynamics theory are then employed to confirm the existence of chaos in the flow in a rigid alveolated duct.

We attempt to discuss a new circle problem. Let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D701}(s)$ denote the Riemann zeta-function $\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }n^{-s}$ ($\text{Re}\,s>1$) and $L(s,\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}_{4})$ the Dirichlet $L$-function $\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}_{4}(n)n^{-s}$ ($\text{Re}\,s>1$) with the primitive Dirichlet character mod 4. We shall define an arithmetical function $R_{(1,1)}(n)$ by the coefficient of the Dirichlet series $\unicode[STIX]{x1D701}^{\prime }(s)L^{\prime }(s,\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}_{4})=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }R_{(1,1)}(n)n^{-s}$$(\text{Re}\,s>1)$. This is an analogue of $r(n)/4=\sum _{d|n}\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}_{4}(d)$. In the circle problem, there are many researches of estimations and related topics on the error term in the asymptotic formula for $\sum _{n\leq x}r(n)$. As a new problem, we deduce a ‘truncated Voronoï formula’ for the error term in the asymptotic formula for $\sum _{n\leq x}R_{(1,1)}(n)$. As a direct application, we show the mean square for the error term in our new problem.

Dynamical Interpretation

Let $G$ be a topological group, let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$ be a continuous endomorphism of $G$ and let $H$ be a closed $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$-invariant subgroup of $G$. We study whether the topological entropy is an additive invariant, that is, $$\begin{eqnarray}h_{\text{top}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})=h_{\text{top}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}\restriction _{H})+h_{\text{top}}(\bar{\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}}),\end{eqnarray}$$ where $\bar{\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}}:G/H\rightarrow G/H$ is the map induced by $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$. We concentrate on the case when $G$ is totally disconnected locally compact and $H$ is either compact or normal. Under these hypotheses, we show that the above additivity property holds true whenever $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}H=H$ and $\ker (\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})\leq H$. As an application, we give a dynamical interpretation of the scale $s(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})$ by showing that $\log s(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})$ is the topological entropy of a suitable map induced by $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$. Finally, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the equality $\log s(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})=h_{\text{top}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})$ to hold.
