AbstractIn this article we consider the topology on the set of formal Laurent series induced by the ultrametric defined via the order. In particular, we establish that the product of formal Laurent series, considered in [GAN, X. X.—BUGAJEWSKI, D.:

AbstractFor any positive integer q≧2, let Fq be a finite field with q elements, Fq ((z-1)) be the field of all formal Laurent series in an inderminate z, I denote the valuation ideal z-1Fq [[z-1]] in the ring of formal power series Fq ((z-1)) normalized by P(l) = 1. For any x ∈ I, let the series be the Engel expansin of Laurent series of x. Grabner and Knopfmacher have shown that the P-measure of the set A(α) = {x ∞ I: limn→∞ deg an(x)/n = ά} is l when α = q/(q -l), where deg an(x) is the degree of polynomial an(x). In this paper, we prove that for any α ≧ l, A(α) has Hausdorff dimension l. Among other thing we also show that for any integer m, the following set B(m) = {x ∈ l: deg an+1(x) - deg an(x) = m for any n ≧ l} has Hausdorff dimension 1.

The aim of this paper is to characterize the formal power series which have purely periodic β-expansions in Pisot or Salem unit base under some condition. Furthermore, we will prove that if β is a quadratic Pisot unit base, then every rational f in the unit disk has a purely periodic β-expansion and discuss their periods.

Abstract.Dufresnoy and Pisot characterized the smallest Pisot number of degree n ≥ 3 by giving explicitly its minimal polynomial. In this paper, we translate Dufresnoy and Pisot’s result to the Laurent series case. The aim of this paper is to prove that the minimal polynomial of the smallest Pisot element (SPE) of degree n in the field of formal power series over a finite field is given by P(Y) = Yn–XYn-1–αn where α is the least element of the finite field 픽q\{0} (as a finite total ordered set). We prove that the sequence of SPEs of degree n is decreasing and converges to αX: Finally, we show how to obtain explicit continued fraction expansion of the smallest Pisot element over a finite field.

The generalisation of questions of the classic arithmetic has long been of interest. One line of questioning, introduced by Car in 1995, inspired by the equidistribution of the sequence n α n ∈ N where 0 < α < 1 , is the study of the sequence K 1 / l , where K is a polynomial having an l-th root in the field of formal power series. In this paper, we consider the sequence L ′ 1 / l , where L ′ is a polynomial having an l-th root in the field of formal power series and satisfying L ′ ≡ B   mod   C . Our main result is to prove the uniform distribution in the Laurent series case. Particularly, we prove the case for irreducible polynomials.

AbstractIn the context of Riordan arrays, the problem of determining the square root of a Bell matrix $$R={\mathcal {R}}(f(t)/t,\ f(t))$$ R = R ( f ( t ) / t , f ( t ) ) defined by a formal power series $$f(t)=\sum _{k \ge 0}f_kt^k$$ f ( t ) = ∑ k ≥ 0 f k t k with $$f(0)=f_0=0$$ f ( 0 ) = f 0 = 0 is presented. It is proved that if $$f^\prime (0)=1$$ f ′ ( 0 ) = 1 and $$f^{\prime \prime }(0)\ne 0$$ f ″ ( 0 ) ≠ 0 then there exists another Bell matrix $$H={\mathcal {R}}(h(t)/t,\ h(t))$$ H = R ( h ( t ) / t , h ( t ) ) such that $$H*H=R;$$ H ∗ H = R ; in particular, function h(t) is univocally determined by a symbolic computational method which in many situations allows to find the function in closed form. Moreover, it is shown that function h(t) is related to the solution of Schröder’s equation. We also compute a Riordan involution related to this kind of matrices.
