Abstract: | Let F p,t (n) denote the number of the coefficients of (x 1+1x 2+...+x t ) j , 0 ≤j≤n− 1, which are not divisible by the prime p. Define G p,t (n) = F p,t /n θ and β(p,t) = lim infF p,t )(n)/n θ, where θ = (log)/(log p). In this paper, we mainly prove that G p,t can be extended to a continuous function on ℝ+, and the function G p,t is nowhere monotonic. Both the set of differential points of the function G p,t and the set of non-differential points of the function G p,t are dense in ℝ+. Received February 18, 2000, Accepted December 7, 2000 |
