ON NORMAL NUMBERS

A real number α is said to be normal to base 10 if, for every natural number L; each finite sequence of L digits appears in the decimals of α with frequency 1=10L: Even intuitive results concerning normal numbers presents complicated formalizations and to decide whether a given num...

Sumario:A real number &#945; is said to be normal to base 10 if, for every natural number L; each finite sequence of L digits appears in the decimals of &#945; with frequency 1=10L: Even intuitive results concerning normal numbers presents complicated formalizations and to decide whether a given number is normal or not is sometimes almost impossible. In this paper we prove that if &#951; = 0; a1a2a3a4... is a normal number, then <img border=0 width=14 height=22 id="_x0000_i1026" src="http:/fbpe/img/proy/v25n1/1.jpg" > or = 0; a1a1a2a1a2a3a1a2a3a4... is also normal. On the other hand, if &#951; fails to be normal, there are some technical difficulties in order to decide whether <img border=0 width=14 height=22 id="_x0000_i1027" src="http:/fbpe/img/proy/v25n1/1.jpg">is normal or not, and we also discuss the normality (or not) of <img border=0 width=14 height=22 id="_x0000_i1028" src="http:/fbpe/img/proy/v25n1/1.jpg">when &#951; fails to be normal
