Mar 8, 2016 at 20:52 comment added Renart Oh yeah i see it now ! nice benford's law illustration by the way.
Mar 8, 2016 at 17:33 comment added Sean Eberhard Sure. It's a nice question once you see it. Actually look for a power of 2 starting 7777777..., and to get this consider the sequence $\log_{10}(2^n)$ modulo $1$.
Mar 8, 2016 at 13:14 comment added Renart Thanks for the answer ! i've read a little bit of the book "uniform distribution of sequences" by L. Kuipers and H. niederreiterbut but I still don't know how to answer your question 6... Could you give me a hint/short answer ?
Feb 20, 2016 at 22:31 comment added Sean Eberhard For more than you ever wanted to know about question 4, follow the links at mathoverflow.net/questions/231606/…. However, I think this question is reasonable: 4'. Show that $\{z: g_n(\alpha)\to z~\text{for some}~\alpha\} = \{z: |z|\leq 1\}$.

Feb 11, 2016 at 15:36 comment added Sean Eberhard I wrote down question 4 thinking that the answer was going to be obviously the whole unit disk or obviously just $\{0,1\}$, or something like that, but actually I think the question is rather subtle! Let $L$ be the set. Then I can prove that $L$ is a closed, convex subset of the unit disk whose boundary touches the unit circle only at $1$ and is tangent to it there.
