Abstract:A natural number N is said to be palindromic if its binary representation reads the same forwards and backwards. In this paper we study the quotients of two palindromic numbers and answer some basic questions about the resulting sets of integers and rational numbers. For example, we show that the following problem is algorithmically decidable: given an integer N , determine if we can write N = A/B for palindromic numbers A and B. Given that N is representable, we find a bound on the size of the numerator of th… Show more
