An example of a computable absolutely normal number
... Moreover, every rational r is not normal to any base q ≥ 2 [4]: the fractional expansion of r in base q will eventually repeat, say with a period of k, in which case the number r is about as far as being normal to the base q k as it can be. The first example of an absolutely normal number was given ...

4.1 Reduction theory
... Lagrange introduced the notion of reduced forms, and the point is the following. Theorem 4.1.6. Any (positive definite) form Q is properly equivalent to a unique reduced form. Proof. First we will show Q is properly equivalent to a reduced form ax2 + bxy + cy 2 . Suppose |b| is minimal such that the ...
