The achievement set of generalized multigeometric sequences

Abstract

We study the topology of all possible subsums of the generalized multigeometric series $k_1f(x)+k_2f(x)+\dots+k_mf(x)+\dots + k_1f(x^n)+\dots+k_mf(x^n)+\dots,$ where $k_1, k_2, \dots, k_m$ are fixed positive real numbers and $f$ runs along a certain class of non-negative functions on the unit interval. We detect particular regions of this interval for which this achievement set is, respectively, a compact interval, a Cantor set and a Cantorval.
