Description

A $\widetilde{Q}-$representation of real numbers is introduced as a generalization of the $p-$adic and $Q-$representations. It is shown that the $\widetilde{Q}-$representation may be used as a convenient tool for the construction and study of fractals and sets with complicated local structure. Distributions of random variables $ξ$ with independent $\widetilde{Q}-$symbols are studied in details. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the probability measures $μ_ξ$ associated with $ξ$ to be either absolutely continuous or singular (resp. pure continuous, or pure point) are found in terms of the $\widetilde{Q}-$representation. In addition the metric-topological properties for the distribution of $ξ$ are investigated. A number of examples are presented.
