Abstract Statistical properties are studied for certain sequences based on the arithmetic of totally ramified extensions of the rational numbers. A simplified exponential representation is found. The arithmetic cross-correlations are shown in some cases to vanish identically. Bounds on the distribution of subsequences are found.
