On two notions of complexity of algebraic numbers

Number Theory 2023-09-19 v1

Abstract

we derive new, improved lower bounds for the block complexity of an irrational algebraic number and for the number of digit changes in the b-ary expansion of an irrational algebraic number. To this end, we apply a quantitative version of the Subspace Theorem due to Evertse and Schlickewei (2002).
