Expansions in non-integer bases have been extensively investigated since a pioneering work of R\'enyi. We introduce a more general framework of alphabet-base systems that also includes Pedicini's general alphabets and the multiple-base…
Expansions in non-integer bases have been investigated abundantly since their introduction by R\'enyi. It was discovered by Erd\H{o}s et al. that the sets of numbers with a unique expansion have a much more complex structure than in the…
In this paper we study the expansions of real numbers in positive and negative real base as introduced by R\'enyi, and Ito & Sadahiro, respectively. In particular, we compare the sets $\mathbb{Z}_\beta^+$ and $\mathbb{Z}_{-\beta}$ of…
Alternate bases are a numeration system that generalizes the R\'enyi numeration system. It is common in this context to construct examples or counter-examples by specifying the expansions of $1$ in the desired system. While it is easy to…
We introduce and study non-uniform expansions of real numbers, given by two non-integer bases.
The partial sums of integer sequences that count the occurrences of a specific pattern in the binary expansion of positive integers have been investigated by different authors since the 1950s. In this note, we introduce generalized pattern…
Expansion of real numbers is a basic research topic in number theory. Usually we expand real numbers in one given base. In this paper, we begin to systematically study expansions in multiple given bases in a reasonable way, which is a…
Similarly to Parry's characterization of $\beta$-expansions of real numbers in real bases $\beta > 1$, Ito and Sadahiro characterized digital expansions in negative bases, by the expansions of the endpoints of the fundamental interval.…
This is a survey of some of Erd\H os's work on bases in additive number theory.
For a positive integer $m$ let $\Omega _m=\{0,1, \cdots , m\}$ and \begin{align*} \mathcal B_2(m)=&\left \{q\in(1,m+1]: \text{$\exists\; x\in [0, m/(q-1)]$ has exactly }\right. \\ &\left. \text{two different $q$-expansions w.r.t. $\Omega…
Glendinning and Sidorov discovered an important feature of the Komornik-Loreti constant $q'\approx1.78723$ in non-integer base expansions on two-letter alphabets: in bases $1<q<q'$ only countably numbers have unique expansions, while for…
In this paper, our main focus is expressing real numbers on the non-integer bases. We denote those bases as $\beta$'s, which is also a real number and $\beta \in (1,2)$. This project has 3 main parts. The study of expansions of real numbers…
We introduce and study expansions of real numbers with respect to two integer bases.
Since their introduction by Erd\H{o}s in 1950, covering systems (that is, finite collections of arithmetic progressions that cover the integers) have been extensively studied, and numerous questions and conjectures have been posed regarding…
Expansions in the Golden ratio base have been studied since a pioneering paper of R\'enyi more than sixty years ago. We introduce closely related expansions of a new type, based on the Fibonacci sequence, and we show that in some sense they…
Let A be a set of nonnegative integers. For every nonnegative integer n and positive integer h, let r_{A}(n,h) denote the number of representations of n in the form n = a_1 + a_2 + ... + a_h, where a_1, a_2,..., a_h are elements of A and…
Consider $\alpha \in \Q(i)$ satisfying $|\alpha| >1$. Let $\D = \{0,1,\ldots,|a_0|-1\}$, where $a_0$ is the independent coefficient of the minimal primitive polynomial of $\alpha$. We introduce a way of expanding complex numbers in base…
We consider questions posed in a recent paper of Mandayam, Bandyopadhyay, Grassl and Wootters [10] on the nature of "unextendible mutually unbiased bases." We describe a conceptual framework to study these questions, using a connection…
Let $r$ and $s$ be multiplicatively independent positive integers. We establish that the $r$-ary expansion and the $s$-ary expansion of an irrational real number, viewed as infinite words on $\{0, 1, \ldots , r-1\}$ and $\{0, 1, \ldots ,…
Given two real numbers $q_0,q_1>1$ satisfying $q_0+q_1\geq q_0q_1$ and two real numbers $d_0\ne d_1$, by a {double-base expansion} of a real number $x$ we mean a sequence $(i_k)\in \{0,1\}^{\infty}$ such that \begin{equation*}…
