Let $q > 1$ be a real number and let $m=m(q)$ be the largest integer smaller than $q$. It is well known that each number $x \in J_q:=[0, \sum_{i=1}^{\infty} m q^{-i}]$ can be written as $x=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}{c_i}q^{-i}$ with integer…
Let $q\in(1,2)$; it is known that each $x\in[0,1/(q-1)]$ has an expansion of the form $x=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_nq^{-n}$ with $a_n\in\{0,1\}$. It was shown in \cite{EJK} that if $q<(\sqrt5+1)/2$, then each $x\in(0,1/(q-1))$ has a continuum of…
For a real number $q\in(1,2)$ and $x\in[0,1/(q-1)]$, the infinite sequence $(d_i)$ is called a \emph{$q$-expansion} of $x$ if $$ x=\sum_{i=1}^\infty\frac{d_i}{q^i},\quad d_i\in\{0,1\}\quad\textrm{for all}~ i\ge 1. $$ For $m=1, 2, \cdots$ or…
Let $q\in(1,2)$ and $x\in[0,\frac1{q-1}]$. We say that a sequence $(\varepsilon_i)_{i=1}^{\infty}\in\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ is an expansion of $x$ in base $q$ (or a $q$-expansion) if \[ x=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}\varepsilon_iq^{-i}. \] For any…
Given a positive integer $M$ and a real number $q \in (1,M+1]$, an expansion of a real number $x \in \left[0,M/(q-1)\right]$ over the alphabet $A=\{0,1,\ldots,M\}$ is a sequence $(c_i) \in A^{\mathbb N}$ such that…
It was discovered some years ago that there exist non-integer real numbers $q>1$ for which only one sequence $(c_i)$ of integers $c_i \in [0,q)$ satisfies the equality $\sum_{i=1}^\infty c_iq^{-i}=1$. The set of such "univoque numbers" has…
Given $\beta\in(1,2)$ and $x\in[0,\frac{1}{\beta-1}]$, a sequence $(\epsilon_{i})_{i=1}^{\infty}\in\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ is called a $\beta$-expansion for $x$ if $$x=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}\frac{\epsilon_{i}}{\beta^{i}}.$$ In a recent article…
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…
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*}…

Let $M$ be a positive integer and $q\in (1, M+1]$. A $q$-expansion of a real number $x$ is a sequence $(c_i)=c_1c_2\cdots$ with $c_i\in \{0,1,\ldots, M\}$ such that $x=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}c_iq^{-i}$. In this paper we study the set…
We investigate optimal expansions of Kakeya sequences for the representation of real numbers. Expansions of Kakeya sequences generalize the expansions in non-integer bases and they display analogous redundancy phenomena. In this paper, we…

Fix integers $m\ge 2$, $n\ge 1$. We prove the existence of a bounded linear extension operator for $C^{m-1,1}(\R^n)$ with operator norm at most $\exp(\gamma D^k)$, where $D := \binom{m+n-1}{n}$ is the number of multiindices of length $n$…
