Let $q\in(1,2)$. A $q$-expansion of a number $x$ in $[0,\frac{1}{q-1}]$ is a sequence $(\delta_i)_{i=1}^\infty\in\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ satisfying $$ x=\sum_{i=1}^\infty\frac{\delta_i}{q^i}.$$ Let $\mathcal{B}_{\aleph_0}$ denote the set of…

For a given positive integer $m$, let $A=\set{0,1,...,m}$ and $q \in (m,m+1)$. A sequence $(c_i)=c_1c_2 ...$ consisting of elements in $A$ is called an expansion of $x$ if $\sum_{i=1}^{\infty} c_i q^{-i}=x$. It is known that almost every…
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 $q>1$ we consider expansions in base $q$ over the alphabet $\{0,1,q\}$. Let $\mathcal{U}_q$ be the set of $x$ which have a unique $q$-expansions. For $k=2, 3,\cdots,\aleph_0$ let $\mathcal{B}_k$ be the set of bases $q$ for which there…

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…
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…
In this paper we answer several questions raised by Sidorov on the set $\mathcal B_2$ of bases in which there exist numbers with exactly two expansions. In particular, we prove that the set $\mathcal B_2$ is closed, and it contains both…
Given two real numbers $q_0,q_1$ with $q_0, q_1 > 1$ satisfying $q_0+q_1 \ge q_0q_1$, we call a sequence $(d_i)$ with $d_i\in \{0,1\}$ a $(q_0,q_1)$-expansion or a double-base expansion of a real number $x$ if \[…
Given some integer $m \geq 3$, we find the first explicit collection of countably many intervals in $(1,2)$ such that for any $q$ in one of these intervals, the set of points with exactly $m$ base $q$ expansions is nonempty and moreover has…
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…
