In this article, we investigate the $\beta$-expansions of real algebraic numbers. In particular, we give new lower bounds for the number of digit exchanges in the case where $\beta$ is a Pisot or Salem number. Moreover, we define a new…

It is known that for a uniform morphic sequence $\boldsymbol u = \langle u_n\rangle_{n=0}^\infty$ and an algebraic number $\beta$ such that $|\beta|>1$, the number $[\![\boldsymbol{u} ]\!]_\beta:=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{u_n}{\beta^n}$…

For $\beta > 1$, a sequence $(c_n)_{n \geq 1} \in \mathbb{Z}^{\mathbb{N}^+}$ with $0 \leq c_n < \beta$ is the \emph{beta expansion} of $x$ with respect to $\beta$ if $x = \sum_{n = 1}^\infty c_n\beta^{-n}$. Defining $d_\beta(x)$ to be the…

The main purpose of this paper is to study the arithmetical properties of values \(\sum_{m=0}^{\infty} \beta^{-w(m)}\), where \(\beta\) is a fixed Pisot or Salem number and \(w(m)\) (\(m=0,1,\ldots\)) are distinct sequences of nonnegative…

In the present article, we introduce beta-expansions in the ring $\mathbb{Z}_p$ of $p$-adic integers. We characterise the sets of numbers with eventually periodic and finite expansions.

Let $\beta>1$ and let $m>\be$ be an integer. Each $x\in I_\be:=[0,\frac{m-1}{\beta-1}]$ can be represented in the form \[ x=\sum_{k=1}^\infty \epsilon_k\beta^{-k}, \] where $\epsilon_k\in\{0,1,...,m-1\}$ for all $k$ (a $\beta$-expansion of…

Let $\beta>1$. For $x \in [0,\infty)$, we have so-called the $\beta$-expansion of $x$ in base $\beta$ as follows: $$x= \sum_{j \leq k} x_{j}\beta^{j} = x_{k}\beta^{k}+ \cdots + x_{1}\beta+x_{0}+x_{-1}\beta^{-1} + x_{-2}\beta^{-2} + \cdots$$…

We consider positional numeration system with negative base $-\beta$, as introduced by Ito and Sadahiro. In particular, we focus on arithmetical properties of such systems when $\beta$ is a quadratic Pisot number. We study a class of roots…

We consider continued fractions with partial quotients in the ring of integers of a quadratic number field $K$ and we prove a generalization to such continued fractions of the classical theorem of Lagrange. A particular example of these…

Let $\alpha,\beta \in \mathbb{R}_{>0}$ be such that $\alpha,\beta$ are quadratic and $\mathbb{Q}(\alpha)\neq \mathbb{Q}(\beta)$. Then every subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ definable in both $(\mathbb{R},{<},+,\mathbb{Z},x\mapsto \alpha x)$ and…

For a fairly general class of two-dimensional tiling substitutions, we prove that if the length expansion $\beta$ is a Pisot number, then the tilings defined by the substitution must be locally finite. We also give a simple example of a…

The seminal theorem of Cobham has given rise during the last 40 years to a lot of works around non-standard numeration systems and has been extended to many contexts. In this paper, as a result of fifteen years of improvements, we obtain a…

Let $\Gamma\subset \overline{\mathbb Q}^{\times}$ be a finitely generated multiplicative group of algebraic numbers. Let $\delta, \beta\in\overline{\mathbb Q}^\times$ be algebraic numbers with $\beta$ irrational. In this paper, we prove…

We prove that for any integers $\alpha, \beta > 1$, the existential fragment of the first-order theory of the structure $\langle \mathbb{Z}; 0,1,<, +, \alpha^{\mathbb{N}}, \beta^{\mathbb{N}}\rangle$ is decidable (where $\alpha^{\mathbb{N}}$…

Given $\beta\in(1,2)$, a $\beta$-expansion of a real $x$ is a power series in base $\beta$ with coefficients 0 and 1 whose sum equals $x$. The aim of this note is to study certain problems related to the universality and combinatorics of…

To a given Pisot unit $\beta$ we associate a finite abelian group whose size appears to be equal to the discriminant of $\beta$. We call it the Pisot group and find its representation in the two-sided $\beta$-compactum in the case of…

The subshift of finite type property (also known as the Markov property) is ubiquitous in dynamical systems and the simplest and most widely studied class of dynamical systems are $\beta$-shifts, namely transformations of the form…

Let $\beta,\epsilon \in (0,1]$, and $k \geq \exp(122 \max\{1/\beta,1/\epsilon\})$. We prove that if $A,B$ are subsets of a prime field $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$, and $|B| \geq p^{\beta}$, then there exists a sum of the form $$S = a_{1}B \pm \ldots…

The spectrum of a real number $\beta>1$ is the set $X^{m}(\beta)$ of $p(\beta)$ where $p$ ranges over all polynomials with coefficients restricted to ${\mathcal A}=\{0,1,\dots,m\}$. For a quadratic Pisot unit $\beta$, we determine the…

Let $\alpha, \beta$ be two relatively prime algebraic integers in a number field $K$ and $N$ be a positive integer. We show that the number of $n\in\{1,2,\dots,N\}$ such that the $\beta$-adic expansion of $\alpha^n$ omits a given digit is…
