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…
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 $\be\in(1,2)$. Each $x\in I_\be:=[0,\frac{1}{\be-1}]$ can be represented in the form \[ x=\sum_{k=1}^\infty a_k\be^{-k}, \] where $a_k\in\{0,1\}$ for all $k$ (a $\be$-expansion of $x$). It was shown in \cite{S} that a.e. $x\in I_\be$…
In a recent paper of Feng and Sidorov they show that for $\beta\in(1,\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2})$ the set of $\beta$-expansions grows exponentially for every $x\in(0,\frac{1}{\beta-1})$. In this paper we study this growth rate further. We also…

Let $\beta>1$. For $x \in [0,\infty)$, we have so-called the $\beta$-expansion of $x$ in base $\beta$ as follows: $$x= \sum_{j \leq k} x_{j}\beta^{j} = x_{k}\beta^{k}+ \cdots + x_{1}\beta+x_{0}+x_{-1}\beta^{-1} + x_{-2}\beta^{-2} + \cdots$$…
Let $1<\beta<2$. Given any $x\in[0, (\beta-1)^{-1}]$, a sequence $(a_n)\in\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ is called a $\beta$-expansion of $x$ if $x=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a_n\beta^{-n}.$ For any $k\geq 1$ and any $(b_1b_2\cdots b_k)\in\{0,1\}^{k}$, if…
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…
Let $\beta>1$ be a non-integer. First we show that Lebesgue almost every number has a $\beta$-expansion of a given frequency if and only if Lebesgue almost every number has infinitely many $\beta$-expansions of the same given frequency.…
We study rational numbers with purely periodic R\'enyi $\beta$-expansions. For bases $\beta$ satisfying $\beta^2=a\beta+b$ with $b$ dividing $a$, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for $\gamma(\beta)=1$, i.e., that all rational…
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…
For an alternate base $\boldsymbol{\beta}=(\beta_0,\ldots,\beta_{p-1})$, we show that if all rational numbers in the unit interval $[0,1)$ have periodic expansions with respect to the $p$ shifts of $\boldsymbol{\beta}$, then the bases…
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…
We study real numbers $\beta$ with the curious property that the $\beta$-expansion of all sufficiently small positive rational numbers is purely periodic. It is known that such real numbers have to be Pisot numbers which are units of the…
Let $\beta > 1$ be a real number and $(\epsilon_1(x, \beta), \epsilon_2(x, \beta), \ldots)$ be the $\beta$-expansion of a point $x \in (0, 1]$. For all $x \in (0,1]$, let $A(D(x))$ be the set of accumulation points of $\frac{-\log_\beta…
Let $\beta > 1$ be a real number and $x \in [0,1)$ be an irrational number. We denote by $k_n(x)$ the exact number of partial quotients in the continued fraction expansion of $x$ given by the first $n$ digits in the $\beta$-expansion of $x$…
In this paper we study digit frequencies in the setting of expansions in non-integer bases, and self-affine sets with non-empty interior. Within expansions in non-integer bases we show that if $\beta\in(1,1.787\ldots)$ then every…
Given a real number $x>0$, we determine $q_s(x):=\inf\mathscr{U}(x)$, where $\mathscr{U}(x)$ is the set of all bases $q\in(1,2]$ for which $x$ has a unique expansion of $0$'s and $1$'s. We give an explicit description of $q_s(x)$ for…
Given $\beta>1$ and $\alpha\in[0,1)$, let $T_{\beta, \alpha}(x)=\beta x+\alpha\pmod 1$. Then under the map $T_{\beta,\alpha}$ each $x\in[0,1]$ has an \emph{intermediate $\beta$-expansion} of the form…
A beta expansion is the analogue of the base 10 representation of a real number, where the base may be a non-integer. Although the greedy beta expansion of 1 using a non-integer base is in general infinitely long and non-repeating, it is…
