We prove that all algebraic bases $\beta$ allow an eventually periodic representations of the elements of $\mathbb Q(\beta)$ with a finite alphabet of digits $\mathcal A$. Moreover, the classification of bases allowing that those…

We present a study of the problem of finiteness of the $\beta$-expansions for the set of natural numbers, condition $F_1$ in brief, for three families of Pisot numbers for which the $\beta$-expansion of 1 is not a non-decreasing sequence.…

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…

From the works of Rauzy and Thurston, we know how to construct (multiple) tilings of some Euclidean space using the conjugates of a Pisot unit $\beta$ and the greedy $\beta$-transformation. In this paper, we consider different…

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…

We study periodic representations in number systems with an algebraic base $\beta$ (not a rational integer). We show that if $\beta$ has no Galois conjugate on the unit circle, then there exists a finite integer alphabet $\mathcal A$ such…

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…

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 $\beta\in(1,2)$. Each $x\in[0,\frac{1}{\beta-1}]$ can be represented in the form \[ x=\sum_{k=1}^\infty \epsilon_k\beta^{-k}, \] where $\epsilon_k\in\{0,1\}$ for all $k$ (a $\beta$-expansion of $x$). If $\beta>\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}$, then,…

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…

In [Bak] the first author proved that for any $\beta\in (1,\beta_{KL})$ every $x\in(0,\frac{1}{\beta-1})$ has a simply normal $\beta$-expansion, where $\beta_{KL}\approx 1.78723$ is the Komornik-Loreti constant. This result is complemented…

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…
