Pisot numbers are real algebraic integers bigger than 1, whose other conjugates have all modulus smaller than 1. In this paper we deal with the algorithmic problem of finding the smallest Pisot unit generating a given number field. We first…

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…

We compare two sets of (infinite) binary sequences whose suffixes satisfy extremal conditions: one occurs when studying iterations of a unimodal continuous map from the unit interval into itself, but it also characterizes univoque real…

Let $\beta >1$ be an integer or generally a Pisot number. Put $T(x) = \{ \beta x \}$ on $[0,1]$ and let $S: [0,1]\to [0,1]$ be a piecewise linear transformation whose slopes have the form $\pm \beta^m$ with positive integers $m$. We give…

Univoque numbers are real numbers $\lambda > 1$ such that the number 1 admits a unique expansion in base $\lambda$, i.e., a unique expansion $1 = \sum_{j \geq 0} a_j \lambda^{-(j+1)}$, with $a_j \in \{0, 1, ..., \lceil \lambda \rceil -1\}$…

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…

We prove the Pisot Conjecture for beta-substitutions: If beta is a Pisot number, the tiling dynamical system associated with the beta-substitution has pure discrete spectrum. As corollaries: (1) arithmetical coding of the hyperbolic…

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…

We show that the number $\alpha=(1+\sqrt{3+2\sqrt{5}})/2$ with minimal polynomial $x^4-2x^3+x-1$ is the only Pisot number whose four distinct conjugates $\alpha_1,\alpha_2,\alpha_3,\alpha_4$ satisfy the additive relation…

For applications to cryptography, it is important to represent numbers with a small number of non-zero digits (Hamming weight) or with small absolute sum of digits. The problem of finding representations with minimal weight has been solved…

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…

Motivated by multiplication algorithms based on redundant number representations, we study representations of an integer $n$ as a sum $n=\sum_k \epsilon_k U_k$, where the digits $\epsilon_k$ are taken from a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ and…

An explicit upper bound is established for the least non-trivial integer zero of an arbitrary cubic form $C \in \mathbb{Z}[X_1,...,X_n],$ provided that $n \geq 14.$

We show that there are sets of $n$ points in the plane with $n$ arbitrarily large that contain more than $n^{1.014}$ pairs of points separated by a distance exactly $1$. This improves on very recent work of a team at OpenAI, who proved the…

Much has been written about expansions of real numbers in noninteger bases. Particularly, for a finite alphabet $\{0,1,\dots,\alpha\}$ and a real number (base) $1<\beta<\alpha+1$, the so-called {\em univoque set} of numbers which have a…

We define and study a transform whose iterates bring to the fore interesting relations between Pisot numbers and primes. Although the relations we describe are general, they take a particular form in the Pisot limit points. We give three…

We shall give an explicit upper bound for the smallest prime factor of multiperfect numbers of the form $N=p_1^{\alpha_1}\cdots p_s^{\alpha_s} q_1^{\beta_1}\cdots q_t^{\beta_t}$ with $\beta_1, \ldots, \beta_t$ bounded by a given constant.…

This paper is concerned with the diophantine system, $\sum_{i=1}^{s_1} x_i^r=\sum_{i=1}^{s_2} y_i^r,\, r=1,\,2,\,\ldots,\,k, $ where $s_1$ and $s_2$ are integers such that the total number of terms on both sides, that is, $s_1+s_2,$ is as…

We study periodic expansions in positional number systems with a base $\beta\in\C,\ |\beta|>1$, and with coefficients in a finite set of digits $\A\subset\C.$ We are interested in determining those algebraic bases for which there exists…

We use the language of Lie pseudoalgebras to gain information about the representation theory of the simple infinite-dimensional linearly compact Lie superalgebra of exceptional type $E(5,10)$. This technology allows us to prove that the…
