Factorisation des polynômes à plusieurs variables à coefficients entiers
For define the functionwhere is the scalar product of the vectors and . If each orbit of ends up at , we call a shift radix system. It is a well-known fact that each orbit of ends up periodically if the polynomial associated to is contractive. On the other hand, whenever this polynomial has at least one root outside the unit disc, there exist starting vectors that give rise to unbounded orbits. The present paper deals with the remaining situations of periodicity properties of...
In a recent work we gave some estimations for exponential sums of the form , where Λ denotes the von Mangoldt function, f a digital function, and β a real parameter. The aim of this work is to show how these results can be used to study the statistical properties of digital functions along prime numbers.
Expansions in noninteger bases often appear in number theory and probability theory, and they are closely connected to ergodic theory, measure theory and topology. For two-letter alphabets the golden ratio plays a special role: in smaller bases only trivial expansions are unique, whereas in greater bases there exist nontrivial unique expansions. In this paper we determine the corresponding critical bases for all three-letter alphabets and we establish the fractal nature of these bases in dependence...
We consider positional numeration systems with negative real base , where , and study the extremal representations in these systems, called here the greedy and lazy representations. We give algorithms for determination of minimal and maximal -representation with respect to the alternate order. We also show that both extremal representations can be obtained as representations in the positive base with a non-integer alphabet. This enables us to characterize digit sequences admissible as greedy...
