An improved result on irregularities in distribution of sequences of integers

John H. Hodges (1988)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

In 1972 the author used a result of K.F. Roth on irregularities in distribution of sequences of real numbers to prove an analogous result related to the distribution of sequences of integers in prescribed residue classes. Here, a 1972 result of W.M. Schmidt, which is an improvement of Roth's result, is used to obtain an improved result for sequences of integers.

Applications de la notion d'entropie au développement d'un nombre réel dans une base de Pisot

Anne Bertrand-Mathis (1985)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Soit θ un nombre de Pisot de degré s  ; nous avons montré précédemment que l’endomorphisme du tore T s dont θ est valeur propre est facteur du θ -shift bilatéral par une application continue q s  ; nous prouvons ici (théorème 1) que l’application q s conserve l’entropie de toute mesure invariante sur le θ -shift. Ceci permet de définir l’entropie d’un nombre dans la base θ et d’en étudier la stabilité. Nous généralisons également des résultats de Kamae, Rauzy et Bernay.

Arithmetics in numeration systems with negative quadratic base

Zuzana Masáková, Tomáš Vávra (2011)

Kybernetika

We consider positional numeration system with negative base - β , as introduced by Ito and Sadahiro. In particular, we focus on arithmetical properties of such systems when β is a quadratic Pisot number. We study a class of roots β > 1 of polynomials x 2 - m x - n , m n 1 , and show that in this case the set Fin ( - β ) of finite ( - β ) -expansions is closed under addition, although it is not closed under subtraction. A particular example is β = τ = 1 2 ( 1 + 5 ) , the golden ratio. For such β , we determine the exact bound on the number of fractional digits...
