Title: Mysteries and marvels of rational base numeration systems
Jacques Sakarovitch CNRS / Paris Diderot University and Telecom ParisTech
Abstract: The definition of numeration systems with rational base, in a joint work with S. Akiyama and Ch. Frougny (Israel J. Math., 2008), has allowed to make some progress in a number theoretic problem, by means of automata theory and combinatorics of words. At the same time, it raised the problem of understanding the structure of the sets of the representations of the integers in these systems from the point of view of formal language theory.
At first sight, these sets look rather chaotic and do not fit well in the classical Chomsky hierarchy of languages. They all enjoy a property that makes them defeat, so to speak, any kind of iteration lemma. On the other hand, these sets also exhibit remarkable regularity properties.
During the recent years, these regularities have been studied in a series of joint papers with my student V. Marsault. In particular, we have shown that periodic signatures are characteristic of the representation languages in rational base numeration systems and studied, jointly with S. Akiyama, a kind of autosimilarity property that also leads to the construction of Cantor-like sets.
These languages still keep most of their mystery. The partial results which will be presented call for further investigations on the subject even stronger. ==========
