Diophantine analysis in beta-dynamical systems and Hausdorff dimensions (Q908085): Difference between revisions

Historically, number-expansions came to the interest of the researchers beginning with the famous Gauss' hypothesis concerning the continuous-fraction-expansions of real numbers in the interval \([0,1]\). Kuzmin provided a systematic method of study of the corresponding expanding-operator. Later on Iosifescu, the reviewer and many others, using the dependence with complete connections, provided a new approach to a vast class of number expansions and the corresponding Gauss-type problems. Here the authors deal with number expansions, where the transformation operator is the so-called \(\beta\)-operator \((\beta>1)\), which associates each real number \(x\) of \([0,1]\) with the fractional part of \(\beta x\). \textit{A. Rényi} provided first a study of the above \(\beta\)-operators [Acta Math. Acad. Sci. Hung. 8, 477--493 (1957; Zbl 0079.08901)]. In the present paper, the authors prove that the Hausdorff dimension of a peculiar set, depending on \(n\in\mathbb{N}\), satisfies a type of 0-1 law.
