    It is known that any Pisot substitution can be associated with a bounded set with interesting properties, called the Rauzy fractal. The set is obtained by projection of the broken line associated with an infinite fixed point. Two substitutions having the same incidence matrix can have different Rauzy fractals. The author proves in the main result of the paper, that is Theorem 1.3, that if \(\sigma_1\) and \(\sigma_2\) are two irreducible and unimodular Pisot substitutions with the same incidence matrix and \({\mathcal R}_1\), \({\mathcal R}_2\) are, respectively, their associated Rauzy fractals, \({\mathcal R}_1\) having 0 as an exclusive inner point, then the closure of the intersection of the interiors of \({\mathcal R}_1\) and \({\mathcal R}_2\) has a strictly positive measure and is a substitutive set. The paper is well written and the subject is very interesting.
