Optimal number representations in negative base

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: For a given base gamma and a digit set mathcalB we consider optimal representations of a number x, as defined by Dajani at al. in 2012. For a non-integer negative base and the digit set we derive the transformation which generates the optimal representation, if it exists. We show that -- unlike the case of negative integer base -- almost no x has an optimal representation. For a positive base and the alphabet we provide an alternative proof of statements obtained by Dajani et al.
