Abstract: We introduce and study series expansions of real numbers with an arbitrary Cantor real base $$, which we call $$-representations. In doing so, we generalize both representations of real numbers in real bases and through Cantor series. We show fundamental properties of $$-representations, each of which extends existing results on representations in a real base. In particular, we prove a generalization of Parry's theorem characterizing sequences of nonnegative integers that are the greedy $$-representations of some real number in the interval $[0,1)$. We pay special attention to periodic Cantor real bases, which we call alternate bases. In this case, we show that the $$-shift is sofic if and only if all quasi-greedy $$-expansions of $1$ are ultimately periodic, where $$ is the $i$-th shift of the Cantor real base $$.
