Abstract: We study alpha-adic expansions of numbers in an extension field, that is to say, left infinite representations of numbers in the positional numeration system with the base alpha, where alpha is an algebraic conjugate of a Pisot number . Based on a result of Bertrand and Schmidt, we prove that a number belongs to mathbbQ(alpha) if and only if it has an eventually periodic alpha-expansion. Then we consider alpha-adic expansions of elements of the extension ring mathbbZ[alpha1] when satisfies the so-called Finiteness property (F). In the particular case that is a quadratic Pisot unit, we inspect the unicity and/or multiplicity of alpha-adic expansions of elements of mathbbZ[alpha1]. We also provide algorithms to generate alpha-adic expansions of rational numbers.
