Multiple expansions of real numbers with digits set \0,1,q\

Abstract: For

q > 1

we consider expansions in base

q

over the alphabet

0, 1, q

. Let

m a t h c a l U_{q}

be the set of

x

which have a unique

q

-expansions. For

k = 2, 3, c d o t s, a l e p h_{0}

let

m a t h c a l B_{k}

be the set of bases

q

for which there exists

x

having

k

different

q

-expansions, and for

q i n m a t h c a l B_{k}

let

m a t h c a l U_{q}^{(k)}

be the set of all such

x

's which have

k

different

q

-expansions. In this paper we show that [ mathcal{B}_{aleph_0}=[2,infty),quad mathcal{B}_k=(q_c,infty)quad extrm{for any}quad kge 2, ] where

q_{c} a p p r o x 2.32472

is the appropriate root of

x^{3} - 3 x^{2} + 2 x - 1 = 0

. Moreover, we show that for any positive integer

k g e 2

and any

q i n m a t h c a l B_{k}

the Hausdorff dimensions of

m a t h c a l U_{q}^{(k)}

and

m a t h c a l U_{q}

are the same, i.e., [ dim_Hmathcal{U}_q^{(k)}=dim_Hmathcal{U}_qquad extrm{for any}quad kge 2. ] Finally, we conclude that the set of

x

having a continuum of

q

-expansions has full Hausdorff dimension.
