Abstract: Let $r$ and $s$ be multiplicatively independent positive integers. We establish that the $r$-ary expansion and the $s$-ary expansion of an irrational real number, viewed as infinite words on $0,1,ldots,r-1$ and $0,1,ldots,s-1$, respectively, cannot have simultaneously a low block complexity. In particular, they cannot be both Sturmian words.
