Abstract: Fix an alphabet $A=0,1,dots,M$ with $MinmathbbN$. The univoque set $mathscrU$ of bases $qin(1,M+1)$ in which the number $1$ has a unique expansion over the alphabet $A$ has been well studied. It has Lebesgue measure zero but Hausdorff dimension one. This paper investigates how the set $mathscrU$ is distributed over the interval $(1,M+1)$ by determining the limit ${\displaystyle }$f(q):=lim_{delta o 0}dim_H�ig(mathscr{U}cap(q-delta,q+delta)�ig)${\displaystyle }$ for all $qin(1,M+1)$. We show in particular that $f(q)>0$ if and only if $$, where $mathscrC$ is an uncountable set of Hausdorff dimension zero, and $f$ is continuous at those (and only those) points where it vanishes. Furthermore, we introduce a countable family of pairwise disjoint subsets of $mathscrU$ called {emph relative bifurcation sets}, and use them to give an explicit expression for the Hausdorff dimension of the intersection of $mathscrU$ with any interval, answering a question of Kalle et al.~[{emph arXiv:1612.07982; to appear in Acta Arithmetica}, 2018]. Finally, the methods developed in this paper are used to give a complete answer to a question of the first author [{emph Adv. Math.}, 308:575--598, 2017] about strongly univoque sets.
