Title: An excursion with beta-expansions
Abstract:
In this talk we give an overview of the various properties of expansions in non-integer base.
One important property is the non-uniqueness of the expansion. We give various deterministic and random algorithms that generate such expansions, and we highlight their ergodic properties. We end the talk with an amusing application in A/D conversion and fractal geometry.
Colloquium coordinators are Prof.dr. A.C.D. van Enter (e-mail : A.C.D.van.Enter@rug.nl) and
Dr. A.V. Kiselev (e-mail: a.v.kiselev rug.nl )
