چکیده

We introduce a multidimensional continued fraction algorithm based on Arnoux-Rauzy and Poincaré algorithms, and we study its associated S-adic system. An S-adic system is made of infinite words generated by the composition of infinite sequences of substitutions with values in a given finite set of substitutions, together with some restrictions concerning the allowed sequences of substitutions, expressed in terms of a regular language. We prove that these words have a factor complexity p(n) with lim sup p(n)/n < 3, which provides a proof for the convergence of the associated algorithm by unique ergodicity.

Factor Complexity of S-adic sequences generated by the Arnoux-Rauzy-Poincaré Algorithm

The Arnoux-Rauzy-Poincaré multidimensional continued fraction algorithm is obtained by combining the Arnoux-Rauzy and Poincaré algorithms. It is a generalized Euclidean algorithm. Its three-dimensional linear version consists in subtracting the sum of the two smallest entries to the largest if possible (Arnoux-Rauzy step), and otherwise, in subtracting the smallest entry to the median and the m...

A Generalization of Sturmian Sequences; Combinatorial Structure and Transcendence∗

In this paper we study dynamical properties of a class of uniformly recurrent sequences on a k-letter alphabet with complexity p(n) = (k − 1)n + 1. These sequences, originally defined by P. Arnoux and G. Rauzy, are a natural generalization of the (binary) Sturmian sequences of Morse and Hedlund. We give two combinatorial algorithms for constructing characteristic Arnoux-Rauzy sequences. The fir...

Frequencies of Factors in Arnoux-rauzy Sequences

V. Berthé showed that the frequencies of factors in a Sturmian word of slope α, as well as the number of factors with a given frequency, can be expressed in terms of the continued fraction expansion of α. In this paper we describe a multi-dimensional continued fraction process associated with a class of sequences of (block) complexity kn+1 originally introduced by P. Arnoux and G. Rauzy. This v...

$3$-dimensional Continued Fraction Algorithms Cheat Sheets

Multidimensional Continued Fraction Algorithms are generalizations of the Euclid algorithm and find iteratively the gcd of two or more numbers. They are defined as linear applications on some subcone of R. We consider multidimensional continued fraction algorithms that acts symmetrically on the positive cone R+ for d = 3. We include well-known and old ones (Poincaré, Brun, Selmer, Fully Subtrac...

Balancedness of Arnoux-Rauzy and Brun Words

We study balancedness properties of words given by the Arnoux-Rauzy and Brun multi-dimensional continued fraction algorithms. We show that almost all Brun words on 3 letters and Arnoux-Rauzy words over arbitrary alphabets are finitely balanced; in particular, boundedness of the strong partial quotients implies balancedness. On the other hand, we provide examples of unbalanced Brun words on 3 le...
