Structure and growth of ℝ-bonacci words
arXiv (Cornell University)(2023)
摘要
A binary word is called q-decreasing, for q>0, if every of its length
maximal factors of the form 0^a1^b, a>0, satisfies q · a > b. We
bijectively link q-decreasing words with certain prefixes of the cutting
sequence of the line y=qx. We show that the number of q-decreasing words of
length n grows as Φ(q)^n C_q for some constant C_q which depends on
q but not on n. We demonstrate that Φ(1) is the golden ratio,
Φ(2) is equal to the tribonacci constant, Φ(k) is (k+1)-bonacci
constant. Furthermore, we prove that the function Φ(q) is strictly
increasing, discontinuous at every positive rational point, exhibits a fractal
structure related to the Stern–Brocot tree and Minkowski's question mark
function.
