Peres.\" After a review of basic properties to familiarize the reader with the ideas of heaviness, general principles of heaviness in symbolic dynamics are introduced. The classical Morse sequence is used to study a specific example of heaviness in a system with nontrivial rational eigenvalues. To contrast, Sturmian sequences are examined, including a new condition for a sequence to be Sturmian.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-06-22T13:34:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37B10" ], "keywords": [ "symbolic dynamics", "sturmian systems", "substitution", "nontrivial rational eigenvalues", "heaviness refers" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0906.4003R" } } }
