Let beta be an hyperbolic algebraic integer of modulus greater than 1. Lot A be a finite set of Q[beta] and D-beta = {(a(i), b(i))(igreater than or equal to0) is an element of (A x A)(N) \ Sigma(i=0)(infinity) a(i)beta(-i)}. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for D-beta to be sofic. As a consequence, we obtain a result due to Thurston (see Corollary 1). We also treat the case where the set of digits A is given by the greedy algorithm and study the connection with the beta-shift.
