The growth rate and dimension theory of beta-expansions

In a recent paper of Feng and Sidorov they show that for β∈(1,(1+5√)/2) the set of β-expansions grows exponentially for every x∈(0,1/(β−1)). In this paper we study this growth rate further. We also consider the set of β-expansions from a dimension theory perspective.

An example in Beurling's theory of generalised primes

In this paper we prove some connections between the growth of a function and its Mellin transform and apply these to study an explicit example in the theory of Beurling primes.
