Symbolic dynamics and number theory for tent maps and beta transformations. (English) Zbl 1132.37304

Summary: Our goal in this paper is to present some results which relate symbolic dynamics associated to iterated maps of the interval and number theory. The study is based on the orbit structure of piecewise linear maps, tent map and \(\beta\)-transformations.
