HAUSDORFF DIMENSION OF THE EXCEPTIONAL SETS CONCERNING THE RUN-LENGTH FUNCTION OF BETA-EXPANSION

Abstract

For any real number [Formula: see text], and any [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] be the maximal length of consecutive zeros in the first [Formula: see text] digits of the [Formula: see text]-expansion of [Formula: see text]. Recently, Tong, Yu and Zhao [On the length of consecutive zero digits of [Formula: see text]-expansions, Int. J. Number Theory 12 (2016) 625–633] proved that for any [Formula: see text], for Lebesgue almost all [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] In this paper, we quantify the size of the set of [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text] grows to infinity in a general speed. More precisely, for any increasing function [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] tending to [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], we show that for any [Formula: see text], the set [Formula: see text] has full Hausdorff dimension.
