Conjecture on the occurrence of every digit in algebraic irrational expansions
Let be a real irrational algebraic number, let be a positive integer, and let be an integer satisfying . The -ary expansion of is the expansion of in base , whose digits belong to . Digit-occurrence conjecture. The digit occurs at least once in the -ary expansion of . This is a very weak expected property of expansions of irrational algebraic numbers; the source notes that even explicit examples for which a specified digit occurs infinitely often are not known.
