Conjecture on dimension of Bernoulli convolutions from Pisot conjugates

About 6 years old · traced to

Let νβ1\nu_{\beta_1} denote the Bernoulli convolution associated with β1\beta_1. Suppose that β1∈(1,2)\beta_1\in(1,2), β1≠(1+5)/2\beta_1\neq(1+\sqrt{5})/2, and that β1\beta_1 has a real conjugate β2\beta_2 such that 1/∣β2∣1/|\beta_2| is a Pisot number. Dimension conjecture. We conjecture that

dim⁡(νβ1)=1.\dim(\nu_{\beta_1})=1.

This concerns parameters whose reciprocal conjugate is Pisot and predicts full Hausdorff dimension for the corresponding Bernoulli convolution. The supplied text gives no resolution status.
