Normality conjecture for self-similar measures
Normality conjecture for self-similar measures
Let be an iterated function system of contracting similarities, and let be an integer. Suppose that
for some . A point is normal in base if every finite block of base- digits occurs in its expansion with the expected limiting frequency. Normality conjecture. Almost every is normal in base with respect to any non-atomic fully supported self-similar measure of . The conjecture is false without the stated irrationality assumption on the contraction ratio; thus the claim as stated is refuted, although the version under the irrationality hypothesis is the asserted result of interest.
