Accumulation-point conjecture for quotient values of binary sequences
Accumulation-point conjecture for quotient values of binary sequences
Let be a binary sequence that is not eventually periodic. Suppose that the set of return lengths is finite, and that
is infinite. Let be the sequence defined by the paper's equation for , and let denote its set of quotient values. Accumulation-point conjecture. For almost all pairs in the sense of asymptotic density, the set has infinitely many accumulation points. More precisely, its set of accumulation points in is homeomorphic either to a union of the Cantor set and a finite set or to the whole set . The conjecture concerns the structure of quotient values generated by non-eventually-periodic binary sequences; the asserted almost-everywhere conclusion and the alternatives for the accumulation set remain unproved in the supplied text.
