Dynamical strong Lehmer conjecture for Parry powers

Let 4τ101.17644\tau_{10}\approx 1.1764 be the Salem number defined by the minimal polynomial

L(x)=x10+x9x7x6x5x4x3+x+1.L(x)=x^{10}+x^9-x^7-x^6-x^5-x^4-x^3+x+1.

A Perron number is a real algebraic integer greater than 11 whose other algebraic conjugates have strictly smaller modulus, and a Parry number is a real number greater than 11 whose greedy expansion of 11 is eventually periodic.

Dynamical strong Lehmer conjecture. If 4β<τ1044\beta<\tau_{10}4 is a Perron number, then 4βn44\beta^n4 is a Parry number for only finitely many integers 4n44n4.

The claim is presented as a dynamical version of the strong Lehmer conjecture and is motivated by the preceding power results. Its resolution is not specified in the source.
