Résumé
Abstract

Soit $b ⩾ 2$ un entier. Au moyen de résultats de la combinatoire des mots, nous caractérisons l'ensemble des nombres réels $ξ > 0$ tels que les parties fractionnaires ${ξ b^{n}}$ , $n ⩾ 0$ , appartiennent toutes à un intervalle semi-ouvert ou ouvert de longueur $1 / b$ . La longueur d'un tel intervalle ne peut pas être plus petite, c'est-à-dire, quel que soit le nombre irrationnel ξ, aucun intervalle de longueur strictement inférieure à $1 / b$ ne contient toutes les parties fractionnaires ${ξ b^{n}}$ , $n ⩾ 0$ .

Let $b ⩾ 2$ be an integer. In terms of combinatorics on words we describe all irrational numbers $ξ > 0$ with the property that the fractional parts ${ξ b^{n}}$ , $n ⩾ 0$ , all belong to a semi-open or an open interval of length $1 / b$ . The length of such an interval cannot be smaller, that is, for irrational ξ, the fractional parts ${ξ b^{n}}$ , $n ⩾ 0$ , cannot all belong to an interval of length smaller than $1 / b$ .
