Random Noble Means Substitutions

  • Conference paper
Aperiodic Crystals

Abstract

The random local mixture of a family of primitive substitution rules with noble mean inflation multiplier is investigated. This extends the random Fibonacci example that was introduced by Godrèche and Luck in (J. Stat. Phys. 55:1–28, 1989). We discuss the structure of the corresponding dynamical systems, and determine the entropy, an ergodic invariant measure and diffraction spectra.
