Abstract

Using a property of generalized characters, we first prove that two Riesz products with constant coefficients and distinct Fourier spectra are mutually singular. IfS r (n) denotes the sum of digits in ther-adic representation of the integern, the same technique allows us to establish the mutual singularity of the spectral measures of the sequences: α(n)=exp[2iπaS p (n)],β(n)=exp[2iπbS q (n)], for every pair of integersp≠q, a, b being real numbers such thata(p−1)∉ {tiZ} andb(q−1)∉Z. This result has been proved by T. Kamae whenp andq are two relatively prime integers.
