On-line finite automata for addition in some numeration systems
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 August 2002
Abstract
We consider numeration systems where the base is anegative integer, or a complex number which is a root of anegative integer.We give parallel algorithms for addition in these numeration systems,from which we derive on-line algorithms realized by finite automata. A general construction relating addition in base βand addition in base βm is given.Results on addition in base $\beta=\sqrt[m]{b}$ , where b is a relative integer, follow.We also show that addition in base the golden ratiois computable by an on-line finite automaton, but is notparallelizable.
