Substitutions in Dynamics, Arithmetics and Combinatorics
A certain category of infinite strings of letters on a finite alphabet is presented here, chosen among the 'simplest' possible one may build, both because they are very deterministic and because they are built by simple rules (a letter is replaced by a wo

Authors’ name: N. stands for "no nomen". Pytheas was the Greek navigator and scientist (4th century B.C.) who became one of the historical heroes of the city of Marseille (Massalia). Phileas Fogg was the excentric and phlegmatic hero of Jules Verne who travelled around the world by "jumbing mathematically from train to boat, never forgetting his sense of humour."

Preface
There are two basic ways of constructing dynamical systems. One approach is to take an already existing system from the vast reserve arising in biology, physics, geometry, or probability; such systems are typically rather complex and equipped with rigid structures (a “natural” system is generally a “smooth” system). Alternatively one can build a system by hand u
