Infinite products involving binary digit sums

Let $(u_n)_{n\ge 0}$ denote the Thue-Morse sequence with values $\pm 1$. The Woods-Robbins identity below and several of its generalisations are well-known in the literature \begin{equation*}\label{WR}\prod_{n=0}^\infty\left(\frac{2n+1}{2n+2}\right)^{u_n}=\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}.\end{equation*} No other such product involving a rational function in $n$ and the sequence $u_n$ seems to be known in closed form. To understand these products in detail we study the function \begin{equation*}f(b,c)=\prod_{n=1}^\infty\left(\frac{n+b}{n+c}\right)^{u_n}.\end{equation*} We prove some analytical properties of $f$. We also obtain some new identities similar to the Woods-Robbins product.Comment: Accepted in Proc. AMMCS 2017, updated according to the referees' comment

Quasicrystals, model sets, and automatic sequences

We survey mathematical properties of quasicrystals, first from the point of view of harmonic analysis, then from the point of view of morphic and automatic sequences. Nous proposons un tour d'horizon de propri\'et\'es math\'ematiques des quasicristaux, d'abord du point de vue de l'analyse harmonique, ensuite du point de vue des suites morphiques et automatiques
