Besicovitch-Eggleston sets for finite GLS number systems with redundancy

In this article we study Besicovitch-Eggleston sets for finite GLS number systems with redundancy. These number systems produce number expansions reminiscent of Cantor base expansions. The redundancy refers to the fact that each number $x \in [0,1]$ has uncountably many representations in the system. We distinguish between these representations by adding an extra dimension and describing the system as a diagonally affine IFS on $\mathbb R^2$. For the associated two dimensional level sets of digit frequencies we give the Birkhoff spectrum and an expression for the Hausdorff dimension. To obtain these results we first prove a more general result on the Hausdorff dimension of level sets for Birkhoff averages of continuous potentials for a certain family of diagonally affine IFS's. We also study the Hausdorff dimension of digit frequency sets along fibres.Comment: 21 pages, 1 figur
