On a Family of Random Noble Means Substitutions

Abstract

In 1989, Godreche and Luck introduced the concept of local mixtures of primitive substitution rules along the example of the well-known Fibonacci substitution and foreshadowed heuristic results on the topological entropy and the spectral type of the diffraction measure of associated point sets. In this contribution, we present a generalisation of this concept by regarding the so-called 'noble means families', each consisting of finitely many primitive substitution rules that individually all define the same two-sided discrete dynamical hull. We report about results in the randomised case on topological entropy, ergodicity of the two-sided discrete hull, and the spectral type of the diffraction measure of related point sets.
