Abstract
- Let $L=(L_d)_{d \in \mathbb N}$ be any ordered probability sequence, i.e., satisfying $0 < L_{d+1} \le L_d$ for each $d \in \mathbb N$ and $\sum_{d \in \mathbb N} L_d =1$. We construct sequences $A = (a_i)_{i \in \mathbb N}$ on the countably infinite alphabet $\mathbb N$ in which each possible block of digits $\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_k \in \mathbb N$, $k \in \mathbb N$, occurs with frequency $\prod_{d=1}^k L_{\alpha_d}$. In other words, we construct $L$-normal sequences. These sequences can then be projected to normal numbers in various affine number systems, such as real numbers $x \in [0,1]$ that are normal in GLS number systems that correspond to the sequence $L$ or higher dimensional variants. In particular, this construction provides a family of numbers that have a normal L\"uroth expansion.<br />Comment: 21 pages, 3 figures
