Abstract
Let β > 1 be a Pisot number andg be a positive Hölder continuous function with period one and g(0) = 1. The multiperiodic functionG(ξ)=Π ∞n=0 g(ξ/βn) is studied and the asymptotic behaviour ofI G(T) = ∫ T0 G(ξ)dξ investigated. We prove that the limit of logI(T)/ logT exists asT tends to infinity. We also provide a method to calculate this limit for the caseg(ξ) = cos2 2πξ, corresponding to the Fourier transform of the Bernoulli convolution associated to the golden number (or some of its generalizations).
