On the expansions of real numbers in two integer bases
[Sur le développement des nombres réels en deux bases entières]
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 67 (2017) no. 5, pp. 2225-2235.

Soient r et s deux entiers strictement positifs multiplicativement indépendants. Nous démontrons que les développements en base r et en base s d’un nombre irrationnel, vus comme des mots infinis sur les alphabets {0,1,...,r-1} et {0,1,...,s-1}, respectivement, ne peuvent pas avoir simultanément une trop faible complexité par blocs. En particulier, au plus l’un d’eux est un mot sturmien.

Let r and s be multiplicatively independent positive integers. We establish that the r-ary expansion and the s-ary expansion of an irrational real number, viewed as infinite words on {0,1,...,r-1} and {0,1,...,s-1}, respectively, cannot have simultaneously a low block complexity. In particular, they cannot be both Sturmian words.
