Connectedness of fractals associated with Arnoux-Rauzy substitutions
RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications, Tome 48 (2014) no. 3, pp. 249-266.

Rauzy fractals are compact sets with fractal boundary that can be associated with any unimodular Pisot irreducible substitution. These fractals can be defined as the Hausdorff limit of a sequence of compact sets, where each set is a renormalized projection of a finite union of faces of unit cubes. We exploit this combinatorial definition to prove the connectedness of the Rauzy fractal associated with any finite product of three-letter Arnoux-Rauzy substitutions.
