DISCRETE MEASURES WITH DENSE JUMPS INDUCED BY STURMIAN DIRICHLET SERIES

. Let (s α (n)) n≥1 be the lexicographically greatest Sturmianword of slope α > 0. For a xed σ > 1, we consider Dirichlet seriesof the form ν σ (α) :=P ∞n=1 s α (n)n −σ . This paper studies the singularproperties of the real function ν σ , and the Lebesgue-Stieltjes measurewhose distribution is given by ν σ . 1. IntroductionThroughout the paper, N(resp. N 0 ) denotes the set of positive (resp. non-negative) integers. We mean by ⌊·⌋ (resp. ⌈·⌉) the oor (resp. ceiling) function,and by A ∗ the set of nite words over the alphabet A, i.e., the free monoid gen-erated by A.For α ≥ 0, an arithmetic function s α : N→ N 0 is dened bys α (n) := ⌈αn⌉ −⌈α(n −1)⌉.Then s α := s α (1)s α (2)··· is an innite word over the alphabet {⌈α⌉−1,⌈α⌉}.Now we set, for a xed σ > 1,(1) ν σ (α) :=X ∞n=1 s α (n)n σ ,i.e., Dirichlet series whose coecients are given by s α . From now on, we assumeσ > 1 unless otherwise stated explicitly. This real function ν σ : [0,∞) → Rwasrstly considered in [3], and shown to be continuous at every irrational, whereasleft-continuous but not right-continuous at every rational. Furthermore, ν
