[Sur l’approximation rationnelle des nombres de Thue–Morse–Mahler]
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 61 (2011) no. 5, pp. 2065-2076.

Soit (t k ) k0 la suite de Thue–Morse définie sur {0,1} par t 0 =0, t 2k =t k et t 2k+1 =1-t k pour k0. Soit b2 un entier rationnel. Nous démontrons que l’exposant d’irrationalité du nombre de Thue–Morse–Mahler k0 t k b -k est égal à 2.

Let (t k ) k0 be the Thue–Morse sequence on {0,1} defined by t 0 =0, t 2k =t k and t 2k+1 =1-t k for k0. Let b2 be an integer. We establish that the irrationality exponent of the Thue–Morse–Mahler number k0 t k b -k is equal to 2.
