DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/OWNS/97/">Qu
 asi-recognizability and continuous eigenvalues of torsion-free S-adic syst
 ems</a>\nby Álvaro Bustos-Gajardo (The Open University) as part of One Wo
 rld Numeration seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nWe discuss combinatorial and dynamic
 al descriptions of S-adic systems generated by sequences of constant-lengt
 h morphisms between alphabets of bounded size. For this purpose\, we intro
 duce the notion of quasi-recognisability\, a strictly weaker version of re
 cognisability but which is indeed enough to reconstruct several classical 
 arguments of the theory of constant-length substitutions in this more gene
 ral context. Furthermore\, we identify a large family of directive sequenc
 es\, which we call "torsion-free"\, for which quasi-recognisability is obt
 ained naturally\, and can be improved to actual recognisability with relat
 ive ease.\n\nUsing these notions we give S-adic analogues of the notions o
 f column number and height for substitutions\, including dynamical and com
 binatorial interpretations of each\, and give a general characterisation o
 f the maximal equicontinuous factor of the identified family of S-adic shi
 fts\, showing as a consequence that in this context all continuous eigenva
 lues must be rational. As well\, we employ the tools developed for a first
  approach to the measurable case.\n\nThis is a joint work with Neil Mañib
 o and Reem Yassawi.\n
