In this thesis, we introduce generalisations and extensions of these features and establish a basic theory. Further, we study these new notions in the context of Sturmian subshifts and a family of aperiodic minimal subshifts stemming from Grigorchuk's infinite 2-group. In the second part, we study sequences of intermediate beta-transformations. Especially, we answer the question of how a sequence of corresponding normalised Parry measures converges as beta goes to one and we connect this convergence to Sturmian subshifts and the famous Thue-Morse sequence.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAperiodic orderComplexityErgodic theorySubshiftsGrigorchuk groupbeta-TransformationsSturmian sequences510Dissertationurn:nbn:de:gbv:46-00106948-11
