On the bifurcation set of unique expansions

Abstract

Given a positive integer $M$, for $q\in(1, M+1]$ let ${\mathcal{U}}_q$ be the set of $x\in[0, M/(q-1)]$ having a unique $q$-expansion with the digit set $\{0, 1,\ldots, M\}$, and let $\mathbf{U}_q$ be the set of corresponding $q$-expansions. Recently,
