Extract

Let α be an irrational p-adic number, r an arbitrary positive integer. Our aim is to prove that there exists a rational integer X satisfying

such that every possible sequence of r digits 0, 1, …, p – 1 occurs infinitely often in the canonical p-adic series for Xα. It is clear that it suffices to prove this result for p-adic integers.
