Sturmian Sequences and Invertible Substitutions.

It is known that a Sturmian sequence S can be defined as a coding of the orbit of ρ (called the intercept of S) under a rotation of irrational angle a (called the slope). On the other hand, a fixed point of an invertible substitution is Sturmian. Naturally, there are two interrelated questions: (1) Given an invertible substitution, we know that its fixed point is Sturmian. What is the slope and intercept? (2) Which kind of Sturmian sequences can be fixed by certain non-trivial invertible substitutions? In this paper we give a unified treatment to the two questions. We remark that though the results are known, our proof is very elementary and concise. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
