Abstract :
[en] Considering an integer base b, any integer is represented by a word over a finite digit-set, its base-b expansion. In theoretical computer science, one is interested in syntactical properties of words or languages, i.e., sets of words. In this introductory talk, I will present recognizable sets of numbers : the set of their representations is accepted by a finite automaton. We will see that this property strongly depends on the choice of the numeration system. We will therefore review some fundamental questions and introduce automatic sequences. Thanks to Büchi-Bruyère theorem, first order logic and decidable theories may be used to produce automatic proofs and in particular solve, in an automated way, arithmetical problems. I will not assume any knowledge from the audience about formal languages theory.
