Query: Bifurcation sets arising from non-integer base expansions   Given a positive integer $M$ and $q\in(1,M+1]$, let $\mathcal U_q$ be the set
of $x\in[0, M/(q-1)]$ having a unique $q$-expansion: there exists a unique
sequence $(x_i)=x_1x_2\ldots$ with each $x_i\in\{0,1,\ldots, M\}$ such that
  \[
  x=\frac{x_1}{q}+\frac{x_2}{q^2}+\frac{x_3}{q^3}+\cdots.
  \]
  Denote by $\mathbf U_q$ the set of corresponding sequences of all points in
$\mathcal U_q$.
  It is well-known that the function $H: q\mapsto h(\mathbf U_q)$ is a Devil's
staircase, where $h(\mathbf U_q)$ denotes the topological entropy of $\mathbf
U_q$. In this paper we {give several characterizations of} the bifurcation set
  \[
  \mathcal B:=\{q\in(1,M+1]: H(p)\ne H(q)\textrm{ for any }p\ne q\}.
  \] Note that $\mathcal B$ is contained in the set $\mathcal{U}^R$ of bases
$q\in(1,M+1]$ such that $1\in\mathcal U_q$. By using a transversality technique
we also calculate the Hausdorff dimension of the difference $\mathcal
B\backslash\mathcal{U}^R$. Interestingly this quantity is always strictly
between $0$ and $1$. When $M=1$ the Hausdorff dimension of $\mathcal
B\backslash\mathcal{U}^R$ is $\frac{\log 2}{3\log \lambda^*}\approx 0.368699$,
where $\lambda^*$ is the unique root in $(1, 2)$ of the equation
$x^5-x^4-x^3-2x^2+x+1=0$.
