A Rauzy fractal unbounded in all directions of the plane
Abstract
We construct an Arnoux–Rauzy word for which the set of all differences of two abelianized factors is equal to $\mathbb{Z}^3$. In particular, the imbalance of this word is infinite – and its Rauzy fractal is unbounded in all directions of the plane.
