Nov 7, 2017 at 17:10 comment added yo' Honestly, the paper by Markovitch contains some very poorly researched problems. He would find that the behaviour of the Golden mean (equations (3), (5)) is shared by an infinite class of algebraic integers or all degrees, namely the Pisot numbers, and actually we have that for an algebraic $x$, $d(x^n,\mathbb{Z})\to0$ if and only if $x$ is Pisot. So certainly this one is anything but a coincidence.
