Abelian complexity of fixed point of morphism 0 ↦ 012, 1 ↦ 02, 2 ↦ 1
(Integers, 2014-02-20)
We study the combinatorics of vtm, a variant of the Thue-Morse word generated by the non-uniform morphism 0 ↦ 012, 1 ↦ 02, 2 ↦ 1 starting with 0. This infinite ternary sequence appears a lot in the literature and finds ...
Extremal words in morphic subshifts
(Elsevier, 2014-01-22)
Given an infinite word x over an alphabet A, a letter b occurring in
x, and a total order \sigma on A, we call the smallest word with respect to \sigma
starting with b in the shift orbit closure of x an extremal word of ...
Square-free Words with Square-free Self-shuffles
(The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2014-01-12)
We answer a question of Harju: For every n ≥ 3 there is a square-free ternary word of length n with a square-free self-shuffle.
Further applications of a power series method for pattern avoidance
(The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2011-06-21)
In combinatorics on words, a word w over an alphabet ∑ is said to avoid a pattern
p over an alphabet ∆ if there is no factor x of w and no non-erasing morphism h
from ∆* to ∑* such that h(p) = x. Bell and Goh have recently ...
Growth rate of binary words avoiding xxxR
(Elsevier, 2016-01)
Abstract
Consider the set of those binary words with no non-empty factors of the form
xxx^R. Du, Mousavi, Schaeffer, and Shallit asked whether this set of words grows
polynomially or exponentially with length. In this ...
Infinite words containing squares at every position
(EDP Sciences, 2010)
Richomme asked the following question: what is the infimum of the real numbers α > 2 such that there exists an infinite word that avoids α-powers but contains arbitrarily large squares beginning at every position? We resolve ...
Cyclically t-complementary uniform hypergraphs
(European Journal of Combinatorics, 2010-05)
A cyclically t-complementary k-hypergraph is a k-uniform hypergraph with vertex set V and edge set E for which there exists a permutation 2 Sym.V/ such that the sets E; E ; E 2; : : : ; E t1 partition the set of all ...
Avoiding three consecutive blocks of the same size and same sum
(Association of Computing Machinery, 2014-04)
We show that there exists an infinite word over the alphabet {0,1,3,4} containing no three consecutive blocks of the same size and the same sum. This answers an open problem of Pirillo and Varricchio from1994.
Automaticity of Primitive Words and Irreducible Polynomials
(Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science, 2013)
If L is a language, the automaticity function AL(n) (resp. NL(n)) of L counts the number of states of a smallest deterministic (resp. non-deterministic) finite automaton that accepts a language that agrees with L on all ...
Constructing Regular Self-complementary Uniform Hypergraphs
(Journal of Combinatorial Designs, 2011-02-17)
In this paper, we examine the possible orders of t-subset-regular self-complementary k-uniform hypergraphs, which form examples of large sets of two isomorphic t-designs. We reformulate Khosrovshahi and Tayfeh-Rezaie's ...
