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 ...
Cyclic Complexity of Some Infinite Words and Generalizations
(Integers, 2018-03)
Cassaigne et al. introduced the cyclic complexity function c_x(n), which gives the number of cyclic conjugacy classes of length-n factors of a word x. We study the behavior of this function for the Fibonacci word f and the ...
Binary Words Containing Infinitely Many Overlaps
(The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2006-09-22)
We characterize the squares occurring in infinite overlap-free binary words and construct various α power-free binary words containing infinitely many overlaps.
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 ...
The minimal automaton recognizing mN in a linear numeration system
(Integers, 2011-12-02)
We study the structure of automata accepting the greedy representations of N in a wide class of numeration systems. We describe the conditions under which such automata can have more than one strongly connected component ...
Overlap-Free Words and Generalizations
(University of Winnipeg, 2007)
The study of combinatorics on words dates back at least to the beginning of the
20th century and the work of Axel Thue. Thue was the first to give an example of an infinite word over a three letter alphabet that contains ...
Avoiding approximate repetitions with respect to the longest common subsequence distance
(Mathematical Sciences Publishers, 2015-09-17)
Ochem, Rampersad, and Shallit gave various examples of infinite words avoiding what they called approximate repetitions. An approximate repetition is a factor of the form x x', where x and x' are close to being identical. ...
Multi-dimensional sets recognizable in all abstract numeration systems
(EDP Sciences, 2011)
We prove that the subsets of Nd that are S-recognizable for all abstract numeration systems S are exactly the 1-recognizable sets. This generalizes a result of Lecomte and Rigo in the one-dimensional setting.
Squares and overlaps in the Thue-Morse sequence and some variants
(EDP Sciences, 2006)
We consider the position and number of occurrences of squares in the Thue-Morse sequence, and show that the corresponding sequences are 2-regular. We also prove that changing any finite but nonzero number of bits in the ...
