Class Numbers and Biquadratic Reciprocity
(Cambridge University Press, 1982)
Avoidability index for binary patterns with reversal
(2017)
For every pattern p over the alphabet {x,x^R,y,y^R}, we specify the least k such that p is k-avoidable.
A direct proof of a result of Thue
(Utilitas Mathematica, 1984)
Combinatorics and Algorithmics of Strings
(Dagstuhl Publishing, 2014-03-09)
Strings (aka sequences or words) form the most basic and natural data structure. They occur whenever information is electronically transmitted (as bit streams), when natural language text is spoken or written down (as words ...
A Ternary Square-free Sequence Avoiding Factors Equivalent to abcacba
(The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2016-05-27)
We solve a problem of Petrova, finalizing the classification of letter patterns avoidable by ternary square-free words; we show that there is a ternary square-free word avoiding letter pattern xyzxzyx. In fact, we characterize ...
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.
