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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
There Exist Binary Circular 5/2+ Power Free Words of Every Length
(The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2004-01-23)
We show that there exist binary circular 5/2+ power free words of every length.
Generating self-complementary uniform hypergraphs
(Discrete Mathematics, 2010-02)
In 2007, Szymanski and Wojda proved that for positive integers n; k with k less than n, a self-complementary k-uniform hypergraph of order n exists if and only if n/k is even. In this paper, we characterize the cycle type ...
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 ...
