Complexity of infinite words associated with beta-expansions

Christiane Frougny, Zuzana Masáková, Edita Pelantová (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

We study the complexity of the infinite word associated with the Rényi expansion of in an irrational base . When is the golden ratio, this is the well known Fibonacci word, which is Sturmian, and of complexity . For such that is finite we provide a simple description of the structure of special factors of the word . When =1 we show that . In the cases when or max} we show that the first difference of the complexity function takes value in for every , and consequently we determine...

Integers in number systems with positive and negative quadratic Pisot base

Z. Masáková, T. Vávra (2014)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

We consider numeration systems with base and − , for quadratic Pisot numbers and focus on comparing the combinatorial structure of the sets Z and Z of numbers with integer expansion in base , resp. − . Our main result is the comparison of languages of infinite words and coding the ordering of distances between consecutive - and (− )-integers. It turns out that for a class of roots of − − , the languages coincide, while for other...

Hereditary properties of words

József Balogh, Béla Bollobás (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

Let be a hereditary property of words, , an infinite class of finite words such that every subword (block) of a word belonging to is also in . Extending the classical Morse-Hedlund theorem, we show that either contains at least words of length for every  or, for some , it contains at most words of length for every . More importantly, we prove the following quantitative extension of this result: if has words of length then, for every , it contains at most ⌈( + 1)/2⌉⌈( + 1)/2⌈...

On the distribution of characteristic parameters of words

Arturo Carpi, Aldo de Luca (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

For any finite word on a finite alphabet, we consider the basic parameters and of defined as follows: is the minimal natural number for which has no right special factor of length and is the minimal natural number for which has no repeated suffix of length . In this paper we study the distributions of these parameters, here called characteristic parameters, among the words ...

On the product of balanced sequences

Antonio Restivo, Giovanna Rosone (2012)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

The product  =  ⊗  of two sequences and is a naturally defined sequence on the alphabet of pairs of symbols. Here, we study when the product of two balanced sequences is balanced too. In the case and are binary sequences, we prove, as a main result, that, if such a product is balanced and () = 4, then is an ultimately periodic sequence of a very special form. The case of arbitrary alphabets is approached in the last section. The partial results obtained and the problems proposed...

The number of binary rotation words

A. Frid, D. Jamet (2014)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

We consider binary rotation words generated by partitions of the unit circle to two intervals and give a precise formula for the number of such words of length . We also give the precise asymptotics for it, which happens to be ( ). The result continues the line initiated by the formula for the number of all Sturmian words obtained by Lipatov [39 (1982) 67–84], then independently by Mignosi [82 (1991) 71–84], and others.

Pointwise constrained radially increasing minimizers in the quasi-scalar calculus of variations

Similarity:

We prove of vector minimizers () =  (||) to multiple integrals ∫ ((), |()|)  on a  ⊂ ℝ, among the Sobolev functions (·) in + (, ℝ), using a  : ℝ×ℝ → [0,∞] with (·) and . Besides such basic hypotheses, (·,·) is assumed to satisfy also...
