Equi-partitioning of higher-dimensional hyper-rectangular grid graphs.
We consider a recently defined notion of k-abelian equivalence of words by concentrating on avoidance problems. The equivalence class of a word depends on the numbers of occurrences of different factors of length k for a fixed natural number k and the prefix of the word. We have shown earlier that over a ternary alphabet k-abelian squares cannot be avoided in pure morphic words for any natural number k. Nevertheless, computational experiments support the conjecture that even 3-abelian squares can...
In this paper we analyze the computational complexity of a processor optimization problem. Given operations with interval times in a branching flow graph, the problem is to find an assignment of the operations to a minimum number of processors. We analyze the complexity of this assignment problem for flow graphs with a constant number of program traces and a constant number of processors.
Ramsey theory for words over a finite alphabet was unified in the work of Carlson, who also presented a method to extend the theory to words over an infinite alphabet, but subject to a fixed dominating principle. In the present work we establish an extension of Carlson's approach to countable ordinals and Schreier-type families developing an extended Ramsey theory for dominated words over a doubly infinite alphabet (in fact for ω-ℤ*-located words), and we apply this theory, exploiting the Budak-Işik-Pym...
We describe factor frequencies of the generalized Thue-Morse word defined for , as the fixed point starting in of the morphism where and where the letters are expressed modulo . We...
