We study a particular digraph dynamical system, the so called digraph diclique operator. Dicliques have frequently appeared in the literature the last years in connection with the construction and analysis of different types of networks, for instance biochemical, neural, ecological, sociological and computer networks among others. Let be a reflexive digraph (or network). Consider and (not necessarily disjoint) nonempty subsets of vertices (or nodes) of . A disimplex of is the subdigraph...
Arithmetical complexity of a sequence is the number of words of length n that can be extracted from it according to arithmetic progressions. We study uniformly recurrent words of low arithmetical complexity and describe the family of such words having lowest complexity.
We investigate the Sandpile Model and Chip Firing Game and an extension of these models on cycle graphs. The extended model consists of allowing a negative number of chips at each vertex. We give the characterization of reachable configurations and of fixed points of each model. At the end, we give explicit formula for the number of their fixed points.
The aim of this paper is to study the threshold behavior for the satisfiability property of a random -XOR-CNF formula or equivalently for the consistency of a random Boolean linear system with variables per equation. For we show the existence of a sharp threshold for the satisfiability of a random -XOR-CNF formula, whereas there are smooth thresholds for and .
The aim of this paper is to study the threshold behavior for the satisfiability property of a random k-XOR-CNF formula or equivalently for the consistency of a random Boolean linear system with k variables per equation. For k ≥ 3 we show the existence of a sharp threshold for the satisfiability of a random k-XOR-CNF formula, whereas there are smooth thresholds for k=1 and k=2.
The complexity of infinite words is considered from the point of view of a transformation with a Mealy machine that is the simplest model of a finite automaton transducer. We are mostly interested in algebraic properties of the underlying partially ordered set. Results considered with the existence of supremum, infimum, antichains, chains and density aspects are investigated.
Episturmian morphisms generalize sturmian morphisms. They are defined as compositions of exchange morphisms and two particular morphisms , and . Epistandard morphisms are the morphisms obtained without considering . In [14], a general study of these morphims and of conjugacy of morphisms is given. Here, given a decomposition of an Episturmian morphism over exchange morphisms and , we consider two problems: how to compute a decomposition of one conjugate of ; how to compute a list of decompositions...
