On substitutions closed under derivation: examples

Abstract

We study infinite words fixed by a morphism and their derived words. A derived word is a coding of return words to a factor. We exhibit two examples of sets of morphisms which are closed under derivation --- any derived word with respect to any factor of the fixed point is again fixed by a morphism from this set. The first example involves standard episturmian morphisms, and the second concerns the period doubling morphism.
