Universal updates of Dyck-nest signatures

Abstract

Let 0<kZ0<k\in\mathbb{Z}. The anchored Dyck words of length n=2k+1n=2k+1 (obtained by prefixing a 0-bit to each Dyck word of length 2k2k and used to reinterpret the Hamilton cycles in the odd graph OkO_k and the middle-levels graph MkM_k found by M\"utze et al.) represent in OkO_k (resp., MkM_k) the cycles of an nn- (resp., 2n2n-) 2-factor and its cyclic (resp., dihedral) vertex classes, and are equivalent to Dyck-nest signatures. A sequence is obtained by updating these signatures according to the depth-first order of a tree of restricted growth strings (RGS's), reducing the RGS-generation of Dyck words by collapsing to a single update the time-consuming ii-nested castling used to reach each non-root Dyck word or Dyck nest. This update is universal, for it does not depend on kk.
