Brzozowski derivatives of a regular expression are developed for constructing deterministic automata from the given regular expression in the algebraic way. In this paper,some lemmas of the regular expressions are discussed and the regular…
We construct a Hardy field that contains Ilyashenko's class of germs at infinity of almost regular functions as well as all log-exp-analytic germs. In addition, each germ in this Hardy field is uniquely characterized by an asymptotic…
Given a random text over a finite alphabet, we study the frequencies at which fixed-length words occur as subsequences. As the data size grows, the joint distribution of word counts exhibits a rich asymptotic structure. We investigate all…
We introduce a sequent calculus with a simple restriction of Lambek's product rules that precisely captures the classical Tamari order, i.e., the partial order on fully-bracketed words (equivalently, binary trees) induced by a…
We relate binary words with a given number of subsequences to continued fractions of rational numbers with a given denominator. We deduce that there are binary strings of length $O(\log n \log \log n)$ with exactly $n$ subsequences; this…
We consider the valued field $\mathds{K}:=\mathbb{R}((\Gamma))$ of generalized series (with real coefficients and monomials in a totally ordered multiplicative group $\Gamma$). We investigate how to endow $\mathds{K}$ with a series…
The avoidability, or unavoidability of patterns in words over finite alphabets has been studied extensively. A word (pattern) over a finite set is said to be unavoidable if, for all but finitely many words, there exists a morphism mapping…
In relational approach to general rough sets, ideas of directed relations are supplemented with additional conditions for multiple algebraic approaches in this research paper. The relations are also specialized to representations of general…
We give a complete criterion for when two hyperbolic automorphisms of a tree generate a free, discrete subgroup. The decision depends only on three geometric invariants: the translation lengths of the generators and the length of overlap of…
The set of finite words over a well-quasi-ordered set is itself well-quasi-ordered. This seminal result by Higman is a cornerstone of the theory of well-quasi-orderings and has found numerous applications in computer science. However, this…
We find an explicit closed form for the subword complexity of the infinite fixed point of the morphism sending $a \rightarrow aab$ and $b \rightarrow b$. This morphism is then generalized in three different ways, and we find similar…
For each infinite word over a given finite alphabet, we define an increasing sequence of rooted finite graphs, that can be thought as approximations of the famous Sierpinski carpet. These sequences naturally converge to an infinite rooted…
There are certain families of words and word sequences (words in the generators of a two-generator group) that arise frequently in the Teichm{\"u}ller theory of hyperbolic three-manifolds and Kleinian and Fuchsian groups and in the…
We introduce and develop a language of semigroups over the braid groups for a study of braid monodromy factorizations (bmf's) of plane algebraic curves and other related objects. As an application we give a new proof of Orevkov's theorem on…
Cross-linguistically, native words and loanwords follow different phonological rules. In English, for example, words of Germanic and Latinate origin exhibit different stress patterns, and a certain syntactic structure, double-object…
This paper proposes an extension to classical regular expressions by the addition of two operators allowing the inclusion of boolean formulae from the zeroth order logic. These expressions are called constrained expressions. The associated…
A non-Hermitean random matrix model proposed a few years ago has a remarkably intricate spectrum. Various attempts have been made to understand the spectrum, but even its dimension is not known. Using the Dyson-Schmidt equation, we show…
Let $w$ be a word in alphabet $\{x,D\}$ with $m$ $x$'s and $n$ $D$'s. Interpreting "$x$" as multiplication by $x$, and "$D$" as differentiation with respect to $x$, the identity $wf(x) = x^{m-n}\sum_k S_w(k) x^k D^k f(x)$, valid for any…
Let $\theta = [0; a_1, a_2, \dots]$ be the continued fraction expansion of an irrational real number $\theta \in (0, 1)$. It is well-known that the characteristic Sturmian word of slope $\theta$ is the limit of a sequence of finite words…
The prefix palindromic length $p_{\mathbf{u}}(n)$ of an infinite word $\mathbf{u}$ is the minimal number of concatenated palindromes needed to express the prefix of length $n$ of $\mathbf{u}$. This function is surprisingly difficult to…
