Partial words are sequences over a finite alphabet that may contain wildcard symbols, called holes, which match or are compatible with all letters; partial words without holes are said to be full words (or simply words). Given an infinite…
A double occurrence word $w$ over a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ is a word in which each alphabet letter appears exactly twice. Such words arise naturally in the study of topology, graph theory, and combinatorics. Recently, double occurrence…
Lambda words are sequences obtained by encoding the differences between ordered elements of the form i+j\theta, where i and j are non-negative integers and 1 < \theta <2. Lambda words are right-infinite words defined over an infinite…
Lyndon factorization and Lempel-Ziv (LZ) factorization are both important tools for analysing the structure and complexity of strings, but their combinatorial structure is very different. In this paper, we establish the first direct…
The concepts used in IFOL have associated to them a list of sorted attributes, and the sorts are the intensional concepts as well. The requirement to extend the unsorted IFOL (Intensional FOL) to many-sorted IFOL is mainly based on the fact…
We study new Legendre transforms in classical mechanics and investigate some of their general properties. The behaviour of the new functions is analyzed under coordinate transformations.When invariance under different kinds of…
Inspired by the $k$-inversion statistic for LLT polynomials, we define a $k$-inversion number and $k$-descent set for words. Using these, we define a new statistic on words, called the $k$-major index, that interpolates between the major…
An infinite permutation $\alpha$ is a linear ordering of $\mathbb N$. We study properties of infinite permutations analogous to those of infinite words, and show some resemblances and some differences between permutations and words. In this…
As neural language models approach human performance on NLP benchmark tasks, their advances are widely seen as evidence of an increasingly complex understanding of syntax. This view rests upon a hypothesis that has not yet been empirically…
We introduce the notion of $\alpha$-numbers and formal intercept of sturmian words, and derive from this study general factorisations formula for sturmian words. Sturmian words are defined as infinite words with lowest unbound complexity,…
Ziv-Lempel and Crochemore factorization are two kinds of factorizations of words related to text processing. In this paper, we find these factorizations for standard epiesturmian words. Thus the previously known c-factorization of standard…
Let us consider an infinite word and $k\geq 1$ an integer. By steps of $k$, we substitute a letter ofthis infinite word by the power of an external letter. The new word obtaining by this process is called $k$ to $k$ substitution of a power…
The gauge invariant formulation of Maxwell's equations and the electromagnetic duality transformations are given in the light-front (LF) variables. The novel formulation of the LF canonical quantization, which is based on the kinematic…
We classify the factorizations of finite classical groups with nonsolvable factors, completing the classification of factorizations of finite almost simple groups.
The Burrows-Wheeler Transform is a string transformation that plays a fundamental role for the design of self-indexing compressed data structures. Over the years, researchers have successfully extended this transformation outside the…
Minimal forbidden factors are a useful tool for investigating properties of words and languages. Two factorial languages are distinct if and only if they have different (antifactorial) sets of minimal forbidden factors. There exist…
Given an odd prime $p$, we provide formulas for the Hensel lifts of polynomial roots modulo $p$, and give an explicit factorization over the ring of formal power series with integer coefficients for certain reducible polynomials whose…
Jay and Given-Wilson have recently introduced the Factorisation (or SF-) calculus as a minimal fundamental model of intensional computation. It is a combinatory calculus containing a special combinator, F, which is able to examine the…
The Collatz variations pattern seems not to have any recurrence relation between numbers. But knowing that there is at least a natural number that converges after several iterations we construct a function $f_{X,Y}$ that is equal to the…
Based on Lyndon words, a new Sudoku-like puzzle is presented and some relative theoretical questions are proposed.
