Negative orientable sequences, i.e. periodic sequences with elements from a finite alphabet of size at least three in which an n-tuple or the negative of its reverse appears at most once in a period of the sequence, were introduced by…
This paper describes new, simple, recursive methods of construction for orientable sequences, i.e. periodic binary sequences in which any n-tuple occurs at most once in a period in either direction. As has been previously described, such…
Analogously to de Bruijn sequences, Orientable sequences have application in automatic position-location applications and, until recently, studies of these sequences focused on the binary case. In recent work by Alhakim et al., recursive…
An orientable sequence of order $n$ is a cyclic binary sequence such that each length-$n$ substring appears at most once \emph{in either direction}. Maximal length orientable sequences are known only for $n\leq 7$, and a trivial upper bound…

Orientable sequences, periodic sequences in which any $n$-tuple appears at most once in either direction, were introduced in the early 1990s for use in certain position location applications; constructions and upper bounds on the period for…
For positive integers $k,n$, a de Bruijn sequence $B(k,n)$ is a finite sequence of elements drawn from $k$ characters whose subwords of length $n$ are exactly the $k^n$ words of length $n$ on $k$ characters. This paper introduces the…
A de Bruijn sequence of order n over a k-symbol alphabet is a circular sequence where each length-n sequence occurs exactly once. We present a way of extending de Bruijn sequences by adding a new symbol to the alphabet: the extension is…
A de Bruijn sequence of order $k$ over a finite alphabet is a cyclic sequence with the property that it contains every possible $k$-sequence as a substring exactly once. Orthogonal de Bruijn sequences are collections of de Bruijn sequences…
An orientable sequence of order $n$ over an alphabet $\{0,1,\ldots, k{-}1\}$ is a cyclic sequence such that each length-$n$ substring appears at most once \emph{in either direction}. When $k= 2$, efficient algorithms are known to construct…
Experimental results show that, when the order $n$ is odd, there are de Bruijn sequences such that the corresponding complement sequence and the reverse sequence are the same. In this paper, we propose one efficient method to generate such…
Negative avoiding sequences of span $n$ are periodic sequences of elements from $\mathbb{Z}_k$ for some $k$ with the property that no $n$-tuple occurs more than once in a period and if an $n$-tuple does occur then its negative does not.…
A cut-down de Bruijn sequence is a cyclic string of length $L$, where $1 \leq L \leq k^n$, such that every substring of length $n$ appears at most once. Etzion [Theor. Comp. Sci 44 (1986)] gives an algorithm to construct binary cut-down de…
The de Bruijn graph, its sequences, and their various generalizations, have found many applications in information theory, including many new ones in the last decade. In this paper, motivated by a coding problem for emerging memory…
We show that a transitively reduced digraph has a confluent upward drawing if and only if its reachability relation has order dimension at most two. In this case, we construct a confluent upward drawing with $O(n^2)$ features, in an $O(n)…
The order-preserving model (op-model, in short) was introduced quite recently but has already attracted significant attention because of its applications in data analysis. We introduce several types of periods in this setting (op-periods).…
A universal cycle for a set S of combinatorial objects is a cyclic sequence of length |S|that contains a representation of each element in S exactly once as a substring. If S is the set of k-subsets of [n] = {1, 2, . . . , n}, it is…
This paper presents a method to find new De Bruijn cycles based on ones of lesser order. This is done by mapping a De Bruijn cycle to several vertex disjoint cycles in a De Bruijn digraph of higher order and connecting these cycles into one…
An oriented graph is an orientation of a simple graph. In 2009, Keevash, K\"{u}hn and Osthus proved that every sufficiently large oriented graph $D$ of order $n$ with $(3n-4)/8$ is Hamiltonian. Later, Kelly, K\"{u}hn and Osthus showed that…
