We consider $m\times n$ rectangular matrices formed from Sturmian words with slope $\alpha$, and we fully characterise their balance properties in terms of the Ostrowski representations of $m$ and $n$ with respect to $\alpha$. This…

In the past few decades there has been a good deal of papers which are concerned with optimization problems in different areas of mathematics (along 0-1 words, finite or infinite) and which yield - sometimes quite unexpectedly - balanced…

We implement a decision procedure for answering questions about a class of infinite words that might be called (for lack of a better name) "Tribonacci-automatic". This class includes, for example, the famous Tribonacci word T =…

This paper studies balance properties for billiard words. Billiard words generalize Sturmian words by coding trajectories in hypercubic billiards. In the setting of aperiodic order, they also provide the simplest examples of quasicrystals,…

Fibonacci word is the archetype of the Sturmian word, and it is one of the most studied of combinatorics on words. We studied the properties of the Fibonacci word and found its density for limited value then by calculating the limit…

In this paper, we study the theory of the harmonic and the hyperharmonic Fibonacci numbers. Also, we get some combinatoric identities like as harmonic and hyperharmonic numbers and we obtain some useful formulas for $\mathbb{F}_{n}$, which…

We define the notion of circular words, then consider on such words a constraint derived from the Fibonacci condition. We give several results on the structure of these circular words, then mention possible applications to various…

A set of words, also called a language, is letter-balanced if the number of occurrences of each letter only depends on the length of the word, up to a constant. Similarly, a language is factor-balanced if the difference of the number of…

We study growth rates of generalised Fibonacci sequences of a particular structure. These sequences are constructed from choosing two real numbers for the first two terms and always having the next term be either the sum or the difference…

This note contains a report of a proof by computer that the Fibonacci group F(2,9) is automatic. The automatic structure can be used to solve the word problem in the group. Furthermore, it can be seen directly from the word-acceptor that…

The $m$-bonacci word is a generalization of the Fibonacci word to the $m$-letter alphabet $\mathcal{A} = {0,...,m-1}$. It is the unique fixed point of the Pisot--type substitution $ \varphi_m: 0\to 01, 1\to 02, ..., (m-2)\to0(m-1), and…

Given an input string s and a specific Lindenmayer system (the so-called Fibonacci grammar), we define an automaton which is capable of (i) determining whether s belongs to the set of strings that the Fibonacci grammar can generate (in…

An abelian square is the concatenation of two words that are anagrams of one another. A word of length $n$ can contain at most $\Theta(n^2)$ distinct factors, and there exist words of length $n$ containing $\Theta(n^2)$ distinct…
