Smooth words over an alphabet of non-negative integers $\{a,b\}$ are infinite words that are infinitely derivable, the most famous example being the Oldenburger-Kolakoski word over $\{1,2\}$. The main way to study their language is to…
A word $w$ over an alphabet $\Sigma$ is a Lyndon word if there exists an order defined on $\Sigma$ for which $w$ is lexicographically smaller than all of its conjugates (other than itself). We introduce and study \emph{universal Lyndon…
An infinite word is an infinite Lyndon word if it is smaller, with respect to the lexicographic order, than all its proper suffixes, or equivalently if it has infinitely many finite Lyndon words as prefixes. A characterization of binary…
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…
In this paper, we extend the notion of Lyndon word to transfinite words. We prove two main results. We first show that, given a transfinite word, there exists a unique factorization in Lyndon words that are densely non-increasing, a…
Brlek et al. (2008) studied smooth infinite words and established some results on letter frequency, recurrence, reversal and complementation for 2-letter alphabets having same parity. In this paper, we explore smooth infinite words over…
A word $\sigma=\sigma_1...\sigma_n$ over the alphabet $[k]=\{1,2,...,k\}$ is said to be {\em smooth} if there are no two adjacent letters with difference greater than 1. A word $\sigma$ is said to be {\em smooth cyclic} if it is a smooth…
A generalized lexicographic order on words is a lexicographic order where the total order of the alphabet depends on the position of the comparison. A generalized Lyndon word is a finite word which is strictly smallest among its class of…
Given a totally finite ordered alphabet $ A $, endowing the set of words over $ A $ with the alternating lexicographic order, we define a new class of Lyndon words. We study the fundamental properties of the associated symbolic dynamical…
Recently the second two authors characterized quasiperiodic Sturmian words, proving that a Sturmian word is non-quasiperiodic if and only if it is an infinite Lyndon word. Here we extend this study to episturmian words (a natural…
It is a fundamental property of non-letter Lyndon words that they can be expressed as a concatenation of two shorter Lyndon words. This leads to a naive lower bound log_{2}(n)} + 1 for the number of distinct Lyndon factors that a Lyndon…
In this note, we establish the convexity and monotonicity for affine standard Lyndon words in all types, generalizing the $A$-type results of arXiv:2305.16299. We also derive partial results on the structure of imaginary standard Lyndon…
We generalize the study of standard Lyndon loop words from [A.Negut, A.Tsymbaliuk, "Quantum loop groups and shuffle algebras via Lyndon words", Adv. Math. 439 (2024), Paper No. 109482] to a more general class of orders on the underlying…
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 use bounds of character sums and some combinatorial arguments to show the abundance of very smooth numbers which also have very few non-zero binary digits.
We show that there exists an uniformly recurrent infinite word whose set of factors is closed under reversal and which has only finitely many palindromic factors.
Motivated by applications to string processing, we introduce variants of the Lyndon factorization called inverse Lyndon factorizations. Their factors, named inverse Lyndon words, are in a class that strictly contains anti-Lyndon words, that…
We consider questions related to the structure of infinite words (over an integer alphabet) with bounded additive complexity, i.e., words with the property that the number of distinct sums exhibited by factors of the same length is bounded…
A Lyndon word is a primitive string which is lexicographically smallest among cyclic permutations of its characters. Lyndon words are used for constructing bases in free Lie algebras, constructing de Bruijn sequences, finding the…
Carpi (1993) and Lepisto (1994) proved independently that smooth words are cube-free for the alphabet {1, 2}, but nothing is known on whether for the other 2-letter alphabets, smooth words are k-power-free for some suitable positive integer…
