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 =…

We define the Narayana sequence $\{a_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ as the one satisfying the linear recurrence relation $a_n = a_{n-1}+a_{n-3}$ for $n\geq 3$, with initial values $a_0 = 0$ and $a_1 = a_2=1$. In this paper, we fully characterize the…

We introduce and study a generalization of the Narayana numbers $N_d(n,k) = \frac{1}{n+1} \binom{n+1}{k+1} \binom{ n + (n-k)(d-2)+1}{k}$ for integers $d \geq 2$ and $n,k \geq 0$. This two-parameter array extends the classical Narayana…

In this paper, we prove that a class of regular sequences can be viewed as projections of fixed points of uniform morphisms on a countable alphabet, and also can be generated by countable states automata. Moreover, we prove that the…

Word ${\mathbf G}$ is the fixed point of the morphism $\gamma=[01,2,02]$. In 2019, Shallit and Shur showed that ${\mathbf G}$ has factor complexity $2n+1$. They also showed that ${\mathbf G}$ has critical exponent…

In the present paper we find a new interpretation of Narayana polynomials N_n(x) which are the generating polynomials for the Narayana numbers N_{n,k} counting Dyck paths of length n and with exactly k peaks. Strangely enough Narayana…

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…

We study infinite words fixed by a morphism and their derived words. A derived word is a coding of return words to a factor. We exhibit two examples of sets of morphisms which are closed under derivation --- any derived word with respect to…

Let $ (N_n)_{n\ge 0}$ be the Narayana's cow sequence defined by a third-order recurrence relation $ N_0=0,\ N_1= N_2=1 $, and $ N_{n+3}=N_{n+2}+N_n $ for all $ n\ge 0 $. In this paper, we determine all Narayana numbers that are…

This paper classifies binary morphisms that map to ultimately periodic words. In particular, if a morphism h maps an infinite non-ultimately periodic word to an ultimately periodic word then it must be true that h(0) commutes with h(1).

In this note, by counting some colored plane trees we obtain several binomial identities. These identities can be viewed as specific evaluations of certain generalizations of the Narayana polynomials. As consequences, it provides…

Motivated by applications in the theory of numeration systems and recognizable sets of integers, this paper deals with morphic words when erasing morphisms are taken into account. Cobham showed that if an infinite word $w =g(f^\omega(a))$…

We show that, for each finite algebra A, either it has symmetric term operations of all arities or else some finite algebra in the variety generated by A has two automorphisms without a common fixed point. We also show this two-automorphism…

Let $\left\lbrace a_{n}\right\rbrace_{n\geq 0}$ be the Narayana Sequence defined by the recurence $a_{n}=a_{n-1}+a_{n-3}$ for all $n\geq 3$ with intital values $a_{0}=0$ and $a_{1}=a_{2}=1$. In This paper, we fully characterize the $3-$adic…

A morphism h is unambiguous with respect to a word w if there is no other morphism g that maps w to the same image as h. In the present paper we study the question of whether, for any given word, there exists an unambiguous 1-uniform…

We consider in general two-block substitutions and their fixed points. We prove that some of them have a simple structure: their fixed points are morphic sequences. Others are intrinsically more complex, such as the Kolakoski sequence. We…

We introduce and study a new type of mappings in metric spaces termed $n$-point Kannan-type mappings. A fixed-point theorem is proved for these mappings. In general case such mappings are discontinuous in the domain but necessarily…

Morphic words are letter-to-letter images of fixed points $x$ of morphisms on finite alphabets. There are situations where these letter-to-letter maps do not occur naturally, but have to be replaced by a morphism. We call this a decoration…

It is well-known that there exist infinite sequences that are the fixed point of non-uniform morphisms, but not $k$-automatic for any $k$. In this note we show that every $k$-automatic sequence is the image of a fixed point of a {\it…

Parikh-collinear morphisms have the property that all the Parikh vectors of the images of letters are collinear, i.e., the associated adjacency matrix has rank 1. In the conference DLT-WORDS 2023 we showed that fixed points of…
