We consider the implementation of the transduction of automatic sequences, and their generalizations, in the Walnut software for solving decision problems in combinatorics on words. We provide a number of applications, including (a)…
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…
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…
We study how much injective morphisms can increase the repetitiveness of a given word. This question has a few possible variations depending on the meaning of ``repetitiveness''. We concentrate on fractional exponents of finite words and…
Recently, a new characterization of Lyndon words that are also perfectly clustering was proposed by Lapointe and Reutenauer (2024). A word over a ternary alphabet {a,b,c} is called perfectly clustering Lyndon if and only if it is the…
$V$-order is a global order on strings related to Unique Maximal Factorization Families (UMFFs), which are themselves generalizations of Lyndon words. $V$-order has recently been proposed as an alternative to lexicographical order in the…
We say that two finite words $u$ and $v$ are abelian equivalent if and only if they have the same number of occurrences of each letter, or equivalently if they define the same Parikh vector. In this paper we investigate various abelian…
In this paper, we analyze the density of the Fibonacci word and its derived forms by examining the morphisms associated with each. It offers a comparative analysis of the density of Fibonacci numbers alongside other words derived from…
We consider a measure of similarity for infinite words that generalizes the notion of asymptotic or natural density of subsets of natural numbers from number theory. We show that every overlap-free infinite binary word, other than the…
Nous d\'ecrivons quelques r\'esultats r\'ecents sur la suite de Thue-Morse, ainsi que des questions ou conjectures, dont l'une, due \`a Shevelev, est r\'esolue dans cet article. We describe some recent results on the Thue-Morse sequence. We…
The class of (eventually) dendric words generalizes well-known families such as the Arnoux-Rauzy words or the codings of interval exchanges. There are still many open questions about the link between dendricity and morphisms. In this paper,…
The prefix palindromic length $\mathrm{PPL}_{\mathbf{u}}(n)$ of an infinite word $\mathbf{u}$ is the minimal number of concatenated palindromes needed to express the prefix of length $n$ of $\mathbf{u}$. Since 2013, it is still unknown if…
Linear extended top-down tree transducers (or synchronous tree-substitution grammars) are popular formal models of tree transformations. The expressive power of compositions of such transducers with and without regular look-ahead is…
In this article we study decreasing and increasing factorisations of the cycle, which are decompositions of the cycle $(1~2\dots n)$ into a product of $n-1$ transpositions satisfying monotonicity conditions. We explicit a bijection between…
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…
In this paper we compare two finite words $u$ and $v$ by the lexicographical order of the infinite words $u^\omega$ and $v^\omega$. Informally, we say that we compare $u$ and $v$ by the infinite order. We show several properties of Lyndon…
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…
For a complexity function $C$, the lower and upper $C$-complexity rates of an infinite word $\mathbf{x}$ are \[ \underline{C}(\mathbf x)=\liminf_{n\to\infty} \frac{C(\mathbf{x}\upharpoonright n)}n,\quad \overline{C}(\mathbf…
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…
Letting $w$ denote a finite, nonempty word, let $\text{red}(w)$ denote the word obtained from $w$ by replacing every subword $s$ of $w$ of the form $cc \cdots c$ for a given character $c$ (such that there is no character immediately to the…
