The non-repetitive complexity $nr\mathcal{C}_{\bf u}$ and the initial non-repetitive complexity $inr\mathcal{C}_{\bf u}$ are functions which reflect the structure of the infinite word ${\bf u}$ with respect to the repetitions of factors of…

The initial non-repetitive complexity function of an infinite word x (first defined by Moothathu) is the function of n that counts the number of distinct factors of length n that appear at the beginning of x prior to the first repetition of…

A finite word $u$ is called closed if its longest repeated prefix has exactly two occurrences in $u,$ once as a prefix and once as a suffix. We study the function $f_x^c:\mathbb N \rightarrow \mathbb N$ which counts the number of closed…

Let f(t) be a rational function of degree at least 2 with rational coefficients. For a given rational number x_0, define x_{n+1}=f(x_n) for each nonnegative integer n. If this sequence is not eventually periodic, then the difference…

In this book chapter, written in French, we consider the classical family of Sturmian words, defined as the aperiodic infinite words containing only $n+1$ factors of a length $n$, which is the minimal possible value. We will discuss several…

Quasi-Sturmian words, which are infinite words with factor complexity eventually $n+c$ share many properties with Sturmian words. In this paper, we study the quasi-Sturmian colorings on regular trees. There are two different types, bounded…

We prove that every $n$-letter word over $k$-letter alphabet contains some word as a subsequence in at least $k^{n/4k(1+o(1))}$ many ways, and that this is sharp as $k\to\infty$. For fixed $k$, we show that the analogous number deviates…

In this paper, we analyze the periodic factors of Sturmian words for the findings to lead to a linear-time algorithm for the computation of runs in this class of words which, to our best knowledge, is an open problem in literature.

We study the properties of the ternary infinite word p = 012102101021012101021012 ... , that is, the fixed point of the map h:0->01, 1->21, 2->0. We determine its factor complexity, critical exponent, and prove that it is 2-balanced. We…

Brlek and Reutenauer conjectured that any infinite word u with language closed under reversal satisfies the equality 2D(u) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}T_u(n) in which D(u) denotes the defect of u and T_u(n) denotes C_u(n+1)-C_u(n) +2 - P_U(n+1) -…

The m-sophistication of a finite binary string x is introduced as a generalization of some parameter in the proof that complexity of complexity is rare. A probabilistic near sufficient statistic of x is given which length is upper bounded…

Determining the index of the Simon congruence is a long outstanding open problem. Two words $u$ and $v$ are called Simon congruent if they have the same set of scattered factors, which are parts of the word in the correct order but not…

String attractors are a combinatorial tool coming from the field of data compression. It is a set of positions within a word which intersects an occurrence of every factor. While one-sided infinite words admitting a finite string attractor…

Let A be a positive operator in an infinite sigma-finite von Neumann factor M and let B_j be a sequence of positive elements in M. We give sufficient conditions for decomposing A into a sum of elements C_j equivalent to B_j for all j ( C…

To any infinite word w over a finite alphabet A we can associate two infinite words min(w) and max(w) such that any prefix of min(w) (resp. max(w)) is the lexicographically smallest (resp. greatest) amongst the factors of w of the same…

Frid, Puzynina and Zamboni (2013) defined the palindromic length of a finite word $w$ as the minimal number of palindromes whose concatenation is equal to $w$. For an infinite word $u$ we study $PL_{u}$, that is, the function that assigns…

Let I be a finitely supported complete m-primary ideal of a regular local ring (R, m). A theorem of Lipman implies that I has a unique factorization as a *-product of special *-simple complete ideals with possibly negative exponents for…

We classify newforms with rational Fourier coefficients and complex multiplication for fixed weight up to twisting. Under the extended Riemann hypothesis for odd real Dirichlet characters, these newforms are finite in number. We produce…

For an infinite word $x$, Bugeaud and Kim introduced a quantity $\mathrm{rep}(x)$ called the exponent of repetition of $x$. We prove that $\mathrm{rep}(x) = \mathrm{rep}(y)$ holds for a Sturmian word $x$ and every suffix $y$ of $x$. Let $c$…

A word $w$ is called rich if it contains $| w|+1$ palindromic factors, including the empty word. We say that a rich word $w$ can be extended in at least two ways if there are two distinct letters $x,y$ such that $wx,wy$ are rich. Let $R$…
