Words avoiding the morphic images of most of their factors

Pascal Ochem, Matthieu Rosenfeld

We say that a finite factor of a word is \emph{imaged} if there exists a non-erasing morphism , distinct from the identity, such that contains . We show that e…

Complement Avoidance in Binary Words

James Currie, L'ubomíra Dvořaková, Pascal Ochem +3

The complement of a binary word is obtained by changing each in to and vice versa. We study infinite binary words that avoid sufficiently lar…

Pseudoperiodic Words and a Question of Shevelev

Joseph Meleshko, Pascal Ochem, Jeffrey Shallit +1

We generalize the familiar notion of periodicity in sequences to a new kind of pseudoperiodicity, and we prove some basic results about it. We revisit the results of a 2012 paper o…

Doubled patterns with reversal and square-free doubled patterns

Antoine Domenech, Pascal Ochem

In combinatorics on words, a word over an alphabet is said to avoid a pattern over an alphabet if there is no factor of such that where $h:Δ^*\toΣ^…
