Episturmian words: a survey
Amy Glen, Jacques Justin
In this paper, we survey the rich theory of infinite episturmian words which generalize to any finite alphabet, in a rather resembling way, the well-known family of Sturmian words…

Characterizations of finite and infinite episturmian words via lexicographic orderings
Amy Glen, Jacques Justin, Giuseppe Pirillo
In this paper, we characterize by lexicographic order all finite Sturmian and episturmian words, i.e., all (finite) factors of such infinite words. Consequently, we obtain a charac…
