چکیده

A permutation π is realized by the shift on N symbols if there is an infinite word on an N -letter alphabet whose successive left shifts by one position are lexicographically in the same relative order as π. The set of realized permutations is closed under consecutive pattern containment. Permutations that cannot be realized are called forbidden patterns. It was shown in [J.M. Amigó, S. Elizalde and M. Kennel, J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 115 (2008), 485–504] that the shortest forbidden patterns of the shift on N symbols have length N + 2. In this paper we give a characterization of the set of permutations that are realized by the shift on N symbols, and we enumerate them with respect to their length. Résumé. Une permutation π est réalisée par le shift avec N symboles s’il y a un mot infini sur un alphabet de N lettres dont les déplacements successifs d’une position à gauche sont lexicographiquement dans le même ordre relatif que π. Les permutations qui ne sont pas réalisées s’apellent des motifs interdits. On sait [J.M. Amigó, S. Elizalde and M. Kennel, J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 115 (2008), 485–504] que les motifs interdits les plus courts du shift avec N symboles ont longueur N + 2. Dans cet article on donne une caractérisation des permutations réalisées par le shift avec N symboles, et on les dénombre selon leur longueur.

The Number of Permutations Realized By a Shift

A permutation π is realized by the shift on N symbols if there is an infinite word on an N -letter alphabet whose successive left shifts by one position are lexicographically in the same relative order as π. The set of realized permutations is closed under consecutive pattern containment. Permutations that cannot be realized are called forbidden patterns. It was shown in [1] that the shortest f...

Permutations and β-shifts

Given a real number β > 1, a permutation π of length n is realized by the β-shift if there is some x ∈ [0, 1] such that the relative order of the sequence x, f(x), . . . , f(x), where f(x) is the factional part of βx, is the same as that of the entries of π. Widely studied from such diverse fields as number theory and automata theory, β-shifts are prototypical examples onedimensional chaotic dy...

Allowed patterns of β-shifts

For a real number β > 1, we say that a permutation π of length n is allowed (or realized) by the β-shift if there is some x ∈ [0, 1] such that the relative order of the sequence x, f(x), . . . , fn−1(x), where f(x) is the fractional part of βx, is the same as that of the entries of π. Widely studied from such diverse fields as number theory and automata theory, β-shifts are prototypical example...

Periodic Patterns of Signed Shifts

The periodic patterns of a map are the permutations realized by the relative order of the points in its periodic orbits. We give a combinatorial description of the periodic patterns of an arbitrary signed shift, in terms of the structure of the descent set of a certain transformation of the pattern. Signed shifts are an important family of one-dimensional dynamical systems. For particular types...

Permutations and Negative Beta-shifts

Elizalde (2011) characterized which permutations can be obtained by ordering consecutive elements in the trajectories of (positive) beta-transformations and beta-shifts. We prove similar results for negative bases beta.
