چکیده
For every pattern p over the alphabet {x, y, x, y}, we specify the least k such that p is k-avoidable.

Computing the partial word avoidability indices of binary patterns
We complete the classification of binary patterns in partial words that was started in earlier publications by proving that the partial word avoidability index of the binary pattern ABABA is two and the one of the binary pattern ABBA is three.
متن کاملA note on the avoidability of binary patterns with variables and reversals
In this note we present a characterisation of all unary and binary patterns that do not only contain variables, but also reversals of their instances. These types of variables were studied recently in either more general or particular cases. We show that the results are not surprising at all in the general case, and extend the avoidability of these patterns to enforce aperiodic words.
متن کاملBinary patterns in binary cube-free words: Avoidability and growth
The avoidability of binary patterns by binary cube-free words is investigated and the exact bound between unavoidable and avoidable patterns is found. All avoidable patterns are shown to be D0L-avoidable. For avoidable patterns, the growth rates of the avoiding languages are studied. All such languages, except for the overlap-free language, are proved to have exponential growth. The exact growt...
متن کاملComputing the Partial Word Avoidability Indices of Ternary Patterns
We study pattern avoidance in the context of partial words. The problem of classifying the avoidable binary patterns has been solved, so we move on to ternary and more general patterns. Our results, which are based on morphisms (iterated or not), determine all the ternary patterns’ avoidability indices or at least give bounds for them.
متن کاملUnary Pattern Avoidance in Partial Words Dense with Holes
A partial word is a sequence of symbols over a finite alphabet that may have some undefined positions, called holes, that match every letter of the alphabet. Previous work completed the classification of all unary patterns with respect to partial word avoidability, as well as the classification of all binary patterns with respect to non-trivial partial word avoidability. In this paper, we pose ...
