International audience In a previous paper, we characterized free monoid morphisms preserving finite Lyndon words. In particular, we proved that such a morphism preserves the order on finite words. Here we study morphisms preserving infinite Lyndon words and morphisms preserving the order on infinite words. We characterize them and show relations with morphisms preserving Lyndon words or the order on finite words. We also briefly study morphisms preserving border-free words and those preserving the radix order.

International audience Let X be a two-element set of words over a finite alphabet. If a bi-infinite word possesses two X-factorizations which are not shiftequivalent, then the primitive roots of the words in X are conjugates. Note, that this is a strict sharpening of a defect theorem for bi-infinite words stated in \emphKMP. Moreover, we prove that there is at most one bi-infinite word possessing two different X-factorizations and give a necessary and sufficient conditions on X for the existence of such a word. Finally, we prove that the family of sets X for which such a word exists is parameterizable.

International audience The i-th symbol of the well-known infinite word of Thue on the alphabet \ 0,1\ can be characterized as the parity of the number of occurrences of the digit 1 in the binary notation of i. Generalized words of Thue are based on counting the parity of occurrences of an arbitrary word w∈\ 0,1\^+-0^* in the binary notation of i. We provide here the standard Lyndon factorization of some subclasses of this class of infinite words.

International audience At the 4th Conference on Combinatorics on Words, Christophe Reutenauer posed the question of whether the dual reflected order yields a Gray code on the Lyndon family. In this paper we give a positive answer. More precisely, we present an O(1)-average-time algorithm for generating length n binary pre-necklaces, necklaces and Lyndon words in Gray code order.

Lyndon Words

International audience We first give a fast algorithm to compute the maximal Lyndon word (with respect to lexicographic order) of \textitLy_α (A) for every given multidegree alpha in \textbfN^k. We then give an algorithm to compute all the words living in \textitLy_α (A) for any given α in \textbfN^k. The best known method for generating Lyndon words is that of Duval [1], which gives a way to go from every Lyndon word of length n to its successor (with respect to lexicographic order by length), in space and worst case time complexity O(n). Finally, we give a simple algorithm which uses Duval's method (the one above) to compute the next standard bracketing of a Lyndon word for lexicographic order by length. We can find an interesting application of this algorithm in control theory, where one wants to compute within the command Lie algebra of a dynamical system (letters are actually vector fields).

Combinatorics International audience In a recent paper, Brlek, Jamet and Paquin showed that some extremal infinite smooth words are also infinite Lyndon words. This result raises a natural question: are they the only ones? If no, what do the infinite smooth words that are also Lyndon words look like? In this paper, we give the answer, proving that the only infinite smooth Lyndon words are m(\a ...

Graph Theory International audience We consider exchange of three intervals with permutation (3, 2, 1). The aim of this paper is to count the cardinality of the set 3iet (N) of all words of length N which appear as factors in infinite words coding such transformations. We use the strong relation of 3iet words and words coding exchange of two intervals, i.e., Sturmian words. The known asymptotic formula #2iet(N)/N-3 similar to 1/pi(2) for the number of Sturmian factors allows us to find bounds 1/3 pi(2) +o(1) \textless= #3iet(N)N-4 \textless= 2 pi(2) + o(1)

special issue dedicated to the second edition of the conference AutoMathA: from Mathematics to Applications International audience We consider the monoid T with the presentation < a, b; aab = aba > which is ''close'' to trace monoids. We prove two different types of results. First, we give a combinatorial description of the lexicographically minimum and maximum representatives of their congruence classes in the free monoid \a, b\* and solve the classical equations, such as commutation and conjugacy in T. Then we study the closure properties of the two subfamilies of the rational subsets of T whose lexicographically minimum and maximum cross-sections respectively, are rational in \a, b\*.

Lyndon Words

International audience We consider the set $\mathcal{L}_n<$ of n-letters long Lyndon words on the alphabet $\mathcal{A}=\{0,1\}$. For a random uniform element ${L_n}$ of the set $\mathcal{L}_n$, the binary tree $\mathfrak{L} (L_n)$ obtained by successive standard factorization of $L_n$ and of the factors produced by these factorization is the $\textit{Lyndon tree}$ of $L_n$. We prove that the height $H_n$ of $\mathfrak{L} (L_n)$ satisfies $\lim \limits_n \frac{H_n}{\mathsf{ln}n}=\Delta$, in which the constant $\Delta$ is solution of an equation involving large deviation rate functions related to the asymptotics of Eulerian numbers ($\Delta ≃5.092\dots $). The convergence is the convergence in probability of random variables.

Numeration Systems

International audience We study properties of β-numeration systems, where β > 1 is the real root of the polynomial x3 - mx2 - x - 1, m ∈ ℕ, m ≥ 1. We consider arithmetic operations on the set of β-integers, i.e., on the set of numbers whose greedy expansion in base β has no fractional part. We show that the number of fractional digits arising under addition of β-integers is at most 5 for m ≥ 3 and 6 for m = 2, whereas under multiplication it is at most 6 for all m ≥ 2. We thus generalize the results known for Tribonacci numeration system, i.e., for m = 1. We summarize the combinatorial properties of infinite words naturally defined by β-integers. We point out the differences between the structure of β-integers in cases m = 1 and m ≥ 2.
