This paper first appeared fall of 1990 in the Journal of Theoretical Probability, vol. 3, no. 4, pp. 611—626. The key words by which...
متن کاملOn winning shifts of marked uniform substitutions
The second author introduced with I. Törmä a two-player word-building game [Playing with Subshifts, Fund. Inform. 132 (2014), 131–152].
