Tomographical aspects of L-convex polyominoes
Our main purpose is to characterize the class of L-convex polyominoes introduced in [3] by means of their horizontal and vertical projections. The achieved results allow an answer to one of the most relevant questions in tomography i.e. the uniqueness of discrete sets, with respect to their horizontal and vertical projections. In this paper, by giving a characterization of L-convex polyominoes,...
متن کاملCombinatorial aspects of L-convex polyominoes
We consider the class of L-convex polyominoes, i.e. those polyominoes in which any two cells can be connected with an “L” shaped path in one of its four cyclic orientations. The paper proves bijectively that the number fn of L-convex polyominoes with perimeter 2(n + 2) satisfies the linear recurrence relation fn+2 = 4 fn+1 − 2 fn , by first establishing a recurrence of the same form for the car...
متن کاملEnumeration of convex polyominoes using the ECO method
ECO is a method for the enumeration of classes of combinatorial objects based on recursive constructions of such classes. In the first part of this paper we present a construction for the class of convex polyominoes based on the ECO method. Then we translate this construction into a succession rule. The final goal of the paper is to determine the generating function of convex polyominoes accord...
متن کاملPolyominoes with Nearly Convex Columns: an Undirected Model
Column-convex polyominoes were introduced in 1950’s by Temperley, a mathematical physicist working on “lattice gases”. By now, column-convex polyominoes are a popular and well-understood model. There exist several generalizations of column-convex polyominoes. However, the enumeration by area has been done for only one of the said generalizations, namely for multi-directed animals. In this paper...
متن کاملPolyominoes with nearly convex columns: A semi-directed model
Column-convex polyominoes are by now a well-explored model. So far, however, no attention has been given to polyominoes whose columns can have either one or two connected components. This little known kind of polyominoes seems not to be manageable as a whole. To obtain solvable models, one needs to introduce some restrictions. This paper is focused on polyominoes with hexagonal cells. The restr...
