چکیده

We show a Θ(n log n) bound on the maximal number of occurrences of primitively-rooted k-th powers occurring in a string of length n for any integer k, k ≥ 2. We also show a Θ(n) bound on the maximal number of primitively-rooted powers with fractional exponent e, 1 < e < 2, occurring in a string of length n. This result holds obviously for their maximal number of occurrences. The first result contrasts with the linear number of occurrences of maximal repetitions of exponent at least 2.

Counting Occurrences of Some Subword Patterns Alexander Burstein and Toufik Mansour

We find generating functions for the number of strings (words) containing a specified number of occurrences of certain types of order-isomorphic classes of substrings called subword patterns. In particular, we find generating functions for the number of strings containing a specified number of occurrences of a given 3-letter subword pattern.

The upper domatic number of powers of graphs

Let $A$ and $B$ be two disjoint subsets of the vertex set $V$ of a graph $G$. The set $A$ is said to dominate $B$, denoted by $A rightarrow B$, if for every vertex $u in B$ there exists a vertex $v in A$ such that $uv in E(G)$. For any graph $G$, a partition $pi = {V_1,$ $V_2,$ $ldots,$ $V_p}$ of the vertex set $V$ is an textit{upper domatic partition} if $V_i rightarrow V_j$ or $V_j rightarrow...

Domination number of graph fractional powers

For any $k in mathbb{N}$, the $k$-subdivision of graph $G$ is a simple graph $G^{frac{1}{k}}$, which is constructed by replacing each edge of $G$ with a path of length $k$. In [Moharram N. Iradmusa, On colorings of graph fractional powers, Discrete Math., (310) 2010, No. 10-11, 1551-1556] the $m$th power of the $n$-subdivision of $G$ has been introduced as a fractional power of $G$, denoted by ...

On Patterns Occurring in Binary Algebraic Numbers

We prove that every algebraic number contains infinitely many occurrences of 7/3-powers in its binary expansion. Using the same approach, we also show that every algebraic number contains either infinitely many occurrences of squares or infinitely many occurrences of one of the blocks 010 or 02120 in its ternary expansion.

General Results on the Enumeration of Strings in Dyck Paths

Let τ be a fixed lattice path (called in this context string) on the integer plane, consisting of two kinds of steps. The Dyck path statistic “number of occurrences of τ” has been studied by many authors, for particular strings only. In this paper, arbitrary strings are considered. The associated generating function is evaluated when τ is a Dyck prefix (or a Dyck suffix). Furthermore, the case ...
