Iterated Hairpin Completions of Non-crossing Words
Abstract. Iterated hairpin completion is an operation on formal languages that is inspired by the hairpin formation in DNA biochemistry. Iterated hairpin completion of a word (or m...

On the regularity of iterated hairpin completion of a single word
Hairpin completion is an abstract operation modeling a DNA biooperation which receives as input a DNA strand w = xαyα, and outputs w = xαy¯αx, where x denotes the Watson-Cric...

Bounded Hairpin Completion
We consider a restricted variant of the hairpin completion called bounded hairpin completion. The hairpin completion is a formal operation inspired from biochemistry. Applied to a ...

Measuring Ranks via the Complete Laws of Iterated Contraction
: Ranking theory delivers an account of iterated contraction; each ranking function induces a specific iterated contraction behavior. The paper gives a complete axiomatization of t...
