The problem of classifying all the avoidable binary patterns in words has been completely solved (see Chapter 3 of M. Lothaire, Algebraic Combinatorics on Words, Cambridge Universi...

We study words on a finite alphabet avoiding a finite collection of patterns. Given a pattern p in which every letter that occurs in p occurs at least twice, we show that the nu...
The problem of characterizing and detecting recurrent sequence patterns such as substrings or motifs and related associations or rules is variously pursued in order to compress da...

In the game of Penney Ante two players take turns publicly selecting two distinct words of length n using letters from an alphabet of size q. They roll a fair q sided die having ...
We determine the limiting distributions of the longest alternating subsequence for pattern-restricted permutations in which the pattern is any one of the six patterns of length th...
