Arrangement Of Letters In Words Using Parikh Matrices

The Parikh matrix mapping is an ingenious generalization of the classical Parikh mapping in the aim to arithmetize words by numbers. Two words are M-equivalent if and only if they share the same Parikh matrix. The characterization of M-equivalent words remains open even for the case of the ternary...

description The Parikh matrix mapping is an ingenious generalization of the classical Parikh mapping in the aim to arithmetize words by numbers. Two words are M-equivalent if and only if they share the same Parikh matrix. The characterization of M-equivalent words remains open even for the case of the ternary alphabet. Due to the dependency of Parikh matrices on the ordering of the alphabet, the notion of strong M-equivalence was proposed as an order-independent alternative to M-equivalence. In this work, we introduce a new symmetric transformation that justifies strong M-equivalence for the ternary alphabet. We then extend certain work of §erbanuja to the context of strong equivalence and show that the number of strongly M-unambiguous prints for any alphabet is always finite.
