Abstract

We introduce the wide class of marked uniform DOL words and study their structure. The criterium of circularity of a marked uniform DOL word is given, and the subword complexity function is found for the uncircular case as well as for the circular one.

The same technique is valid for a wider class of uniform DOL sequences which includes (p, 1)-Toeplitz words (see [4]).

Supported in part by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (Grant 96-01-01800) and Federal Aim Program “Integration” (Grant 473)
