Using the symmetry of the Hodge numbers involved, we show that it shares many properties with the <span>(h^*)</span>-vector of a polytope. For instance, we define from the <span>(theta )</span>-vector the Hodge–Ehrhart polynomial of a general tame function and we show that it satisfies a reciprocity law, analogous to the one satisfied by the Ehrhart polynomial of a polytope. We study the roots of this Hodge–Ehrhart polynomial, in particular their distribution around some critical lines. Using techniques coming from singularity theory, we also show a Thom–Sebastiani type theorem for the <span>(theta )</span>-vector. Finally, we offer some linear inequalities among the coefficients of the <span>(theta )</span>-vectors which could be helpful to test if a polynomial is a <span>(theta )</span>-vector or not.

For example, the word <img> is a tangram with cut number one, while the word <img> is a tangram with cut number two. Clearly, tangrams with cut number one coincide with the well-known family of words, known as <i>squares</i>, having the form <i>UU</i> for some nonempty word <i>U</i>. A word <i>W</i> <i>avoids</i> a word <i>T</i> if it is not possible to write <span>(W=ATB)</span>, for any words <i>A</i> and <i>B</i> (possibly empty).
