The palindromic length of the finite word is equal to the minimal number of palindromes whose concatenation is equal to . It was conjectured in 2013 that for every infinite aperiodic word , the palindromic length of its factors is not bounded. We prove this conjecture to be true.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Combinatorics is a high standard, international, bimonthly journal of pure mathematics, specializing in theories arising from combinatorial problems. The journal is primarily open to papers dealing with mathematical structures within combinatorics and/or establishing direct links between combinatorics and other branches of mathematics and the theories of computing. The journal includes full-length research papers on important topics.
