Combinatorics on Words (Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications, Series Number 17) - Hardcover
Combinatorics on words, or finite sequences, is a field that has grown simultaneously within disparate branches of mathematics such as group theory and probability. It has grown into an independent theory finding substantial applications in computer science, automata theory and linguistics. This volume is the first attempt to present a thorough treatment of this theory.

Book Description:
Combinatorics on words, or finite sequences, is a field which grew simultaneously within disparate branches of mathematics such as group theory and probability. It has grown into an independent theory finding substantial applications in computer science automata theory and liguistics. This volume is the first to present a thorough treatment of this theory. All of the main results and techniques are covered. The presentation is accessible to undergraduate and graduate level students in mathematics and computer science as well as to specialists in all branches of applied mathematics.
