Word for which the equality is attained for any $n$ is usually called rich in palindromes. In this article we study words whose languages are invariant under a finite group $G$ of symmetries. For such words we prove a stronger version of the above inequality. We introduce notion of $G$-palindromic richness and give several examples of $G$-rich words, including the Thue-Morse sequence as well.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2012-07-09T06:37:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "68R15" ], "keywords": [ "palindromic richness", "languages invariant", "overlapping factors", "symmetries", "palindromic complexity" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1103.4051P" } } }
