Blanchet-Sadri et al. have shown that Avoidability, or the problem of deciding the avoidability of a finite set of partial words over an alphabet of size k 2, is NP-hard [Theoret...

We propose an algorithm that given as input a full word w of length n, and positive integers p and d, outputs (if any exists) a maximal p-periodic partial word contained in w with ...
