Combinatorics of non-ambiguous trees [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2013
This article investigates combinatorial properties of non-ambiguous trees. These objects we define may be seen either as binary trees drawn on a grid with some constraints, or as a subset of the tree-like tableaux previously defined by Aval, Boussicault ...

A $q,t-$analogue of Narayana numbers [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2013
We study the statistics $\mathsf{area}$, $\mathsf{bounce}$ and $\mathsf{dinv}$ associated to polyominoes in a rectangular box $m$ times $n$. We show that the bi-statistics ($\mathsf{area}$,$\mathsf{bounce}$) and ($\mathsf{area}$,$\mathsf{dinv}$) give ...

A New Algorithm Based on Colouring Arguments for Identifying Impossible Polyomino Tiling Problems

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2022
Checkerboard colouring arguments for proving that a given collection of polyominoes cannot tile a finite target region of the plane are well-known and typically applied on a case-by-case basis. In this article, we give a systematic mathematical treatment

A Tiling-Theoretic Approach to Efficient Area Coverage in a Tetris-Inspired Floor Cleaning Robot

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Although numerous studies have focused on the development and application of polyomino tiling theories, research of this nature is typically limited to the graphics and gaming fields.

A code for square permutations and convex permutominoes [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2019
In this article we consider square permutations, a natural subclass of permutations defined in terms of geometric conditions, that can also be described in terms of pattern avoiding permutations, and convex permutoninoes, a related subclass of ...

Tackling Area Coverage Problems in a Reconfigurable Floor Cleaning Robot Based on Polyomino Tiling Theory

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
Whilst Polyomino tiling theory has been extensively studied as a branch of research in mathematics, its application has been largely confined to multimedia, graphics and gaming domains.

Interactions between Digital Geometry and Combinatorics on Words [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2011
We review some recent results in digital geometry obtained by using a combinatorics on words approach to discrete geometry. Motivated on the one hand by the well-known theory of Sturmian words which model conveniently discrete lines in the plane, and on ...

Decidability of multiset, set and numerically decipherable directed figure codes [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
Codes with various kinds of decipherability, weaker than the usual unique decipherability, have been studied since multiset decipherability was introduced in mid-1980s.

The combinatorics of Motzkin polyominoes

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics
A word $w=w_1\cdots w_n$ over the set of positive integers is a Motzkin word whenever $w_1=\texttt{1}$, $1\leq w_k\leq w_{k-1}+1$, and $w_{k-1}\neq w_{k}$ for $k=2, \dots, n$. It can be associated to a $n$-column Motzkin polyomino whose $i$-th column contains $w_i$ cells, and all columns are bottom-justified.
