The additive-square-free spectrum below 139

For a finite real alphabet $T$, let $g(T)$ be the supremum of the lengths of words over $T$ containing no two adjacent nonempty blocks of equal length and equal sum. We classify all four-element alphabets with $g(T)<139$. Up to affine equivalence, these are the known endpoint-sum family and seven isolated classes. Exha...

The triple rendezvous time of a synchronizing automaton can be floor(4n/3)

For every $n\ge9$, we construct a strongly connected synchronizing automaton with two input letters and $n$ states whose shortest word merging some three distinct states has length $\lfloor4n/3\rfloor$. One letter is a permutation; the other has an image of size $n-1$. We give complete transition maps and an explicit w...

Density regions, integer certificates and packing colorings of distance graphs

We study simultaneous color densities in packing colorings of integer distance graphs. For $D(1,6)$, we determine several exact density regions and prove that colors $1$ through $7$ have maximum combined density $211/252$. When this maximum is approached, the seven individual color frequencies are forced to converge to...
