DNA codes and their properties
Lila Kari,Kalpana Mahalingam +1 more
TL;DR: This paper continues the study of the algebraic properties of DNA word sets that ensure that certain undesirable bonds do not occur and develops certain methods of constructing such sets of DNA words with good properties and compute their informational entropy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involutively bordered words
Lila Kari,Kalpana Mahalingam +1 more
TL;DR: This paper studies a mathematical formalization of a particular case of hairpins, the Watson-Crick bordered words, a word with the property that it has a prefix that is Watson- Crick complementary to its suffix.
Journal ArticleDOI
Product of parikh matrices and commutativity
TL;DR: This paper deals with the problem of finding properties of words so that their Parikh matrices commute.
Journal ArticleDOI
The syntactic monoid of hairpin-free languages
TL;DR: This paper gives a complete characterization of the syntactic monoid of the language consisting of all hairpin-free words over a given alphabet and illustrates it with an example using the DNA alphabet.
Book ChapterDOI
Two-Dimensional Palindromes and Their Properties
TL;DR: The necessary and sufficient condition under which a 2D word can be decomposed into 2D palindromes is provided, and the relation between the set of all 2DPalindrome words and theset of all2D primitive words is found.
