摘要: Abstract In this paper we explore the notion of periods a string. A period can be thought as shift that causes string to match over itself. We obtain two sets necessary and sufficient conditions for set integers some (what call correlation string). show number distinct correlations length n is independent alphabet size order nlogn. By using generating function methods enumerate strings having given correlation, investigate certain related questions.
