 This mini-event, organized by [[start|One World Combinatorics on Words Seminar]], is designed to take the place of a small and very informal conference in our field, since many of us miss direct communication of this kind. This mini-event, organized by [[start|One World Combinatorics on Words Seminar]], is designed to take the place of a small and very informal conference in our field, since many of us miss direct communication of this kind.

 Today, we hardly know anything about the geometrical and topological properties of these unbalanced Rauzy fractals. The Oseledets theorem suggests that these fractals are contained in a strip of the plane: indeed, if the Lyapunov exponents of the matricial product associated with the word exist, one of these exponents at least is nonpositive since their sum equals zero. Today, we hardly know anything about the geometrical and topological properties of these unbalanced Rauzy fractals.

 The study of the pairs of abelianized factors of Arnoux-Rauzy words disproves this belief. The study of the pairs of abelianized factors of Arnoux-Rauzy words disproves this belief.

-**Célia Cisternino** //Two applications of the composition of a $2$-tape automaton and a weighted automaton// 
- 
-Starting with a $2$-tape automaton ${\mathcal A}$ and a weighted automaton ${\mathcal B}$, we can obtain a new $K$-automaton using an ad hoc operation that can be considered as the composition ${\mathcal B}\circ {\mathcal A}$. First, I will define and illustrate this operation. Next, I will present an application of this operation on automata in terms of synchronized relation and formal series. In particular, using the characterization of synchronized sequences in terms of synchronized relations and that of regular sequences in terms of formal series, I will present two consequences of this composition of automata in the theory of regular sequences.

 To achieve these results, we introduce a novel data-structure, called Simon-Tree, which allows us to construct a natural representation of the equivalence classes induced by $\sim_k$ on the set of suffixes of a word, for all $k\geq 1$. We show that such a tree can be constructed for an input word in linear time. Then, when working with two words $s$ and $t$, we compute their respective Simon-Trees and efficiently build a correspondence between the nodes of these trees. This correspondence, which can also be constructed in linear time $O(|s|+|t|)$, allows us to retrieve the largest $k$ for which $s\sim_k t$. To achieve these results, we introduce a novel data-structure, called Simon-Tree, which allows us to construct a natural representation of the equivalence classes induced by $\sim_k$ on the set of suffixes of a word, for all $k\geq 1$.

-** Christophe Reutenauer ** //An arithmetical characterization of Christoffel words// 
- 
-Christoffel word have many combinatorial characterizations. 
-I propose a new one, of arithmetical nature: a primitive word on the alphabet $11$, $22$ is a Christoffel word if and only if for any of its conjugates, $u=a_1\cdots a_{2n}$ say, one has 
-$p(a_1,\ldots,a_{2n}) - p(a_2,\ldots,a_{2n-1}) < 3 p(a_2,\ldots,a_{2n})$. 
- 
-Here $p(x_1,\ldots,x_k)$ denotes the continuant polynomials, defined recursively by $p()=1$, $p(x_1)=x_1$, and 
-$p(x_1,\ldots,x_k)=x_1p(x_2,\ldots,x_k)+p(x_3,\ldots,x_k)$. 
- 
-These polynomials are well-known in the theory of continued fractions. One has for example $p(x,y)=xy+1$, $p(x,y,z)=xyz+x+z$, $p(x,y,z,t)=xyzt+xy+xt+zt+1$. 
- 
-The characterization above is motivated by the theory of Markoff. As intermediate result, I prove another characterization: 
-a primitive word $w$ on the alphabet $\{a<b\}$ is a Christoffel word if and only for any conjugate $aub$ (resp. $bua$) of $w$, one has $u \geq_{lex} \tilde u$ (resp. $u \leq_{lex} \tilde u$). This condition must be called the finitary Markoff condition, due to its similarity to Markoff’s condition on bi-infinite words, which appears in his articles of 1880.
