On the aperiodic avoidability of binary patterns with variables and reversals
In this work we present a characterisation of the avoidability of all unary and binary patterns, that do not only contain variables but also reversals of their instances, with respect to aperiodic infinite words. These types of patterns were studied recently in either more general or particular cases.
