Abstract

Since Thue’s work [10] in the early 1900’s, repetition avoidance has been intensely studied [9,8,7,4]. From the point of view of DNA computing [5], we study another type of repetition, called a pseudo-power, inspired by the property of the Watson- Crick complementarity in molecular biology.
