COMMENTS

Dimensions of homogeneous subspaces of shuffle algebra defined in the "Comments" line.

Let x and y be two letters, m and m' any two words, e is the empty word of the free monoid generated by (x,y). Let uu denote the shuffle or Hurwitz product: xm uu ym' =x.(m uu ym') + y.(xm uu m'); of course, e is neutral.

REFERENCES

M. Lothaire, Combinatorics on words, Cambridge mathematical library, 1983, p. 126 (definition of shuffle algebra).

EXAMPLE

Degree 3: x uu x = 2 x^2, y uu y = 2 y^2, x uu y = xy + yx.
