Abstract

We show that the size of the smallest string attractor of the n-th Thue-Morse word is 4 for any, disproving the conjecture by Mantaci et al. [ICTCS 2019] that it is n. We also show that for, where is the maximum over all, the number of distinct substrings of length k in w divided by k, which is a measure of repetitiveness recently studied by Kociumaka et al. [LATIN 2020]. Furthermore, we show that the number of factors in the self-referencing Lempel-Ziv factorization of is exactly 2n.
