Every Binary Pattern of Length Greater Than 14 Is Abelian-2-Avoidable

Résumé

We show that every binary pattern of length greater than 14 is abelian-2-avoidable. The best known upper bound on the length of abelian-2-unavoidable binary pattern was 118, and the best known lower bound is 7. We designed an algorithm to decide, under some reasonable assumptions, if a morphic word avoids a pattern in the abelian sense. This algorithm is then used to show that some binary patterns are abelian-2-avoidable. We finally use this list of abelian-2-avoidable pattern to show our result. We also discuss the avoidability of binary patterns on 3 and 4 letters.
