title: On infinite permutations
keywords: infinite permutation, ordering, periodicity, complexity, subword complexity, Sturmian words
abstract: We define an infinite permutation as a sequence of reals taken up to the order, or, equivalently, as a linear ordering of a finite or countable set. Then we introduce and characterize periodic permutations; surprisingly, for each period
t
there is an infinite number of distinct
t
-periodic permutations. At last, we introduce a complexity notion for permutations analogous to subword complexity for words, and consider the problem of minimal complexity of non-periodic permutations. Its answer is different for the right infinite and the bi-infinite case.

The first source gives you the `gzipped' PostScript, the second the plain PostScript and the third the format for the Adobe accrobat reader. Depending on the installation of your web browser, at least one of these should (after some amount of time) pop up a window for you that shows the full article. If this is not the case, you should contact your system administrator to install your browser correctly.

Due to limitations of your local software, the two formats may show up differently on your screen. If eg you use xpdf to visualize pdf, some of the graphics in the file may not come across. On the other hand, pdf has a capacity of giving links to sections, bibliography and external references that will not appear with PostScript.
