Abstract

In this paper, we define the notion of maximal suffix duplication and the notion of strict square completion of maximal suffix in an infinite word. Then, we get that each of these operations can be used iteratively to generate the Fibonacci word F. Finally, we show that duplication generates F faster than strict square completion.
