Abstract

We formulate and explain the extended Burrows–Wheeler transform of Mantaci et al. from the viewpoint of permutations on a chain taken as a union of partial order-preserving mappings. In so doing we establish a link with syntactic semigroups of languages that are themselves cyclic semigroups. We apply the extended transform with a view to generating de Bruijn words through inverting the transform. We also make use of de Bruijn words to facilitate a proof that the maximum number of distinct factors of a word of length n has the form 12n2−O(nlogn).
