Description
Consider a sequence (Formula presented.) of i.i.d. uniform random variables taking values in the alphabet set {1, 2,…, d}. A k-superpattern is a realization of (Formula presented.) that contains, as an embedded subsequence, each of the non-order-isomorphic subpatterns of length k. We focus on the (non-trivial) case of d = k = 3 and study the waiting time distribution of (Formula presented.). Our restricted set-up leads to proofs that are very combinatorial in nature, since we are essentially conducting a string analysis.
