Abstract

An extension of the problem of reconstruction of words from a given multiset of its subwords supposedly generated by unit shifts of a window of fixed length along such words. In the extension, feasible solutions must satisfy additional constraints. The case is considered when these constraints are specified by forbidden words. A solution to the problem is obtained as a result of searching for Euler paths or Euler cycles in a de Bruijn multidigraph with the additional operation of reduction of its edges and subsequent application of special algebraic operations of multiplication of adjacency matrices as in the first part of this article.
