The ubiquitous Prouhet-Thue-Morse sequence
- Sequences and their applications, Proceedings of SETA’98
, 1999
"... We discuss a well-known binary sequence called the Thue-Morse sequence, or the Prouhet-Thue-Morse sequence. This sequence was introduced by Thue in 1906 and rediscovered by Morse in 1921.

We discuss a well-known binary sequence called the Thue-Morse sequence, or the Prouhet-Thue-Morse sequence. This sequence was introduced by Thue in 1906 and rediscovered by Morse in 1921. However, it was already implicit in an 1851 paper of Prouhet. The Prouhet-Thue-Morse sequence appears to be somewhat ubiquitous, and we describe many of its apparently unrelated occurrences.
Axel Thue's work on repetitions in words

The purpose of this survey is to present, in contemporary terminology, the fundamental contributions of Axel Thue to the study of combinatorial properties of sequences of symbols, insofar as repetitions are concerned. The present state of the art is also sketched.
