 Davenport–Schinzel sequence

A Davenport–Schinzel sequence is a specific type of sequence formed by applying certain restrictions on the allowable subsequences. Named after mathematicians H. Davenport and A. Schinzel, these sequences arise in the context of combinatorial geometry and computational geometry. In a Davenport–Schinzel sequence, the sequences consist of elements drawn from a finite set, typically called the alphabet set, subject to specific constraints.
