  • Abstract
    A composition of an integer n is called Carlitz if adjacent parts are different. Several characteristics of random Carlitz compositions have been studied recently by Knopfmacher and Prodinger. We will complement their work by establishing asymptotics of the average number of distinct part sizes in a random Carlitz composition.
