Popis: In DNA computing experiments, it is important that the strands involved in the computation do not interact in an undesirable fashion. The mathematical formalization of the DNA WK-complementarity as an antimorphic involution, has motivated the generalization of various concepts in combinatorics of words to ones that involve pseudo-identity functions. Mismatches occurring in not so perfect WK-complement strands has motivated the study of partial words for DNA strands. In this paper, we aim to combine the concept of partial words with pseudo-identity functions, and study the basic notions such as primitivity, conjugacy, commutativity and borderedness property for partial words under morphic and antimorphic involutions.
