Generalizations of Parikh mappings
RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications, Tome 44 (2010) no. 2, pp. 209-228.

Parikh matrices have become a useful tool for investigation of subword structure of words. Several generalizations of this concept have been considered. Based on the concept of formal power series, we describe a general framework covering most of these generalizations. In addition, we provide a new characterization of binary amiable words - words having a common Parikh matrix.
