Abstract: In 2017, Clark Kimberling defined an interesting sequence B = 0100101100 of 0's and 1's by certain inflation rules, and he made a number of conjectures about this sequence and some related ones. In this note we prove his conjectures using, in part, the Walnut theorem-prover. We show how his word is related to the infinite Tribonacci word, and we determine both the factor complexity and critical exponent of B. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
