Abstract: Fraenkel and Simpson showed that the number of distinct squares in a word of length n is bounded from above by 2n, since at most two distinct squares have their rightmost, or last, occurrence begin at each position. Improvements by Ilie to and by Deza et al. to 11n/6 rely on the study of combinatorics of FS-double-squares, when the maximum number of two last occurrences of squares begin. In this paper, we first study how to maximize runs of FS-double-squares in the prefix of a word. We show that for a given positive integer m, the minimum length of a word beginning with m FS-double-squares, whose lengths are equal, is 7m+3. We construct such a word and analyze its distinct-square-sequence as well as its distinct-square-density. We then generalize our construction. We also construct words with high distinct-square-densities that approach 5/6.
