Résumé

The $L S$ (Look and Say) derivative of a word is obtained by writing the number of consecutive equal letters when the word is spelled from left to right. For example, $L S (1 1 2 3 3) = 2 1 1 2 2 3$ (two $1$ , one $2$ , two $3$ ). We start the study of the behaviour of binary words generated by morphisms under the $L S$ operator, focusing in particular on the Fibonacci word.
