On the Shuffle of Star-Free Languages
2012
Motivated by the general problem to characterize families of languages closed under shuffle, we investigate some conditions under which the shuffle of two star-free languages is star-free. Some of the special cases here approached give rise to new problems in combinatorics on words.
Capabilities of Ultrametric Automata with One, Two, and Three States
2016
Ultrametric automata use p-adic numbers to describe the random branching of the process of computation. Previous research has shown that ultrametric automata can have a significant decrease in computing complexity. In this paper we consider the languages that can be recognized by one-way ultrametric automata with one, two, and three states. We also show an example of a promise problem that can be solved by ultrametric integral automaton with three states.
Unavoidable sets and circular splicing languages
2017
Circular splicing systems are a formal model of a generative mechanism of circular words, inspired by a recombinant behaviour of circular DNA. They are defined by a finite alphabet A, an initial set I of circular words, and a set R of rules. In this paper, we focus on the still unknown relations between regular languages and circular splicing systems with a finite initial set and a finite set R of rules represented by a pair of letters ( ( 1 , 3 ) -CSSH systems). When R = A × A , it is known that the set of all words corresponding to the splicing language belongs to the class of pure unitary languages, introduced by Ehrenfeucht, Haussler, Rozenberg in 1983. They also provided a characteriza…
Combinatorial aspects of L-convex polyominoes
2007
We consider the class of L-convex polyominoes, i.e. those polyominoes in which any two cells can be connected with an ''L'' shaped path in one of its four cyclic orientations. The paper proves bijectively that the number f"n of L-convex polyominoes with perimeter 2(n+2) satisfies the linear recurrence relation f"n"+"2=4f"n"+"1-2f"n, by first establishing a recurrence of the same form for the cardinality of the ''2-compositions'' of a natural number n, a simple generalization of the ordinary compositions of n. Then, such 2-compositions are studied and bijectively related to certain words of a regular language over four letters which is in turn bijectively related to L-convex polyominoes. In …
On a class of languages recognizable by probabilistic reversible decide-and-halt automata
2009
AbstractWe analyze the properties of probabilistic reversible decide-and-halt automata (DH-PRA) and show that there is a strong relationship between DH-PRA and 1-way quantum automata. We show that a general class of regular languages is not recognizable by DH-PRA by proving that two “forbidden” constructions in minimal deterministic automata correspond to languages not recognizable by DH-PRA. The shown class is identical to a class known to be not recognizable by 1-way quantum automata. We also prove that the class of languages recognizable by DH-PRA is not closed under union and other non-trivial Boolean operations.
First-order expressibility of languages with neutral letters or: The Crane Beach conjecture
2005
A language L over an alphabet A is said to have a neutral letter if there is a letter [email protected]?A such that inserting or deleting e's from any word in A^* does not change its membership or non-membership in L. The presence of a neutral letter affects the definability of a language in first-order logic. It was conjectured that it renders all numerical predicates apart from the order predicate useless, i.e., that if a language L with a neutral letter is not definable in first-order logic with linear order, then it is not definable in first-order logic with any set N of numerical predicates. Named after the location of its first, flawed, proof this conjecture is called the Crane Beach …
On the Power of Tree-Walking Automata
2000
Tree-walking automata (TWAs) recently received new attention in the fields of formal languages and databases. Towards a better understanding of their expressiveness, we characterize them in terms of transitive closure logic formulas in normal form. It is conjectured by Engelfriet and Hoogeboom that TWAs cannot define all regular tree languages, or equivalently, all of monadic second-order logic. We prove this conjecture for a restricted, but powerful, class of TWAs. In particular, we show that 1-bounded TWAs, that is TWAs that are only allowed to traverse every edge of the input tree at most once in every direction, cannot define all regular languages. We then extend this result to a class …
ON THE STAR HEIGHT OF RATIONAL LANGUAGES
1994
Two problems concerning the star height of a rational language are investigated: the star height one problem and the relationships between the unambiguity of an expression and its star height. For this purpose we consider the class of factorial, transitive and rational (FTR) languages. From the algebraic point of view a FTR language is the set of factors of a rational submonoid M. Two subclasses of FTR languages are introduced: renewal languages, corresponding to the case of M finitely generated, and unambiguous renewal languages, corresponding to the case of M finitely generated and free. We prove that a FTR language has star height one if and only if it is renewal. This gives a simple de…
Finite State Verifiers with Constant Randomness
2012
We give a new characterization of NL as the class of languages whose members have certificates that can be verified with small error in polynomial time by finite state machines that use a constant number of random bits, as opposed to its conventional description in terms of deterministic logarithmic-space verifiers. It turns out that allowing two-way interaction with the prover does not change the class of verifiable languages, and that no polynomially bounded amount of randomness is useful for constant-memory computers when used as language recognizers, or public-coin verifiers.
