Some results on cellular automata

Claudio Baiocchi (1998)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We want to discuss some properties of one-dimensional, radius 1, CUCAs (we denote by CUCA a Computationally Universal Cellular Automaton; see later on for the definitions). In particular, on one hand we want to keep small the number of states (the first example of «small» CUCA is due to Smith III [13]; it requires 18 states); on the other hand we are interested into automata, possibly requiring a high number of states, whose transition law is «as simple as possible»; e.g. totalistic automata (the...

Some results on complexity of μ-calculus evaluation in the black-box model

Paweł Parys (2013)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

We consider μ-calculus formulas in a normal form: after a prefix of fixed-point quantifiers follows a quantifier-free expression. We are interested in the problem of evaluating (model checking) such formulas in a powerset lattice. We assume that the quantifier-free part of the expression can be any monotone function given by a black-box – we may only ask for its value for given arguments. As a first result we prove that when the lattice is fixed, the problem becomes polynomial (the assumption about...

Some results on C-varieties

Jean-Éric Pin, Howard Straubing (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

In an earlier paper, the second author generalized Eilenberg's variety theory by establishing a basic correspondence between certain classes of monoid morphisms and families of regular languages. We extend this theory in several directions. First, we prove a version of Reiterman's theorem concerning the definition of varieties by identities, and illustrate this result by describing the identities associated with languages of the form (a1a2...ak)+, where a1,...,ak are distinct letters. Next,...

We extend this theory in several directions.

Next, we generalize the notions...

Some Thoughts on the Near-Future Digital Mathematics Library

Bouche, Thierry (2008)

Towards Digital Mathematics Library. Birmingham, United Kingdom, July 27th, 2008

The mathematicians’ Digital mathematics library (DML) summarises the generous project that all mathematics ever published should end up in digital form so that it would be more easily referenced, accessed, used. This concept was formulated at the very beginning of this century, and yielded a lot of international activity that culminated around years 2002–2005. While it is estimated that a substantial part of the existing math literature is already available in some digital format, nothing looking...

Some very effective methods of searching in tables

Jaroslav Král (1969)

Aplikace matematiky

In this paper several methods for constructing tables without repetition of items are studied from the probabilstic point of view. Formulae for expected values of the number of examinations of the kind “is x placed in cell T i in a table T ?” are given. The situation when a table T is placed on a backing store of a computer and segmented is also considered. Described methods are very useful in many systems of information processing.
