Algebraic and graph-theoretic properties of infinite -posets
A -labeled -poset is an (at most) countable set, labeled in the set , equipped with partial orders. The collection of all -labeled -posets is naturally equipped with binary product operations and -ary product operations. Moreover, the -ary product operations give rise to -power operations. We show that those -labeled -posets that can be generated from the singletons by the binary and -ary product operations form the free algebra on in a variety...
Axiomatizing omega and omega-op powers of words
In 1978, Courcelle asked for a complete set of axioms and rules for the equational theory of (discrete regular) words equipped with the operations of product, omega power and omega-op power. In this paper we find a simple set of equations and prove they are complete. Moreover, we show that the equational theory is decidable in polynomial time.
Regular languages definable by Lindström quantifiers
In our main result, we establish a formal connection between Lindström quantifiers with respect to regular languages and the double semidirect product of finite monoids with a distinguished set of generators. We use this correspondence to characterize the expressive power of Lindström quantifiers associated with a class of regular languages.
A fully equational proof of Parikh’s theorem
We show that the validity of Parikh’s theorem for context-free languages depends only on a few equational properties of least pre-fixed points. Moreover, we exhibit an infinite basis of -term equations of continuous commutative idempotent semirings.
