How expressions can code for automata

Sylvain LombardyJacques Sakarovitch — 2005

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

In this paper we investigate how it is possible to recover an automaton from a rational expression that has been computed from that automaton. The notion of derived term of an expression, introduced by Antimirov, appears to be instrumental in this problem. The second important ingredient is the co-minimization of an automaton, a dual and generalized Moore algorithm on non-deterministic automata. We show here that if an automaton is then sufficiently “decorated”, the combination of these two algorithms...

Corrigendum to our paper: How Expressions Can Code for Automata

Sylvain LombardyJacques Sakarovitch — 2010

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

In a previous paper, we have described the construction of an automaton from a rational expression which has the property that the automaton built from an expression which is itself computed from a co-deterministic automaton by the state elimination method is co-deterministic. It turned out that the definition on which the construction is based was inappropriate, and thus the proof of the property was flawed. We give here the correct definition of the broken derived terms of an...
