A classification of rational languages by semilattice-ordered monoids

Libor Polák — 2004

Archivum Mathematicum

We prove here an Eilenberg type theorem: the so-called conjunctive varieties of rational languages correspond to the pseudovarieties of finite semilattice-ordered monoids. Taking complements of members of a conjunctive variety of languages we get a so-called disjunctive variety. We present here a non-trivial example of such a variety together with an equational characterization of the corresponding pseudovariety.

On biautomata

Ondřej KlímaLibor Polák — 2012

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

We initiate the theory and applications of biautomata. A biautomaton can read a word alternately from the left and from the right. We assign to each regular language its canonical biautomaton. This structure plays, among all biautomata recognizing the language , the same role as the minimal deterministic automaton has among all deterministic automata recognizing the language . We expect that from the graph structure of this automaton one could decide the membership of a given language for certain...

On Varieties of Literally Idempotent Languages

Ondřej KlímaLibor Polák — 2008

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

A language is literally idempotent in case that if and only if , for each , . Varieties of literally idempotent languages result naturally by taking all literally idempotent languages in a classical (positive) variety or by considering a certain closure operator on classes of languages. We initiate the systematic study of such varieties. Various classes of literally idempotent languages can be characterized using syntactic methods. A starting example is the class of all finite unions of B 1 * B 2 * B k * where...
