Mahler's expansion and Boolean functions.
An intrinsically non minimal-time Minsky-like 6-states solution to the Firing Squad synchronization problem
Here is presented a 6-states non minimal-time solution which is intrinsically Minsky-like and solves the three following problems: unrestricted version on a line, with one initiator at each end of a line and the problem on a ring. We also give a complete proof of correctness of our solution, which was never done in a publication for Minsky's solutions.
On maximal QROBDD’s of boolean functions
We investigate the structure of “worst-case” quasi reduced ordered decision diagrams and Boolean functions whose truth tables are associated to: we suggest different ways to count and enumerate them. We, then, introduce a notion of complexity which leads to the concept of “hard” Boolean functions as functions whose QROBDD are “worst-case” ones. So we exhibit the relation between hard functions and the Storage Access function (also known as Multiplexer).
