Closure properties of hyper-minimized automata

Andrzej Szepietowski (2012)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

Two deterministic finite automata are almost equivalent if they disagree in acceptance only for finitely many inputs. An automaton is hyper-minimized if no automaton with fewer states is almost equivalent to . A regular language is canonical if the minimal automaton accepting is hyper-minimized. The asymptotic state complexity () of a regular language is the number of states of a hyper-minimized automaton...

Regularity of languages defined by formal series with isolated cut point

Alberto Bertoni, Maria Paola Bianchi, Flavi D’Alessandro (2012)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

Let  = { ∈  | ()  } be the language recognized by a formal series :  → ℝ with isolated cut point . We provide new conditions that guarantee the regularity of the language in the case that is rational or is a Hadamard quotient of rational series. Moreover the decidability property of such conditions is investigated.

Equality sets for recursively enumerable languages

Vesa Halava, Tero Harju, Hendrik Jan Hoogeboom, Michel Latteux (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

We consider shifted equality sets of the form , where and are nonerasing morphisms and is a letter. We are interested in the family consisting of the languages , where is a coding and is a shifted equality set. We prove several closure properties for this family. Moreover, we show that every recursively enumerable language is a projection of a shifted equality set, that is, for some (nonerasing) morphisms and and...

Integers in number systems with positive and negative quadratic Pisot base

Z. Masáková, T. Vávra (2014)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

We consider numeration systems with base and − , for quadratic Pisot numbers and focus on comparing the combinatorial structure of the sets Z and Z of numbers with integer expansion in base , resp. − . Our main result is the comparison of languages of infinite words and coding the ordering of distances between consecutive - and (− )-integers. It turns out that for a class of roots of − − , the languages coincide, while for other...

Linear size test sets for certain commutative languages

Štěpán Holub, Juha Kortelainen (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

We prove that for each positive integer the finite commutative language = ( ...) possesses a test set of size at most Moreover, it is shown that each test set for has at least -1 elements. The result is then generalized to commutative languages containing a word such that (i) alph() = alph}(); and (ii) each symbol ∈ alph}() occurs at least twice in if it occurs at least twice in some word of : each such possesses...

Complexity of infinite words associated with beta-expansions

Christiane Frougny, Zuzana Masáková, Edita Pelantová (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

We study the complexity of the infinite word associated with the Rényi expansion of in an irrational base . When is the golden ratio, this is the well known Fibonacci word, which is Sturmian, and of complexity . For such that is finite we provide a simple description of the structure of special factors of the word . When =1 we show that . In the cases when or max} we show that the first difference of the complexity function takes value in for every , and consequently we determine...

Pointwise constrained radially increasing minimizers in the quasi-scalar calculus of variations

Luís Balsa Bicho, António Ornelas (2014)

Similarity:

We prove of vector minimizers () =  (||) to multiple integrals ∫ ((), |()|)  on a  ⊂ ℝ, among the Sobolev functions (·) in + (, ℝ), using a  : ℝ×ℝ → [0,∞] with (·) and . Besides such basic hypotheses, (·,·) is assumed to satisfy also...

On the distribution of characteristic parameters of words

Arturo Carpi, Aldo de Luca (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

For any finite word on a finite alphabet, we consider the basic parameters and of defined as follows: is the minimal natural number for which has no right special factor of length and is the minimal natural number for which has no repeated suffix of length . In this paper we study the distributions of these parameters, here called characteristic parameters, among the words ...
