We study the relation between the standard two-way automata and more powerful devices, namely, two-way finite automata equipped with some ℓ additional “pebbles” that are movable along the input tape, but their use is restricted (nested) in a stack-like fashion. Similarly as in the case of the classical two-way machines, it is not known whether there exists a polynomial trade-off, in the number of states, between the nondeterministic and deterministic two-way automata with ℓ nested pebbles....
