The isomorphism relation between tree-automatic Structures

Olivier Finkel, Stevo Todorčević (2010)

Open Mathematics

An ω-tree-automatic structure is a relational structure whose domain and relations are accepted by Muller or Rabin tree automata. We investigate in this paper the isomorphism problem for ω-tree-automatic structures. We prove first that the isomorphism relation for ω-tree-automatic boolean algebras (respectively, partial orders, rings, commutative rings, non commutative rings, non commutative groups, nilpotent groups of class n ≥ 2) is not determined by the axiomatic system ZFC. Then we prove that...

The μ-calculus alternation-depth hierarchy is strict on binary trees

André Arnold (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

In this paper we give a simple proof that the alternation-depth hierarchy of the μ-calculus for binary trees is strict. The witnesses for this strictness are the automata that determine whether there is a winning strategy for the parity game played on a tree.

Tree Automata and Automata on Linear Orderings

Véronique Bruyère, Olivier Carton, Géraud Sénizergues (2009)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

We show that the inclusion problem is decidable for rational languages of words indexed by scattered countable linear orderings. The method leans on a reduction to the decidability of the monadic second order theory of the infinite binary tree [9].
