On the topological complexity of infinitary rational relations

Olivier Finkel (2003)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

We prove in this paper that there exists some infinitary rational relations which are analytic but non Borel sets, giving an answer to a question of Simonnet [20].

Relating automata-theoretic hierarchies to complexity-theoretic hierarchies

Victor L. Selivanov (2002)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

We show that some natural refinements of the Straubing and Brzozowski hierarchies correspond (via the so called leaf-languages) step by step to similar refinements of the polynomial-time hierarchy. This extends a result of Burtschik and Vollmer on relationship between the Straubing and the polynomial hierarchies. In particular, this applies to the Boolean hierarchy and the plus-hierarchy.

The communication hierarchy of time and space bounded parallel machines

Norbert Popély (2003)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

We describe the communicating alternating machines and their simulation. We show that, in the case of communicating alternating machines which are bounded, simultaneously, by polynomial time and logarithmic space, the use of three communication levels instead of two does not increase computational power of communicating alternating machines. This resolves an open problem [2] concerning the exact position of machines with three communication levels in the hierarchy.

The limit lemma in fragments of arithmetic

Vítězslav Švejdar (2003)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The recursion theoretic limit lemma, saying that each function with a 𝛴 n + 2 graph is a limit of certain function with a 𝛥 n + 1 graph, is provable in B Σ n + 1 .
