Complexity of the axioms of the alternative set theory

Antonín Sochor (1993)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

If T is a complete theory stronger than ZF Fin such that axiom of extensionality for classes + T + ( X ) Φ i is consistent for 1 i k (each alone), where Φ i are normal formulae then we show AST + ( X ) Φ 1 + + ( X ) Φ k + scheme of choice is consistent. As a consequence we get: there is no proper Δ 1 -formula in AST + scheme of choice. Moreover the complexity of the axioms of AST is studied, e.gẇe show axiom of extensionality is Π 1 -formula, but not Σ 1 -formula and furthermore prolongation axiom, axioms of choice and cardinalities are Π 2 -formulae,...

Complexity results for prefix grammars

Markus Lohrey, Holger Petersen (2005)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Resolving an open problem of Ravikumar and Quan, we show that equivalence of prefix grammars is complete in PSPACE. We also show that membership for these grammars is complete in P (it was known that this problem is in P) and characterize the complexity of equivalence and inclusion for monotonic grammars. For grammars with several premises we show that membership is complete in EXPTIME and hard for PSPACE for monotonic grammars.

Computable categoricity versus relative computable categoricity

Rodney G. Downey, Asher M. Kach, Steffen Lempp, Daniel D. Turetsky (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We study the notion of computable categoricity of computable structures, comparing it especially to the notion of relative computable categoricity and its relativizations. We show that every 1 decidable computably categorical structure is relatively Δ⁰₂ categorical. We study the complexity of various index sets associated with computable categoricity and relative computable categoricity. We also introduce and study a variation of relative computable categoricity, comparing it to both computable...

Computing the Rabin Index of a Parity Automaton

Olivier Carton, Ramón Maceiras (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

The Rabin index of a rational language of infinite words given by a parity automaton with n states is computable in time O(n2c) where c is the cardinality of the alphabet. The number of values used by a parity acceptance condition is always greater than the Rabin index and conversely, the acceptance condition of a parity automaton can always be replaced by an equivalent acceptance condition whose number of used values is exactly the Rabin index. This new acceptance condition can also be...
