Representations of a free group of rank two by time-varying Mealy automata

Adam Woryna (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

In the group theory various representations of free groups are used. A representation of a free group of rank two by the so-calledtime-varying Mealy automata over the changing alphabet is given. Two different constructions of such automata are presented.

Returning and non-returning parallel communicating finite automata are equivalent

Ashish Choudhary, Kamala Krithivasan, Victor Mitrana (2007)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

A parallel communicating automata system consists of several automata working independently in parallel and communicating with each other by request with the aim of recognizing a word. Rather surprisingly, returning parallel communicating finite automata systems are equivalent to the non-returning variants. We show this result by proving the equivalence of both with multihead finite automata. Some open problems are finally formulated.

Root clustering of words

Gerhard Lischke (2014)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Six kinds of both of primitivity and periodicity of words, introduced by Ito and Lischke [M. Ito and G. Lischke, Math. Log. Quart. 53 (2007) 91–106; Corrigendum in Math. Log. Quart. 53 (2007) 642–643], give rise to defining six kinds of roots of a nonempty word. For 1 ≤ k ≤ 6, a k-root word is a word which has exactly k different roots, and a k-cluster is a set of k-root words u where the roots of u fulfil a given prefix relationship. We show that out of the 89 different clusters that can be considered...

Self-reproducing pushdown transducers

Alexander Meduna, Luboš Lorenc (2005)

Kybernetika

After a translation of an input string, x , to an output string, y , a self- reproducing pushdown transducer can make a self-reproducing step during which it moves y to its input tape and translates it again. In this self- reproducing way, it can repeat the translation n -times for any n 1 . This paper demonstrates that every recursively enumerable language can be characterized by the domain of the translation obtained from a self- reproducing pushdown transducer that repeats its translation no more than...

Semi-commutations and Partial commutations

M. Clerbout, Y. Roos, I. Ryl (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

The aim of this paper is to show that a semi-commutation function can be expressed as the compound of a sequential transformation, a partial commutation function, and the reverse transformation. Moreover, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the image of a regular language to be computed by the compound of two sequential functions and a partial commutation function.

Semigroups defined by automaton extension mapping

Mirosław Osys (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

We study semigroups generated by the restrictions of automaton extension (see, e.g., [3]) and give a characterization of automaton extensions that generate finite semigroups.
