Iteration of rational transductions

Alain Terlutte, David Simplot (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

The purpose of this paper is to show connections between iterated length-preserving rational transductions and linear space computations. Hence, we study the smallest family of transductions containing length-preserving rational transductions and closed under union, composition and iteration. We give several characterizations of this class using restricted classes of length-preserving rational transductions, by showing the connections with "context-sensitive transductions" and transductions associated...

Job shop scheduling with unit length tasks

Meike Akveld, Raphael Bernhard (2012)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

In this paper, we consider a class of scheduling problems that are among the fundamental optimization problems in operations research. More specifically, we deal with a particular version called job shop scheduling with unit length tasks. Using the results of Hromkovič, Mömke, Steinhöfel, and Widmayer presented in their work Job Shop Scheduling with Unit Length Tasks: Bounds and Algorithms, we analyze the problem setting for 2 jobs with an unequal number of tasks. We contribute a deterministic algorithm...

K3-Worm Colorings of Graphs: Lower Chromatic Number and Gaps in the Chromatic Spectrum

Csilla Bujtás, Zsolt Tuza (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A K3-WORM coloring of a graph G is an assignment of colors to the vertices in such a way that the vertices of each K3-subgraph of G get precisely two colors. We study graphs G which admit at least one such coloring. We disprove a conjecture of Goddard et al. [Congr. Numer. 219 (2014) 161-173] by proving that for every integer k ≥ 3 there exists a K3-WORM-colorable graph in which the minimum number of colors is exactly k. There also exist K3-WORM colorable graphs which have a K3-WORM coloring with...

k-counting automata

Joël Allred, Ulrich Ultes-Nitsche (2012)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

In this paper, we define k-counting automata as recognizers for ω-languages, i.e. languages of infinite words. We prove that the class of ω-languages they recognize is a proper extension of the ω-regular languages. In addition we prove that languages recognized by k-counting automata are closed under Boolean operations. It remains an open problem whether or not emptiness is decidable for k-counting automata. However, we conjecture strongly that it is decidable and give formal reasons why we believe...

Kolmogorov complexity and probability measures

Jan Šindelář, Pavel Boček (2002)

Kybernetika

Classes of strings (infinite sequences resp.) with a specific flow of Kolmogorov complexity are introduced. Namely, lower bounds of Kolmogorov complexity are prescribed to strings (initial segments of infinite sequences resp.) of specified lengths. Dependence of probabilities of the classes on lower bounds of Kolmogorov complexity is the main theme of the paper. Conditions are found under which the probabilities of the classes of the strings are close to one. Similarly, conditions are derived under...

Kolmogorov complexity, pseudorandom generators and statistical models testing

Jan Šindelář, Pavel Boček (2002)

Kybernetika

An attempt to formalize heuristic concepts like strings (sequences resp.) “typical” for a probability measure is stated in the paper. Both generating and testing of such strings is considered. Kolmogorov complexity theory is used as a tool. Classes of strings “typical” for a given probability measure are introduced. It is shown that no pseudorandom generator can produce long strings from the classes. The time complexity of pseudorandom generators with oracles capable to recognize “typical” strings...
