We provide a formalisation of the theory of pushdown automata (PDAs) using the HOL4 theorem prover. It illustrates how provers such as HOL can be used for mechanising complicated p...
An Active Context-Free Game is a game with two players (Romeo and Juliet) on strings over a finite alphabet. In each move, Juliet selects a position of the current word and Romeo ...
Developing linguistic resources, in particular grammars, is known to be a complex task in itself, because of (amongst others) redundancy and consistency issues. Furthermore some l...

A subpansive tree is a rooted tree that gives a partial order of nonterminal symbols of a context-free grammar. We formalize subpansive trees as background knowledge of CFGs, and i...
Leftist grammars can be characterized in terms of rules of the form a → ba and cd → d, without distinction between terminals and nonterminals. They were introduced by Motwani e...
