Using Contextual Representations to Efficiently Learn Context-Free Languages
We present a polynomial update time algorithm for the inductive inference of a large class of context-free languages using the paradigm of positive data and a membership oracle. W...

The Pumping Lemma for Well-Nested Multiple Context-Free Languages
Seki et al. (1991) proved a rather weak pumping lemma for multiple context-free languages, which says that any infinite m-multiple context-free language contains a string that is p...

Parallel RAMs with owned global memory and deterministic context-free language recognition
We identify and study a natural and frequently occurring subclass of Concurrent Read, Exclusive Write Parallel Random Access Machines (CREW-PRAMs). Called Concurrent Read, Owner Wr...

Enumeration of Context-Free Languages and Related Structures
In this paper, we consider the enumeration of context-free languages. In particular, for any reasonable descriptional complexity measure for context-free grammars, we demonstrate ...

Recursive Program Schemes and Context-Free Monads
Solutions of recursive program schemes over a given signature were characterized by Bruno Courcelle as precisely the context-free (or algebraic) -trees. These are the finite and ...

Polynomial-Time Identification of Multiple Context-Free Languages from Positive Data and Membership Queries
This paper presents an efficient algorithm that identifies a rich subclass of multiple context-free languages in the limit from positive data and membership queries by observing wh...

Boolean algebras of unambiguous context-free languages
Several recent works have studied subfamilies of deterministic context-free languages with good closure properties, for instance the families of input-driven or visibly pushdown la...

Bounded Underapproximations
We show a new and constructive proof of the following language-theoretic result: for every context-free language L, there is a bounded context-free language L L which has the same...

Characterization of Context-Free Languages with Polynomially Bounded Ambiguity
Abstract. We prove that the class of context-free languages with polynomially bounded ambiguity (PCFL) is the closure of the class of unambiguous languages (UCFL) under projections...

The Dynamic Complexity of Formal Languages
The paper investigates the power of the dynamic complexity classes DynFO, DynQF and DynPROP over string languages. The latter two classes contain problems that can be maintained us...
