We examine the succinctness of one-way, rotating, sweeping, and two-way deterministic finite automata (1dfas, rdfas, sdfas, 2dfas). Here, a sdfa is a 2dfa whose head can change di...
We consider multi-pushdown automata, a multi-stack extension of pushdown automata that comes with a constraint on stack operations: a pop can only be performed on the first non-emp...

Abstract. Let w be an equality word of two nonperiodic binary morphisms g, h : {a, b} . Suppose that no overflow occurs twice in w and that w contains at least 9 occurrences of a ...
We show that for several classes of idempotent semirings the least fixed-point of a polynomial system of equations X = f(X) is equal to the least fixed-point of a linear system obt...

Abstract. In a recent paper with L. Q. Zamboni the authors introduced the class of -episturmian words, where is an involutory antimorphism of the free monoid A . In this paper, we...

Finite words and their overlap properties are considered in this paper. Let w be a finite word of length n with period p and where the maximum length of its unbordered factors equ...
Abstract. Since recognizable tree languages are closed under the rational operations, every regular tree expression denotes a recognizable tree language. We provide an alternative ...
A graph H is computable if there is a graph G = (V, E) isomorphic to H where the set V of vertices and the edge relation E are both computable. In this case G is called a computabl...
Extended multi bottom-up tree transducers are dened and investigated. They are an extension of multi bottom-up tree transducers by arbitrary, not just shallow, left-hand sides of ...
