—Data trees are trees in which each node, besides carrying a label from a finite alphabet, also carries a data value infinite domain. They have been used as an abstraction mode...
Dominance links were introduced in grammars to model long distance scrambling phenomena, motivating the definition of multiset-valued linear indexed grammars (MLIGs) by Rambow (19...
We present a new proof of PSPACE-hardness of the emptiness problem for alternating finite automata with a singleton alphabet. This result was shown by Holzer (1995) who used a pr...
We consider decidability questions for the emptiness problem of intersections of matrix semigroups. This problem was studied by A. Markov [7] and more recently by V. Halava and T....
Abstract. This paper tackles three algorithmic problems for probabilistic automata on finite words: the Emptiness Problem, the Isolation Problem and the Value 1 Problem. The Empti...
In this paper we study a subclass of pebble automata (PA) for data languages for which the emptiness problem is decidable. Namely, we show that the emptiness problem for weak 2-peb...
ABSTRACT. We continue the study of bottom-up unranked tree automata with equality and disequality constraints between direct subtrees. In particular, we show that the emptiness pro...
