Abstract:
In this paper, we introduce the notion of distributed ω-automata. Distributed ω-automata are a group of automata working in unison to accept an ω-language. We build the theory of distributed ω-automata for finite state automata and pushdown automata in different modes of cooperation like the t-mode, *-mode, = k-mode, ≤ k-mode and ≥ k-mode along with different acceptance criteria i.e. Büchi-, Muller-, Rabin- and Streett- acceptance criteria. We then analyze the acceptance power of such automata in all the above modes of cooperation and acceptance criteria. We present proofs that distributed ω-finite state automata do not have any additional power over ω-finite state automata in any of the modes of cooperation or acceptance criteria, while distributed ω-pushdown automata can accept languages not in CFLω. We give proofs for the equivalence of all modes of cooperation and acceptance criteria in the case of distributed ω-pushdown automata. We show that the power of distributed ω-pushdown automata is equal to that of ω-Turing Machines. We also study the deterministic version of distributed ω-pushdown automata. Deterministic ω-pushdown automata accept only languages contained in CFLω but distributed deterministic ω-pushdown automata can accept languages not in CFLω and have the same power as their nondeterministic counterparts. We also define distributed completely deterministic ω-pushdown automata and analyze their power.

Abstract:
We extend the concept of factorization on finite words to ω-rational languages and show how to compute them. We define a normal form for Büchi automata and introduce a universal automaton for Büchi automata in normal form. We prove that, for every ω-rational language, this Büchi automaton, based on factorization, is canonical and that it is the smallest automaton that contains the morphic image of every equivalent Büchi automaton in normal form.

Abstract:
We introduce and study three notions of typeness for automata on infinite words. For an acceptance-condition class γ (that is, γ is weak, Büchi, co-Büchi, Rabin, or Streett), deterministic γ-typeness asks for the existence of an equivalent γ-automaton on the same deterministic structure, nondeterministic γ-typeness asks for the existence of an equivalent γ-automaton on the same structure, and γ-powerset-typeness asks for the existence of an equivalent γ-automaton on the (deterministic) powerset structure – one obtained by applying the subset construction. The notions are helpful in studying the complexity and complication of translations between the various classes of automata. For example, we prove that deterministic Büchi automata are co-Büchi type; it follows that a translation from deterministic Büchi to deterministic co-Büchi automata, when exists, involves no blow up. On the other hand, we prove that nondeterministic Büchi automata are not co-Büchi type; it follows that a translation from a nondeterministic Büchi to nondeterministic co-Büchi automata, when exists, should be more complicated than just redefining the acceptance condition. As a third example, by proving that nondeterministic co-Büchi automata are Büchi-powerset type, we show that a translation of nondeterministic co-Büchi to deterministic Büchi automata, when exists, can be done applying the subset construction. We give a complete picture of typeness for the weak, Büchi, co-Büchi, Rabin, and Streett acceptance conditions, and discuss its usefulness.

Abstract:
We study minimization problems for deterministic ω-automata in the presence of don’t care words. We prove that the number of priorities in deterministic parity automata can be efficiently minimized under an arbitrary set of don’t care words. We derive that from a more general result from which one also obtains an efficient minimization algorithm for deterministic parity automata with informative right-congruence (without don’t care words). We then analyze languages of don’t care words with a trivial right-congruence. For such sets of don’t care words it is known that weak deterministic Büchi automata (WDBA) have a unique minimal automaton that can be efficiently computed from a given WDBA (Eisinger, Klaedtke 2006). We give a congruence-based characterization of the corresponding minimal WDBA, and show that the don’t care minimization results for WDBA do not extend to deterministic ω-automata with informative right-congruence: for this class there is no unique minimal automaton for a given don’t care set with trivial right congruence, and the minimization problem is NP-hard. Finally, we extend an active learning algorithm for WDBA (Maler, Pnueli 1995) to the setting with an additional set of don’t care words with trivial right-congruence.

Abstract:
AbstractWe consider ωn-automatic structures which are relational structures whose domain and relations are accepted by automata reading ordinal words of length ωn for some integer n ≥ 1. We show that all these structures are ω-tree-automatic structures presentable by Muller or Rabin tree automata. We prove that the isomorphism relation for ω2-automatic (resp. ωn-automatic for n > 2) boolean algebras (respectively, partial orders, rings, commutative rings, non commutative rings, non commutative groups) is not determined by the axiomatic system ZFC. We infer from the proof of the above result that the isomorphism problem for ωn-automatic boolean algebras, n ≥ 2, (respectively, rings, commutative rings, non commutative rings, non commutative groups) is neither a -set nor a -set. We obtain that there exist infinitely many ωn-automatic, hence also ω-tree-automatic, atomless boolean algebras , which are pairwise isomorphic under the continuum hypothesis CH and pairwise non isomorphic under an alternate axiom AT, strengthening a result of [14].

Abstract:
In this paper we consider pushdown automata on infinite trees with empty stack as the accepting condition (ω-EPDTA). We provide the following regarding ω-EPDTA: (a) its relationship to other Pushdown automata on infinite trees, (b) a Kleene-Closure theorem and (c) a single exponential time algorithm for checking emptiness. We demonstrate the usefulness of ω-EPDTA through two example applications: defining the temporal uniform inevitability property and specifying a context-free process with unbounded state space, both of which cannot be defined and/or specified by the classical finite state automata on infinite trees. We also discuss the relevance of the results presented here to model-checking.

Given a two-way finite automaton recognizing a non-empty language, consider the length of the shortest string it accepts, and, for each n ≥ 1, let f(n) be the maximum of these lengths over all n-state automata. It is proved that for n-state two-way finite automata, whether deterministic or nondeterministic, this number is at least Ω(10n/5) and less than (2nn+1), with the lower bound reached over an alphabet of size Θ(n). Furthermore, for deterministic automata and for a fixed alphabet of size m ≥ 1, the length of the shortest string is at least e(1+o(1))mn(log n− log m).

Furthermore, we introduce nondeterministic finite online tessellation h -automata on ω ω − partial array languages. In addition, we prove that the class of all adherences of finite local partial array languages is equal to the class of all local ω ω − partial array languages and also prove that every ω ω − regular partial array language is a projection of Buchi local ω ω − partial array language.

Abstract:
We investigate the descriptional complexity of deterministic one-way multi-head finite automata accepting unary languages. It is known that in this case the languages accepted are regular. Thus, we study the increase of the number of states when an n-state k-head finite automaton is simulated by a classical (one-head) deterministic or nondeterministic finite automaton. In the former case upper and lower bounds that are tight in the order of magnitude are shown. For the latter case we obtain an upper bound of O(n2k) and a lower bound of Ω(nk) states. We investigate also the costs for the conversion of one-head nondeterministic finite automata to deterministic k-head finite automata, that is, we trade nondeterminism for heads. In addition, we study how the conversion costs vary in the special case of finite and, in particular, of singleton unary lanuages. Finally, as an application of the simulation results, we show that decidability problems for unary deterministic k-head finite automata such as emptiness or equivalence are LOGSPACE-complete.

Abstract:
The article surveys some decidability results concerning simplification problems for DPDAs on infinite words (ω-DPDAs). We summarize some recent results on the regularity problem, which asks for a given ω-DPDA, whether its language can also be accepted by a finite automaton. The results also give some insights on the equivalence problem for a subclass of ω-DPDA. Furthermore, we present some new results on the parity index problem for ω-DPDAs. For the specification of a parity condition, the states of the ω-DPDA are assigned priorities (natural numbers), and a run is accepting if the highest priority that appears infinitely often during a run is even. The basic simplification question asks whether one can determine the minimal number of priorities that are needed to accept the language of a given ω-DPDA. We provide some decidability results on variations of this question for some classes of ω-DPDAs.

AbstractWe consider an extension of logic programs, called ω-programs, that can be used to define predicates overinfinite lists. ω-programs allow us to specify properties of the infinite behavior of reactive systems and, in general, properties of infinite sequences of events. The semantics of ω-programs is an extension of the perfect model semantics. We present variants of the familiar unfold/fold rules which can be used for transforming ω-programs. We show that these new rules are correct, that is, their application preserves the perfect model semantics. Then we outline a general methodology based on program transformation for verifying properties of ω-programs. We demonstrate the power of our transformation-based verification methodology by proving some properties of Büchi automata and ω-regular languages.

Our main result shows that the formal power series arising in this way are precisely the ones which can be constructed using ω-rational operations. This extends the classical Kleene–Schützenberger result for weighted finite automata to the case of infinite words and generalizes Büchi's theorem on languages of infinite words.

Abstract:
This 12th part of our Nonlinear Dynamics Perspective of Cellular Automata concludes a series of three articles devoted to CA local rules having robust periodic ω-limit orbits. Here, we consider only the two rules, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], constituting the third of the six groups in which we classified the 1D binary Cellular Automata. Among the numerous theoretical results contained in this article, we emphasize the complete characterization of the ω-limit orbits, both robust and nonrobust, of these two rules and the proof that period-3 and period-6 ω-limit orbits are dense for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively. Furthermore, we will also introduce the fundamental concepts of perfect period-T orbitsets and riddled basins, and see how they emerge in rule [Formula: see text]. As stated in the title, we also focus on permutive rules, which have been introduced in a previous installment of our series but never thoroughly studied. Indeed, we will review some of the well-known properties of such rules, like the surjectivity, examining their implications for finite and bi-infinite Cellular Automata. Finally, we propose a new list of the 88 globally-independent local rules, which is slightly different from the one we have used so far but has the great advantage of being selected via a rigorous methodology and not an arbitrary choice. For the sake of completeness, we display in the appendix the basin tree diagrams and the portraits of the ω-limit orbits of the rules from this refined table which have not yet been reported in our previous articles.

Abstract:
Cover automata were introduced a few years ago for designing a compact representation of finite languages. Our aim is to extend this notion to cover transducers for functions with finite domain. Given two alphabets Σ and Ω, and a function α : Σ* → Ω* of order l (the maximal length of a word in the domain of α), a cover transducer for α is any subsequential transducer that realizes the function α when its input is restricted to the set of words of Σ* having a length not greater than l. We study the problem of reducing the number of states of a cover transducer. We report experimental results, from an implementation using WFSC (Weighted Finite State Compiler), a Xerox tool for handling weighted finite state automata and transducers.

Abstract:
For a given integer n, we define ωn-semigroups as a generalization of ω-semigroups for languages of words of length less than ωn+1. When they are finite, those algebraic structures define the same sets as those recognized by Choueka automata. These sets are also equivalent to regular expressions in which an unary ω operator standing for the infinite repetition of a language is as free as the Kleene closure operator is. Naturally, the notion of syntactic congruence still works on ωn-semigroups: among all ωn-semigroups recognizing a regular language X, there exists an unique ωn-semigroup of which all others are refinements.

Abstract:
I am a fan of Sheldon Ross' textbooks on probability; they are concise and full of interesting exercises. He and Erol Pek¨oz have just released a second edition of A Second Course in Probability (Cambridge University Press, 2023), which promises a rigorous but accessible and modern introduction to a selection of advanced topics in the field. Javier Esparza's work includes using automata to study model checking, program analysis and verification. His book (coauthored with Michael Blondin) Automata Theory: An Algorithmic Approach (The MIT Press, 2023) emphasizes efficient constructions of (ω-)automata and other algorithmic concerns. Filterworld: How Algorithms Flattened Culture by New Yorker staff writer Kyle Chayka (Doubleday, 2024) investigates the pervasive impact of algorithms on consumption and distribution of culture and explores ways to reclaim our freedom from the digital overlord.

Abstract:
Bottom-up tree series transducers (tst) over the semiring [Formula: see text] are implemented with the help of bottom-up weighted tree automata (wta) over an extension of [Formula: see text]. Therefore bottom-up [Formula: see text]-weighted tree automata ([Formula: see text]-wta) with [Formula: see text] a distributive Ω-algebra are introduced. A [Formula: see text]-wta is essentially a wta but uses as transition weight an operation symbol of the Ω-algebra [Formula: see text] instead of a semiring element. The given tst is implemented with the help of a [Formula: see text]-wta, essentially showing that [Formula: see text]-wta are a joint generalization of tst (using IO-substitution) and wta. Then a semiring and a wta are constructed such that the wta computes a formal representation of the semantics of the [Formula: see text]-wta. The applicability of the obtained presentation result is demonstrated by deriving a pumping lemma for deterministic finite [Formula: see text]-wta from a known pumping lemma for deterministic finite wta. Finally, it is observed that the known decidability results for emptiness cannot be applied to obtain decidability of emptiness for finite [Formula: see text]-wta. Thus with help of a weaker version of the derived pumping lemma, decidability of the emptiness problem for finite [Formula: see text]-wta is shown under mild conditions on [Formula: see text].

Abstract:
Weakly recognizing morphisms from free semigroups onto finite semigroups are a classical way for defining the class of ω-regular languages, i.e., a set of infinite words is weakly recognizable by such a morphism if and only if it is accepted by some Büchi automaton. We study the descriptional complexity of various constructions and the computational complexity of various decision problems for weakly recognizing morphisms. The constructions we consider are the conversion from and to Büchi automata, the conversion into strongly recognizing morphisms, as well as complementation. We also show that the fixed membership problem is NC1-complete, the general membership problem is in L and that the inclusion, equivalence and universality problems are NL-complete. The emptiness problem is shown to be NL-complete if the input is given as a non-surjective morphism.

Abstract:
This paper deals with two topics concerning two-dimensional automata operating in parallel. We first investigate a relationship between the accepting powers of two-dimensional alternating finite automata (2-AFAs) and nondeterministic bottom-up pyramid cellular acceptors (NUPCAs), and show that Ω ( diameter × log diameter ) time is necessary for NUPCAs to simulate 2-AFAs. We then investigate space complexity of two-dimensional alternating Turing machines (2-ATMs) operating in small space, and show that if L (n) is a two-dimensionally space-constructible function such that lim n → ∞ L (n)/ loglog n > 1 and L (n) ≤ log n, and L′ (n) is a function satisfying L′ (n) =o (L(n)), then there exists a set accepted by some strongly L (n) space-bounded two-dimensional deterministic Turing machine, but not accepted by any weakly L′ (n) space-bounded 2-ATM, and thus there exists a rich space hierarchy for weakly S (n) space-bounded 2-ATMs with loglog n ≤ S (n) ≤ log n.
