Descriptional Complexity of Finite Automata -- Selected Highlights
The state complexity, respectively, nondeterministic state complexity of a regular language $L$ is the number of states of the minimal deterministic, respectively, of a minimal nondeterministic finite automaton for $L$.

The Origins of Computational Mechanics: A Brief Intellectual History and Several Clarifications [PDF]
The principle goal of computational mechanics is to define pattern and structure so that the organization of complex systems can be detected and quantified.

Kunz languages for numerical semigroups are context sensitive
There is a one-to-one and onto correspondence between the class of numerical semigroups of depth $n$, where $n$ is an integer, and a certain language over the alphabet $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ which call Kunz language of depth $n$.

Real-time Regular Expression Matching
This paper is devoted to finite state automata, regular expression matching, pattern recognition, and the exponential blow-up problem, which is the growing complexity of automata exponentially depending on regular expression length. This paper presents a

An approach to computing downward closures
The downward closure of a word language is the set of all (not necessarily contiguous) subwords of its members. It is well-known that the downward closure of any language is regular.

Weighted languages recognizable by weighted tree automata [PDF]
Yields of recognizable weighted tree languages, yields of local weighted tree languages, and weighted context-free languages are related. It is shown that the following five classes of weighted languages are the same: (i) the class of weighted languages ...

Colored operads, series on colored operads, and combinatorial generating systems [PDF]
We introduce bud generating systems, which are used for combinatorial generation. They specify sets of various kinds of combinatorial objects, called languages.

String Diagrammatic Trace Theory
We extend the theory of formal languages in monoidal categories to the multi-sorted, symmetric case, and show how this theory permits a graphical treatment of topics in concurrency.

Classical and quantum Merlin-Arthur automata
We introduce Merlin-Arthur (MA) automata as Merlin provides a single certificate and it is scanned by Arthur before reading the input. We define Merlin-Arthur deterministic, probabilistic, and quantum finite state automata (resp., MA-DFAs, MA-PFAs, MA ...

Alternating weak automata from universal trees [PDF]
An improved translation from alternating parity automata on infinite words to alternating weak automata is given. The blow-up of the number of states is related to the size of the smallest universal ordered trees and hence it is quasi-polynomial, and it ...
