Regular Cost Functions, Part I: Logic and Algebra over Words [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The theory of regular cost functions is a quantitative extension to the classical notion of regularity. A cost function associates to each input a non-negative integer value (or infinity), as opposed to languages which only associate to each input the ...

Groups whose word problems are not semilinear [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Suppose that G is a finitely generated group and W is the formal language of words defining the identity in G. We prove that if G is a nilpotent group, the fundamental group of a finite volume hyperbolic three-manifold, or a right-angled Artin group ...

Infinite Games with Uncertain Moves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
International audienceWe study infinite two-player games where one of the players is unsure about the set of moves available to the other player. In particular, the set of moves of the other player is a strict superset of what she assumes it to be.

On the Constructions of New Symmetric Ciphers Based on Nonbijective Multivariate Maps of Prescribed Degree

open access: yesSecurity and Communication Networks, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce stream ciphers with the nonbijective encryption function of multivariate nature constructed in terms of algebraic graph theory. More precisely, we describe the two main symmetric algorithms for creation of multivariate encryption transformations based on three families of bipartite graphs with partition ...

The Height of Piecewise-Testable Languages with Applications in Logical Complexity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The height of a piecewise-testable language L is the maximum length of the words needed to define L by excluding and requiring given subwords. The height of L is an important descriptive complexity measure that has not yet been investigated in a ...

Towards a Uniform Theory of Effectful State Machines

open access: yes, 2020
Using recent developments in coalgebraic and monad-based semantics, we present a uniform study of various notions of machines, e.g. finite state machines, multi-stack machines, Turing machines, valence automata, and weighted automata.

Automata for Unordered Trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
International audienceWe present a framework for defining automata for unordereddata trees that is parametrized by the way in which multisets of children nodes are described.

Tropical time series, iterated-sum signatures and quasisymmetric functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Driven by the need for principled extraction of features from time series, we introduce the iterated-sums signature over any commutative semiring. The case of the tropical semiring is a central, and our motivating, example, as it leads to features of ...
