Free profinite semigroups over some classes of semigroups locally in DG [PDF]
This paper is concerned with the structure of semigroups of implicit operations on various subpseudovarieties V of DReG intersection with LDG, where DReG and DG are the pseudovarieties of all semigroups S in which each regular D-class is, respectively, a

Eilenberg Theorems for Free [PDF]
Eilenberg-type correspondences, relating varieties of languages (e.g. of finite words, infinite words, or trees) to pseudovarieties of finite algebras, form the backbone of algebraic language theory.

Logic Meets Algebra: the Case of Regular Languages [PDF]
The study of finite automata and regular languages is a privileged meeting point of algebra and logic. Since the work of Buchi, regular languages have been classified according to their descriptive complexity, i.e.

The omega-inequality problem for concatenation hierarchies of star-free languages [PDF]
The problem considered in this paper is whether an inequality of omega-terms is valid in a given level of a concatenation hierarchy of star-free languages.

Equidivisible pseudovarieties of semigroups [PDF]
We give a complete characterization of pseudovarieties of semigroups whose finitely generated relatively free profinite semigroups are equidivisible. Besides the pseudovarieties of completely simple semigroups, they are precisely the pseudovarieties that

A Fibrational Approach to Automata Theory [PDF]
For predual categories C and D we establish isomorphisms between opfibrations representing local varieties of languages in C, local pseudovarieties of D-monoids, and finitely generated profinite D-monoids.

An effective characterization of the alternation hierarchy in two-variable logic [PDF]
We characterize the languages in the individual levels of the quantifier alternation hierarchy of first-order logic with two variables by identities. This implies decidability of the individual levels. More generally we show that the two-sided semidirect

Pointlike reducibility of pseudovarieties of the form V*D [PDF]
In this paper, we investigate the reducibility property of semidirect products of the form V *D relatively to (pointlike) systems of equations of the form x1 =...= xn, where D denotes the pseudovariety of definite semigroups.
