Defining families of trees with E0L grammars
1991
Discrete Applied Mathematics
Wood, Defining families of trees with EOL grammars, Discrete Applied Mathematics 32 (1991) 195-209. We consider EOL grammars as tree-generating mechanisms. ...
We characterize EOL grammars with two nonterminals that generate exactly the sets of l-2 and 2-3 trees. ...
Introduction We initiate the study of "context-free" rewriting systems that define well-known families of trees such as l-2 trees, 2-3 trees, brother trees, etc. ...

How to get rid of pseudoterminals
1980
Information and Control
We investigate the role of pseudoterminals of E0L forms. This leads us to the definition of m-interpretation which avoids the introduction of additional pseudoterminals via interpretation. ...
Finally, we consider the validity of some basic results on E0L forms under minterpretation. ...
However, when working with E0L families, it turns out that terminal productions indeed lead to additional language families as shown in Maureretal. (1977) . ...

Two collapsing hierarchies of subregularly tree controlled languages
2009
Theoretical Computer Science
Tree controlled grammars are context-free grammars where the associated language only contains those terminal words which have a derivation where the word of any level of the corresponding derivation tree ...
We show that the corresponding hierarchy of tree controlled languages collapses already at the second level. ...
To construct a tree-controlled grammar with a control language with a fixed number of states, we modify the grammar as follows. ...

The computational power of (tissue) P systems using non-cooperative rules turns out to be equivalent to that of (E)0L systems. ...

Complexity of E0L structural equivalence
1995
RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications
The set of z-syntax trees, z G {s, p} of the grammar G is defined by where S f is the tree with a single node labeled by the initial nonterminal S. ...
It is well known that context-free syntax trees can be recognized by finite tree automatons. Conversely, the family of sets of syntax trees clearly does not contain all recognizable tree languages. ...

Decidability of structural equivalence of E0L grammars
1991
Theoretical Computer Science
The set of syntax trees S(G) of an EOL grammar G = ( V, 2, S, P) is defined inductively as follows. If X E Vu 2, then the tree -with one node labeled by X belongs to S(G). ...
Our main result is that structural equivalence of EOL grammars is decidable. To this end we define a tree automaton model that is able to recognize the structures of syntax trees of an EOL grammar. ...

In 2018, it was shown that all finitely generated virtually Abelian groups have multiple context-free word problems, and it is still an open problem as to where to precisely place the word problems of ...

Applications of scheduling theory to formal language theory
1985
Theoretical Computer Science
We approach the study of these families by investigating their computational complexity. ...
Context-free grammars are extended to the case where it is required that at each derivation step, a fixed number k of nonterminals must be rewritten in parallel. ...
There may, however, be a family of possible derivation forests for a given word, as defined by the grammar. ...

On ambiguity in E0L systems
1980
Theoretical Computer Science
It is demonstrated that the degree of ambiguity of a context free language K in the class of EOL systems is not larger than the degree of ambiguity of K in the class of context free grammars. ...
A language K is said to have the negative prefix property if no word K catenated with a nonempty prefix of a word from K+ yields an element of K. ...

Structured OL-systems
[chapter]
1974
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The systems, also called developmental systems, were introduced in connection with a theory proposed to model the development of filamentous organisms. ...
The stages of development are represented by strings of symbols correspondings to states of individual cells of an organism. The developmental instructions are modelled by grammar-like productions. ...
A derivation in a context-free grammar can be represented as a derivation-tree which describes the structure of a string with respect to this derivation. ...

Nonterminal complexity of tree controlled grammars

Synchronized E0L forms
1980
Theoretical Computer Science
Turning to the syntax analysis of synchro-EOL form families, we are lead into the study of ambiguity in EOL systems. ...
These results are also in contrast with EOL forms, where even short {S, c})-forms have only a restricted characterization with respect to completeness. ...
Similarly we can defined the notion of interpretation for two grammars G1 and G2, the family of grammars defined by 6, V?(G) and the family of languages defined by G, s(G).

On the synchronized derivation depth of context-free grammars
2009
Theoretical Computer Science
This measure differs from the earlier considered synchronization depth in that it counts the depth of the entire derivation tree. ...
We consider (non-)existence of trade-offs when using synchronized grammars as opposed to non-synchronized grammars and establish lower bounds for certain classes of linear context-free languages. ...
Now we define which derivation trees of the underlying context-free grammar are considered valid derivations of an SCF grammar. ...
