Descriptional Complexity of Bounded Regular Languages
[chapter]
2016
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Conclusions In this paper, we have studied the descriptional complexity of (strongly) bounded regular languages. ...
Again, the structure of (strongly) boundedness allows to reduce the descriptional complexity compared with the general case. ...

Lecture Notes in Computer Science
It turns out that in most cases exactly the same tight bounds as for general regular languages are reached. ...
We investigate the nondeterministic state complexity of several operations on finite automata accepting star-free languages. ...
More than a decade ago the operation problem for regular languages represented by deterministic finite automata (DFAs) as studied in [32, 33] renewed the interest in descriptional complexity issues of ...

Descriptional complexity issues for deterministic biautomata were addressed in [3] . ...
We focus on the descriptional complexity of nondeterministic biautomata, which are defined as follows: a nondeterministic biautomaton is a sixtuple A = (Q, Σ, ·, •, I, F ), where Q is a finite set of states ...

On Measuring Non-Recursive Trade-Offs
2009
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science
We also identify criteria which, in the spirit of abstract language theory, allow us to deduce non-recursive tradeoffs from effective closure properties of language families on the one hand, and differences ...
We investigate the phenomenon of non-recursive trade-offs between descriptional systems in an abstract fashion. ...
We first establish some notation for descriptional complexity. In order to be general, we formalize the intuitive notion of a representation or description of a family of languages. ...

We study the descriptional complexity of regular languages that are definable by deterministic regular expressions. ...
Then we give an overview of the closure properties of these languages under various language-theoretic operations and we study the descriptional complexity of applying these operations. ...
Descriptional Complexity of Operations on DRE-Definable Languages We are now ready to apply previously obtained results to prove lower bounds on the descriptional complexity of operations on DREs. ...

A Survey on Operational State Complexity
[article]
2015
arXiv
pre-print
Descriptional complexity is the study of the conciseness of the various models representing formal languages. ...
In this survey, we review the state complexities of individual regularity preserving language operations on regular and some subregular languages. ...
State complexity is a type of descriptional complexity based on the finite machine model, and, in the domain of regular languages, it is related to the basic question of how to measure the size of a finite ...

[chapter]
2013
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The descriptional complexity of unary regular languages has been studied in many ways. ...
Introduction One of the main topics of descriptional complexity is the question of how the size of the description of a formal language varies when being described by different formalisms. ...

On the descriptional power of heads, counters, and pebbles
2005
Theoretical Computer Science
We investigate the descriptional complexity of deterministic two-way k-head finite automata (k-DHA). ...
It is shown that between non-deterministic pushdown automata and any k-DHA, k 2, there are savings in the size of description which cannot be bounded by any recursive function. ...
In particular, it is studied whether there exist upper bounds for the increase in complexity when changing from a minimal description of a language by non-deterministic pushdown automata to an equivalent ...

Transition Complexity of Incomplete DFAs
2010
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science
In this paper, we consider the transition complexity of regular languages based on the incomplete deterministic finite automata. A number of results on Boolean operations have been obtained. ...
However, for intersection, the transition complexity result is similar to that of state complexity. ...
Acknowledgement We would like to thank the anonymous referees of DCFS2010 for their careful reading and valuable suggestions. ...

Theoretical Computer Science
Moreover, we compare the state-complexity of regular languages with respect to their description by deterministic finite automata and several types of SBTA. ...
First we provide various criteria to determine lower bounds on the state-complexity of an SBTA-language L, that is bounds on the minimum number of states for an SBTA to accept L, and we show the existence ...
