Descriptional Complexity of Pushdown Store Languages
[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
It is well known that the pushdown store language P (M ) of a pushdown automaton (PDA) M -i.e., the language consisting of words occurring on the pushdown along accepting computations of M -is a regular ...

Finally, in Section 5, we apply our results on the descriptional complexity of pushdown store languages to the analysis of the hardness of some decision problems related to PDA. ...

Removing Nondeterminism in Constant Height Pushdown Automata
[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We study the descriptional cost of removing nondeterminism in constant height pushdown automata -i.e., pushdown automata with a built-in constant limit on the height of the pushdown. ...
As a direct consequence, we get that eliminating nondeterminism in classical finite state automata is single-exponential even with the help of a constant height pushdown store. ...
Acknowledgment The authors wish to thank the anonymous referee and the editors of Information and Computation for invaluable help. ...

Descriptional complexity of unambiguous input-driven pushdown automata
2015
Theoretical Computer Science
In addition, the methods developed in this paper are used to demonstrate that the descriptional complexity of complementation for nondeterministic IDPDAs is 2 Θ(n 2 ) , and that the descriptional complexity ...
of homomorphisms for deterministic IDPDAs is 2 Θ(n 2 ) as well. ...
Since the languages recognized by input-driven pushdown automata share many desirable properties of the regular languages, understanding the descriptional complexity trade-offs between the nondeterministic ...

Finite turns and the regular closure of linear context-free languages
2007
Discrete Applied Mathematics
For example, automata with an unbounded number of turns that have to empty their pushdown store up to the initial symbol in order to start a new turn are characterized by the regular closure of the linear ...
For both a bounded and an unbounded number of turns, requiring to empty the pushdown store is a strictly stronger condition than requiring to re-enter the initial state. ...
This avoids that during the simulation the pushdown store gets empty, when M empties its pushdown store without accepting. It is easy to see that M accepts T (M) with empty pushdown store. ...

A Direct Construction of Finite State Automata for Pushdown Store Languages

2013
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Finally, we give a characterization of the class of pushdown store languages. ...
We provide a new construction of a nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA) accepting the pushdown store language of a given pushdown automaton (PDA). ...
Given a PDA M , its pushdown store language P (M ) consists of all words occurring on the pushdown store along accepting computation paths of M . ...

Some modifications of auxiliary pushdown automata
1991
RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We thank Birgit Jenner and Bernd Kirsig for pointing out to us and discussing with us the notions of "begin" and "end" nondeterminism. ...
However, with the définitions given in this paper, restrictions in access to input and to pushdown store are clearly separated, and consequently, we find a more uniform spectrum of complexity classes and ...
DISCUSSION In order to study the effect of adding both nondeterminism and an unlimited pushdown store to space bounded Turing machines, we have defined intermediate models in which pushdown store and/or ...

One instantiation of this framework marks the first polyvariant pushdown analysis of higher-order programs; another marks the first polynomial-time analysis. ...
To this young body of work on context-free analysis of higher-order programs, we contribute a pushdown control-flow analysis framework, which we derive as an abstract interpretation of a CESK machine with ...

Furthermore, it is shown that all EOL languages are log-tape reducible to context-free languages. Hence, EOL ~ DSPACE (log n) if and only if every context-free language is in DSPACE (log n). ...
