Scattered deletion and commutativity
1994
Theoretical Computer Science
This paper deals with the scattered deletion of a language by another language, i.e. with scattered residuals. We introduce the notion of the scattered syntactical monoid. ...
We investigate some properties of these families of languages related to the cardinality of the scattered syntactical monoid. ...
Moreover, b2 is a zero of the syntactic monoid and will be identified with 0 in the scattered syntactic monoid. ...

Level Two of the Quantifier Alternation Hierarchy over Infinite Words
