pre-print
They give a procedure performed on the minimal DFA, the BW-test, to decide whether a language is one-unambiguous. ...
We also give a procedure which enumerates, for a given language, the finite set of compact deterministic k-block automata. ...
The set of regular languages is exactly the set of languages that can be denoted by a regular expression. A regular expression is trim if it is ∅ or does not contain ∅. ...
