THE EQUALITY PROBLEM FOR RATIONAL SERIES WITH MULTIPLICITIES IN THE TROPICAL SEMIRING IS UNDECIDABLE
1994
International journal of algebra and computation
In particular, we solve also another open question (cf 16]) by showing that the equality problem for rational series over an alphabet with at least two letters and with multiplicities in the semiring N ...

What's Decidable about Weighted Automata?
[chapter]
2011
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Our results thus draw a sharper picture about the decidability of decision problems for weighted automata, in both the front of containment vs. universality and the front of the ∪ {∞} vs. the ¡ ∪ {∞} domains ...
¢ ≥0 ∪ {∞}, is PSPACE-complete. ...
In [11] , Krob proved that the universality problem for rational series is undecidable for the tropical semiring with domain ¤ ∪ {∞}, and that this implies undecidability of the containment problem for ...

Some consequences of a Fatou property of the tropical semiring
1994
Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra
This property allows us to give partial decidability results for the equality problem for rational series with multiplicities in the tropical semiring. ...
We show that the equatorial semiring 2min = (Z u { + co}, mitt, + ) is a Fatou extension of the tropical semiring M = (N u { + cm}, min, + ). ...
An important problem in the tropical semiring theory was to see if it is possible to decide whether two M-rational series are equal or not. ...

Sequential?
2006
Theoretical Computer Science
We review results on sequentiality in the cases of series of finite image, of series with multiplicity in fields, and of series with multiplicity in idempotent semirings. ...
This paper is a survey where we try to organise the known answers to the question whether a given finite automaton with multiplicity in a semiring K is equivalent to a sequential, or input deterministic ...
The comments of two careful referees were of great help in the writing of the second version. ...

Series which are both max-plus and min-plus rational are unambiguous
2005
RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications
The decidability of equality was known to hold in both families with different proofs, so the above unifies the picture. ...
We show that two families of such series are actually the same: the unambiguous rational series on the one hand, and the max-plus and min-plus rational series on the other hand. ...
The equality problem is already undecidable in max and for two letters alphabet [9] , but it is decidable for finitely ambiguous automata over Ê max [6, 17] . ...

Axiomatizing Tropical Semirings
[chapter]
2001
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
It is shown that none of the exotic semirings commonly considered in the literature has a finite basis for its equations, and that similar results hold for the commutative idempotent weak semirings that ...
Two prime examples of such structures are the (max, +) semiring and the tropical semiring. ...

Max-plus algebra in the history of discrete event systems

Annual Reviews in Control
This paper is a survey of the history of max-plus algebra and its role in the field of discrete event systems during the last three decades. ...
It is based on the perspective of the authors but it covers a large variety of topics, where max-plus algebra plays a key role. ...
In particular, it has been shown in Krob (1992) that equalities and inequalities of rational max-plus formal power series are undecidable. ...

We show that the semirings N rat * of rational power series with coefficients in the semiring N of natural numbers are the free partial iteration semirings. ...
Moreover, we characterize the semirings N rat ∞ * as the free semirings in the variety of iteration semirings defined by three additional simple identities, where N ∞ is the completion of N obtained by ...
