The proof reduces to the HDT0L sequence equivalence problem, which is known to be decidable. ...
Copyless streaming string transducers (copyless SST) have been introduced by R. Alur and P. Cerny in 2010 as a one-way deterministic automata model to define transformations of finite strings. ...
In the rest of this section, we therefore focus on the diagonal problem for non-deterministic biSST, and show its decidability by reduction to the HDT0L equivalence problem. ...
