The syntactic monoid of hairpin-free languages
2007
Acta Informatica
We also give a complete characterization of the syntactic monoid of the language consisting of all hairpin-free words over a given alphabet and illustrate it with an example using the DNA alphabet. ...
This paper continues the theoretical study of hairpin-free languages. We study algebraic properties of hairpin-free words and hairpins. ...
These results give thus complete characterization of the syntactic monoid of the language of hairpin-free words over an alphabet. We also discuss the Green's relations for hairpin-free languages. ...

WATSON-CRICK BORDERED WORDS AND THEIR SYNTACTIC MONOID
2008
International Journal of Foundations of Computer Science
We also give a complete characterization of the syntactic monoid of the language consisting of all Watson-Crick bordered words over a given alphabet. ...
This paper studies a mathematical formalization of a particular case of hairpins, the Watson-Crick bordered words. ...
In [10] we showed that the elements of the syntactic monoid of the language of all hairpin-free words are idempotents and the monoid is commutative. ...

Language theoretical properties of hairpin formations

This result applies, in particular, to the class of first-order definable languages (which is the class of aperiodic or star-free languages) and it applies to the class of first-order definable languages ...
We study language theoretical properties of hairpin formations and our new results concern the hairpin completion H κ (L 1 , L 2 ) of two regular languages L 1 and L 2 and the iterated hairpin lengthening ...

A Categorical Compositional Distributional Modelling for the Language of Life
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
Since we can think of biological sequences as the "language of life", it is attempting to apply the DisCoCat model on the language of life to see if we can obtain new insights and a better understanding ...
The Categorical Compositional Distributional (DisCoCat) Model is a powerful mathematical model for composing the meaning of sentences in natural languages. ...
Coincidently, when the double helix structure of DNA was discovered in the 1950s, linguist Noam Chomsky also developed the revolutionary theory revealing the syntactic structure of natural languages [ ...

However, if the hairpin completion is still regular, then the hairpin completion and its underlying language have essentially the same growth and same topological entropy. ...

DNA Computing — Foundations and Implications
[chapter]
2012
Handbook of Natural Computing
The maximality problem of hairpin-free languages is stated as follows: can a given language L ⊆ Σ * , satisfying a certain property (e.g., to be a hairpin-free language), be still extended without loss ...
For hairpin-free languages it is relatively straightforward to solve the optimal negative design problem: to construct a set of hairpin-free DNA words of a given size, where the words can be chosen from ...

Algebraic dynamic programming for multiple context-free grammars
2016

We present theoretical foundations, and a practical implementation, that makes the method of Algebraic Dynamic Programming available for Multiple Context-Free Grammars. ...
This improves on the previous state of the art which required complex code based on hand-written dynamic programming recursions. ...

Formal language theory of hairpin formations
[article]
2011
We show that if the hairpin completion of an aperiodic (i.e., star-free) language is regular, then the hairpin completion is aperiodic, too. ...
As a by-product of our technique to prove the complexities, we obtain that the hairpin completion of a regular language is actually an unambiguous linear context-free language. ...
