On A. V. Anisimov's problem for finding a polynomial algorithm checking inclusion of context-free languages in group languages
Abstract
The work investigates the problem of whether a context-free language is a subset of a group language. A.~V. Anisimov has shown that the problem of determining the unambiguity of finite automata is a special case of this problem. Then the question of finding polynomial algorithm verifying the inclusion of context-free languages in group languages naturally arises. The article focuses on this open problem. For the purpose, the paper describes an unconventional method of description of context-free languages, namely a representation with the help of a finite digraph whose arcs are labelled with a specially defined monoid . Also, we define a semiring whose elements are the set of all subsets of and with operations - product and union of the elements of . The described algorithm executes no more than operations in .
