Rational functions via recursive schemes

Logic in Computer Science 2023-02-08 v1 Formal Languages and Automata Theory

Abstract

We give a new characterization of the class of rational string functions from formal language theory using order-preserving interpretations with respect to a very weak monadic programming language. This refines the known characterization of rational functions by order-preserving MSO interpretations.
