Transition Complexity of Incomplete DFAs

Formal Languages and Automata Theory 2010-08-11 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the transition complexity of regular languages based on the incomplete deterministic finite automata. A number of results on Boolean operations have been obtained. It is shown that the transition complexity results for union and complementation are very different from the state complexity results for the same operations. However, for intersection, the transition complexity result is similar to that of state complexity.
