We prove that the isomorphism of scattered tree automatic linear orders as well as the existence of automorphisms of scattered word automatic linear orders are undecidable. For the existence of automatic automorphisms of word automatic…
We prove in this paper that the length of the Wadge hierarchy of omega context free languages is greater than the Cantor ordinal epsilon_omega, which is the omega-th fixed point of the ordinal exponentiation of base omega. The same result…
The notion of Wheeler languages is rooted in the Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT), one of the most central concepts in data compression and indexing. The BWT has been generalized to finite automata, the so-called Wheeler automata, by Gagie…
It is known that many networks modeling real-life complex systems are small-word (large local clustering and small diameter) and scale-free (power law of the degree distribution), and very often they are also hierarchical. Although most of…
We prove that $\omega$-languages of (non-deterministic) Petri nets and $\omega$-languages of (non-deterministic) Turing machines have the same topological complexity: the Borel and Wadge hierarchies of the class of $\omega$-languages of…
Tiling recognizable two-dimensional languages, also known as REC, generalize recognizable string languages to two dimensions and share with them several theoretical properties. Nevertheless REC is not closed under complementation and the…
We present the first polynomial time algorithm to learn nontrivial classes of languages of infinite trees. Specifically, our algorithm uses membership and equivalence queries to learn classes of $\omega$-tree languages derived from weak…
Recently data trees and data words have received considerable amount of attention in connection with XML reasoning and system verification. These are trees or words that, in addition to labels from a finite alphabet, carry data values from…
We address questions of logic and expressibility in the context of random rooted trees. Infiniteness of a rooted tree is not expressible as a first order sentence, but is expressible as an existential monadic second order sentence (EMSO).…
Consider a linear ordering equipped with a finite sequence of monadic predicates. If the ordering contains an interval of order type \omega or -\omega, and the monadic second-order theory of the combined structure is decidable, there exists…
The ordered structures of natural, integer, rational and real numbers are studied here. It is known that the theories of these numbers in the language of order are decidable and finitely axiomatizable. Also, their theories in the language…
We consider a temporal logic EF+F^-1 for unranked, unordered finite trees. The logic has two operators: EF\phi, which says "in some proper descendant \phi holds", and F^-1\phi, which says "in some proper ancestor \phi holds". We present an…
Regular nested word languages (a.k.a. visibly pushdown languages) strictly extend regular word languages, while preserving their main closure and decidability properties. Previous works have shown that considering languages of 2-nested…
The HOM problem, which asks whether the image of a regular tree language under a given tree homomorphism is again regular, is known to be decidable [Godoy & Gim\'enez: The HOM problem is decidable. JACM 60(4), 2013]. However, the problem…
We show that the Hrushovski-\fraisse limit of certain classes of trees lead to strictly superstable theories of various U-ranks. In fact, for each $ \alpha\in\omega+1\backslash\{0\} $ we introduce a strictly superstable theory of U-rank $…
It is proved that the family of tree languages recognized by nondeterministic tree-walking automata is not closed under complementation, solving a problem raised by Boja\'nczyk and Colcombet ("Tree-walking automata do not recognize all…
We consider the synthesis of deterministic tree transducers from automaton definable specifications, given as binary relations, over finite trees. We consider the case of specifications that are deterministic top-down tree automatic,…
Tree transductions are binary relations of finite trees. For tree transductions defined by non-deterministic top-down tree transducers, inclusion, equivalence and synthesis problems are known to be undecidable. Adding origin semantics to…
A language is dense if the set of all infixes (or subwords) of the language is the set of all words. Here, it is shown that it is decidable whether the language accepted by a nondeterministic Turing machine with a one-way read-only input…
The $\omega$-power of a finitary language L over a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ is the language of infinite words over $\Sigma$ defined by L $\infty$ := {w 0 w 1. .. $\in$ $\Sigma$ $\omega$ | $\forall$i $\in$ $\omega$ w i $\in$ L}. The…
