1-way quantum finite automata are deterministic and reversible in nature, which greatly reduces its accepting property. In fact the set of languages accepted by 1-way quantum finite automata is a proper subset of regular languages. In this…

Watson-Crick (WK) finite automata are working on a Watson-Crick tape, that is, on a DNA molecule. A double stranded DNA molecule contains two strands, each having a 5' and a 3' end, and these two strands together form the molecule with the…

Watson-Crick (WK) finite automata work on a Watson-Crick tape representing a DNA molecule. They have two reading heads. In 5'->3' WK automata, the heads move and read the input in opposite physical directions. In this paper, we consider…

In this work, we explore the concept of Watson-Crick conjugates, also known as $\theta$-conjugates (where $\theta$ is an antimorphic involution), of words and languages. This concept extends the classical idea of conjugates by incorporating…
