We study the trapezoidal rule for periodic functions on uniform grids and show that the quadrature error exhibits a rich deterministic structure, beyond traditional asymptotic or statistical interpretations. Focusing on the prototype…
Quantum finite automata derive their strength by exploiting interference in complex valued probability amplitudes. Of particular interest is the 2-way model of Ambainis and Watrous that has both quantum and classical states (2QCFA) [A.…
In recent work, Kobayashi observed that the acceptance by an alternating tree automaton A of an infinite tree T generated by a higher-order recursion scheme G may be formulated as the typability of the recursion scheme G in an appropriate…
A general method for constructing a new class of topological Ramsey spaces is presented. Members of such spaces are infinite sequences of products of Fra\"iss\'e classes of finite relational structures satisfying the Ramsey property. The…
We introduce a recursive theory that completely axiomatizes the structure $\langle \mathbb{Z},<, +,f,0\rangle$ where $f$ is the function that maps each $x$ to the integer part of $\varphi x $, with $\varphi$ the golden ratio. We prove that…
We introduce a new geometric tool for analyzing groups of finite automata. To each finite automaton we associate a square complex. The square complex is covered by a product of two trees iff the automaton is bi-reversible. Using this method…
Structural recursion is a common technique used by programmers in modern languages and is taught to introductory computer science students. But what about its dual, structural corecursion? Structural corecursion is an elegant technique,…
We exhibit the construction of a deterministic automaton that, given k > 0, recognizes the (regular) language of k-differentiable words. Our approach follows a scheme of Crochemore et al. based on minimal forbidden words. We extend this…
It is proved that the $q$-Araki-Woods factor $\Gamma_q(\sH_\R, U)''$ associated with a strongly continuous orthogonal representation $U:\R\to \cO(\sH_\R)$ is strongly solid for all $q\in (-1,1)$ if the representation $U$ is almost periodic.…
BSS RAMs were introduced to provide a mathematical framework for characterizing algorithms over first-order structures. Non-deterministic BSS RAMs help to model different non-deterministic approaches. Here, we deal with different types of…
We present a first result towards the use of entailment in- side relational dual tableau-based decision procedures. To this end, we introduce a fragment of RL(1) which admits a restricted form of composition, (R ; S) or (R ; 1), where the…
Symbolic Finite Automata and Register Automata are two orthogonal extensions of finite automata motivated by real-world problems where data may have unbounded domains. These automata address a demand for a model over large or infinite…
In this paper we examine the natural interpretation of a ramified type hierarchy into Martin-L\"of type theory with an infinite sequence of universes. It is shown that under this predicative interpretation some useful special cases of…
Unambiguous non-deterministic finite automata have intermediate expressive power and succinctness between deterministic and non-deterministic automata. It has been conjectured that every unambiguous non-deterministic one-way finite…
The determinization of a nondeterministic B\"uchi automaton (NBA) is a fundamental construction of automata theory, with applications to probabilistic verification and reactive synthesis. The standard determinization constructions, such as…
We introduce a certain restriction of weighted automata over the rationals, called image-binary automata. We show that such automata accept the regular languages, can be exponentially more succinct than corresponding NFAs, and allow for…
We show that each unitary representation of the N=2 superVirasoro algebra can be realized in terms of ``collective excitations'' over a filled Dirac sea of fermionic operators satisfying a generalized exclusion principle. These are…
In this article we define the semigroup associated to a substitution. We use it to construct a minimal automaton which generates a substitution sequence u in reverse reading. We show, in the case where the substitution has a coincidence,…
Affine automata provide a finite-state computational model that preserves the linear-algebraic structure of quantum computation while operating entirely over the reals. Recent work has shown that affine automata can far surpass classical…
We extend the functorial approach to automata by Colcombet and Petri\c{s}an [arXiv:1712.07121] from the category of sets to any elementary topos with a natural number object and establish general Myhill-Nerode theorems in our setting. As a…
