We observe that the classical Cartesian product construction for the intersection of (languages of) nondeterministic finite automata (NFA) is non-optimal in the worst case, if the automata have many transitions. For a fixed alphabet, the…

Speculative data-parallel algorithms for language recognition have been widely experimented for various types of finite-state automata (FA), deterministic (DFA) and nondeterministic (NFA), often derived from regular expressions (RE). Such…
We implement a set of procedures for deciding whether or not a language given by its minimal automaton or by its syntactic semigroup is locally testable, right or left locally testable, threshold locally testable, strictly locally testable,…

Congruences for stochastic automata are defined, the correspondin factor automata are constructed and investigated for automata ove analytic spaces. We study the behavior under finite and infinite streams. Congruences consist of multiple…
In this paper we are dealing with the issue of finding possibly short synchronizing words in automata with weight assigned to each letter in the alphabet $\Sigma$. First we discuss some complexity problems, and then we present new…
A deterministic finite-state automaton (FSA) is an abstract sequential machine that reads the symbols comprising an input word one at a time. An FSA is symmetric if its output is independent of the order in which the input symbols are read,…
A complete deterministic finite (semi)automaton (DFA) with a set of states $Q$ is \emph{completely reachable} if every nonempty subset of $Q$ is the image of the action of some word applied to $Q$. The concept of completely reachable…
