This note introduces a generalization to the setting of infinite-time computation of the busy beaver problem from classical computability theory, and proves some results concerning the growth rate of an associated function. In our view,…
Generalised Probabilistic Theories (GPTs) provide a unifying framework encompassing classical theories, quantum theories, as well as hypothetical alternatives. We investigate the problem of extending a system with a finite set of…
In this note we give a simple unifying proof of the undecidability of several diagrammatic properties of term rewriting systems that include: local confluence, strong confluence, diamond property, subcommutative property, and the existence…
This paper deals with the controllability for a class of non-autonomous neutral differential equations of fractional order with infinite delay in an abstract space. The semi-group theory of bounded linear operators, fractional calculus, and…
We present a generalization of standard Turing machines based on allowing unusual tapes. We present a set of reasonable constraints on tape geometry and classify all tapes conforming to these constraints. Surprisingly, this generalization…
We introduce the notion of a combinatorial inverse system in non-commutative variables. We present two important examples, some conjectures and results. These conjectures and results were suggested and supported by computer investigations.
We consider probabilistic automata on infinite words with acceptance defined by safety, reachability, B\"uchi, coB\"uchi, and limit-average conditions. We consider quantitative and qualitative decision problems. We present extensions and…
Students find their first course in Formal Languages and Automata Theory challenging. In addition to the development of formal arguments, most students struggle to understand nondeterministic computation models. In part, the struggle stems…
Nonuniform Deterministic Finite Automata (NUDFA) over monoids were invented by Barrington to study boundaries of nonuniform constant-memory computation. Later, results on these automata helped to indentify interesting classes of groups for…
Discounting the influence of future events is a key paradigm in economics and it is widely used in computer-science models, such as games, Markov decision processes (MDPs), reinforcement learning, and automata. While a single game or MDP…
It is well known that in Zermelo-Fraenkel (ZF) set theory any finite set is decidable. In this paper we discuss an extension of ZF where this result is no longer valid. Such an extension is quasi-set theory and it has its origin on problems…
We classify essential algebras whose irredundant non-refinable covers consist of primal algebras. The proof is obtained by constructing one to one correspondence between such algebras and partial orders on finite sets. Further, we prove…
This paper studies trace-based equivalences for systems combining nondeterministic and probabilistic choices. We show how trace semantics for such processes can be recovered by instantiating a coalgebraic construction known as the…
We study three levels in a hierarchy of nondeterminism: A nondeterministic automaton $\mathcal{A}$ is determinizable by pruning (DBP) if we can obtain a deterministic automaton equivalent to $\mathcal{A}$ by removing some of its…
For a class of random partitions of an infinite set a de Finetti-type representation is derived, and in one special case a central limit theorem for the number of blocks is shown.
This paper presents a deep learning based model predictive control algorithm for control affine nonlinear discrete time systems with matched and bounded state-dependent uncertainties of unknown structure. Since the structure of…
This work deals with the definability problem by quantifier-free first-order formulas over a finite algebraic structure. We show the problem to be coNP-complete and present two decision algorithms based on a semantical characterization of…
We prove that the word problem of a finitely generated group $G$ is in NP (solvable in polynomial time by a non-deterministic Turing machine) if and only if this group is a subgroup of a finitely presented group $H$ with polynomial…
Extending results of Schindler [math.LO/0106087] and Hamkins and Welch [math.LO/0212046], we establish in the context of infinite time Turing machines that P is properly contained in NP intersect coNP. Furthermore, NP intersect coNP is…
The main objective of this paper is the following two results. (1) There exists a computable bi-orderable group that does not have a computable bi-ordering; (2) There exists a bi-orderable, two-generated recursively presented solvable group…
