We study counting-regular languages -- these are languages $L$ for which there is a regular language $L'$ such that the number of strings of length $n$ in $L$ and $L'$ are the same for all $n$. We show that the languages accepted by…

Machine learning models with inputs in a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, when implemented on digital computers, generalize, and their generalization gap converges to $0$ at a rate of $c/N^{1/2}$ concerning the sample size $N$. However, the…

It is well-known that one-tape Turing machines working in linear time are no more powerful than finite automata, namely they recognize exactly the class of regular languages. We prove that it is not decidable if a one-tape machine works in…

We prove that for any $\varepsilon>0$, a non-deterministic Turing machine $\mathcal{T}$ with time complexity $T(n)$ can be emulated by an $S$-machine with time and space complexities at most $T(n)^{1+\varepsilon}$ and $T(n)$, respectively.…
