There are languages A such that there is a Pushdown Automata (PDA) that recognizes A which is much smaller than any Deterministic Pushdown Automata (DPDA) that recognizes A. There are languages A such that there is a Linear Bounded Automata…

Visibly pushdown automata (VPA), introduced by Alur and Madhusuan in 2004, is a subclass of pushdown automata whose stack behavior is completely determined by the input symbol according to a fixed partition of the input alphabet. Since its…

1-way quantum finite state automata are 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. We introduce 2-tape…

Automata with monitor counters, where the transitions do not depend on counter values, and nested weighted automata are two expressive automata-theoretic frameworks for quantitative properties. For a well-studied and wide class of…

We study 1-way quantum finite automata (QFAs). First, we compare them with their classical counterparts. We show that, if an automaton is required to give the correct answer with a large probability (over 0.98), then the power of 1-way QFAs…

In this paper we present a systematic view of Quantum Cellular Automata (QCA), a mathematical formalism of quantum computation. First we give a general mathematical framework with which to study QCA models. Then we present four different…

Let $L_{>\lambda}(\mathcal{A})$ and $L_{\geq\lambda}(\mathcal{A})$ be the languages recognized by {\em measure many 1-way quantum finite automata (MM-QFA)} (or,{\em enhanced 1-way quantum finite automata(EQFA)}) $\mathcal{A}$ with strict…

Multi-letter {\it quantum finite automata} (QFAs) were a quantum variant of classical {\it one-way multi-head finite automata} (J. Hromkovi\v{c}, Acta Informatica 19 (1983) 377-384), and it has been shown that this new one-way QFAs…

A two-way deterministic finite state automaton with one counter (2D1CA) is a fundamental computational model that has been examined in many different aspects since sixties, but we know little about its power in the case of unary languages.…

We study the bisimilarity problem for probabilistic pushdown automata (pPDA) and subclasses thereof. Our definition of pPDA allows both probabilistic and non-deterministic branching, generalising the classical notion of pushdown automata…

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…

A quantitative word automaton (QWA) defines a function from infinite words to values. For example, every infinite run of a limit-average QWA A obtains a mean payoff, and every word w is assigned the maximal mean payoff obtained by…

"Quantitative languages are extension of boolean languages that assign to each word a real number. Mean-payoff automata are finite automata with numerical weights on transitions that assign to each infinite path the long-run average of the…

Contrary to the classical case, the relation between quantum programming languages and quantum Turing Machines (QTM) has not being fully investigated. In particular, there are features of QTMs that have not been exploited, a notable example…

There have been several non-axiomatic approaches taken to define Quantum Cellular Automata (QCA). Partitioned QCA (PQCA) are the most canonical of these non-axiomatic definitions. In this work we show that any QCA can be put into the form…
