Omega-powers of finitary languages are omega languages in the form V^omega, where V is a finitary language over a finite alphabet X. Since the set of infinite words over X can be equipped with the usual Cantor topology, the question of the…
Omega-powers of finitary languages are languages of infinite words (omega-languages) in the form V^omega, where V is a finitary language over a finite alphabet X. They appear very naturally in the characterizaton of regular or context-free…
This paper is a continuation of the study of topological properties of omega context free languages (omega-CFL). We proved before that the class of omega-CFL exhausts the hierarchy of Borel sets of finite rank, and that there exist some…
We show that, from a topological point of view, considering the Borel and the Wadge hierarchies, 1-counter B\"uchi automata have the same accepting power than Turing machines equipped with a B\"uchi acceptance condition. In particular, for…
We survey recent results on the topological complexity of context-free omega-languages which form the second level of the Chomsky hierarchy of languages of infinite words. In particular, we consider the Borel hierarchy and the Wadge…
We give in this paper additional answers to questions of Lescow and Thomas [Logical Specifications of Infinite Computations, In:"A Decade of Concurrency", Springer LNCS 803 (1994), 583-621], proving new topological properties of omega…
We prove in this paper that the length of the Wadge hierarchy of omega context free languages is greater than the Cantor ordinal epsilon_omega, which is the omega-th fixed point of the ordinal exponentiation of base omega. The same result…
The $\omega$-power of a finitary language L over a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ is the language of infinite words over $\Sigma$ defined by L $\infty$ := {w 0 w 1. .. $\in$ $\Sigma$ $\omega$ | $\forall$i $\in$ $\omega$ w i $\in$ L}. The…
We study the links between the topological complexity of an omega context free language and its degree of ambiguity. In particular, using known facts from classical descriptive set theory, we prove that non Borel omega context free…
This paper investigates acceptance conditions for finite automata recognizing omega-regular languages. As a first result, we show that, under any acceptance condition that can be defined in the MSO logic, a finite automaton can recognize at…
We study the sets of the infinite sentences constructible with a dictionary over a finite alphabet, from the viewpoint of descriptive set theory. Among other things, this gives some true co-analytic sets. The case where the dictionary is…
We prove that, for any natural number n $\ge$ 1, we can find a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ and a finitary language L over $\Sigma$ accepted by a one-counter automaton, such that the $\omega$-power L $\infty$ := {w 0 w 1. .. $\in$ $\Sigma$…
A dictionary is a set of finite words over some finite alphabet X. The omega-power of a dictionary V is the set of infinite words obtained by infinite concatenation of words in V. Lecomte studied in [Omega-powers and descriptive set theory,…
We prove that, for each non null countable ordinal alpha, there exist some Sigma^0_alpha-complete omega-powers, and some Pi^0_alpha-complete omega-powers, extending previous works on the topological complexity of omega-powers. We prove…
Let S be a complete star-omega semiring and Sigma be an alphabet. For a weighted omega-pushdown automaton P with stateset 1...n, n greater or equal to 1, we show that there exists a mixed algebraic system over a complete semiring-semimodule…
We consider context-free languages equipped with the lexicographic ordering. We show that when the lexicographic ordering of a context-free language is scattered, then its Hausdorff rank is less than $\omega^\omega$. As a corollary of this…
We define a class of languages of infinite words over infinite alphabets, and the corresponding automata. The automata used for recognition are a generalisation of deterministic Muller automata to the setting of nominal sets. Remarkably,…
Some decidable winning conditions of arbitrarily high finite Borel complexity for games on finite graphs or on pushdown graphs have been recently presented by O. Serre in [ Games with Winning Conditions of High Borel Complexity, in the…
An \omega-grammar is a formal grammar used to generate \omega-words (i.e. infinite length words), while an \omega-automaton is an automaton used to recognize \omega-words. This paper gives clean and uniform definitions for \omega-grammars…
In weighted automata theory, many classical results on formal languages have been extended into a quantitative setting. Here, we investigate weighted context-free languages of infinite words, a generalization of $\omega$-context-free…
