A decidability proof for bisimulation equivalence of first-order grammars is given. It is an alternative proof for a result by S\'enizergues (1998, 2005) that subsumes his affirmative solution of the famous decidability question for…

A decidability proof for bisimulation equivalence of first-order grammars (finite sets of labelled rules for rewriting roots of first-order terms) is presented. The equivalence generalizes the DPDA (deterministic pushdown automata)…

Bisimulation equivalence (or bisimilarity) of first-order grammars is decidable, as follows from the decidability result by Senizergues (1998, 2005) that has been given in an equivalent framework of equational graphs with finite out-degree,…

The main aim of the paper is to give a short self-contained proof of the decidability of language equivalence for deterministic pushdown automata, which is the famous problem solved by G. Senizergues, for which C. Stirling has derived a…

Broadbent and G\"oller (FSTTCS 2012) proved the undecidability of bisimulation equivalence for processes generated by epsilon-free second-order pushdown automata. We add a few remarks concerning the used proof technique, called Defender's…

Checking whether two pushdown automata with restricted silent actions are weakly bisimilar was shown decidable by S\'enizergues (1998, 2005). We provide the first known complexity upper bound for this famous problem, in the equivalent…

There are many types of automata and grammar models that have been studied in the literature, and for these models, it is common to determine whether certain problems are decidable. One problem that has been difficult to answer throughout…

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…

We study (bi)simulation-like preorder/equivalence checking on the class of visibly pushdown automata and its natural subclasses visibly BPA (Basic Process Algebra) and visibly one-counter automata. We describe generic methods for proving…

The question if a deterministic finite automaton admits a software reset in the form of a so-called synchronizing word can be answered in polynomial time. In this paper, we extend this algorithmic question to deterministic automata beyond…

The article surveys some decidability results for DPDAs on infinite words (omega-DPDA). We summarize some recent results on the decidability of the regularity and the equivalence problem for the class of weak omega-DPDAs. Furthermore, we…

A non-deterministic recursion scheme recognizes a language of finite trees. This very expressive model can simulate, among others, higher-order pushdown automata with collapse. We show decidability of the diagonal problem for schemes. This…

The simulation of deterministic pushdown automata defined over a one-letter alphabet by finite state automata is investigated from a descriptional complexity point of view. We show that each unary deterministic pushdown automaton of size s…

Higher-order processes with parameterization are capable of abstraction and application (migrated from the lambda-calculus), and thus are computationally more expressive. For the minimal higher-order concurrency, it is well-known that the…

Senizergues has proved that language equivalence is decidable for disjoint epsilon-deterministic PDA. Stirling has showed that strong bisimilarity is decidable for PDA. On the negative side Srba demonstrated that the weak bisimilarity is…

We consider decision problems for relations over finite and infinite words defined by finite automata. We prove that the equivalence problem for binary deterministic rational relations over infinite words is undecidable in contrast to the…

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…

We show the diagonal problem for higher-order pushdown automata (HOPDA), and hence the simultaneous unboundedness problem, is decidable. From recent work by Zetzsche this means that we can construct the downward closure of the set of words…

We study decidability of verification problems for timed automata extended with unbounded discrete data structures. More detailed, we extend timed automata with a pushdown stack. In this way, we obtain a strong model that may for instance…

We show that in case a pushdown system is bisimulation equivalent to a finite system, there is already a bisimulation equivalent finite system whose size is elementarily bounded in the description size of the pushdown system. As a…
