Automata over infinite alphabets have emerged as a convenient computational model for processing structures involving data, such as nonces in cryptographic protocols or data values in XML documents. We introduce active learning methods for…

Let $G$ be a group. A subset $D$ of $G$ is a determining set of $G$, if every automorphism of $G$ is uniquely determined by its action on $D$. The determining number of $G$, denoted by $\alpha(G)$, is the cardinality of a smallest…

Autostackability for finitely generated groups is defined via a topological property of the associated Cayley graph which can be encoded in a finite state automaton. Autostackable groups have solvable word problem and an effective inductive…

For a group $G$ and a set $A$, let $\text{End}(A^G)$ be the monoid of all cellular automata over $A^G$, and let $\text{Aut}(A^G)$ be its group of units. By establishing a characterisation of surjunctuve groups in terms of the monoid…

This paper explores a previously uncharted automaton group generated by a 5-state automaton $(\Pi, A)$ acts by self-similarity on the regular rooted tree $A^{*}$ over a 2-letter alphabet set $A$. Group $G$ has been subjected to several…

We study finitely generated groups whose word problems are accepted by counter automata. We show that a group has word problem accepted by a blind n-counter automaton in the sense of Greibach if and only if it is virtually free abelian of…

We extend the classical Stallings theory (describing subgroups of free groups as automata) to direct products of free and abelian groups: after introducing enriched automata (i.e., automata with extra abelian labels), we obtain an explicit…

A finite group of order divisible by 3 in which centralizers of 3-elements are 3-subgroups will be called a C{\theta}{\theta}-group. The prime graph (or Gruenberg-Kegel graph) of a finite group G is denoted by {\Gamma}(G) (or GK(G)) and its…

The theory of abstract argumentation frameworks (afs) has, in the main, focused on finite structures, though there are many significant contexts where argumentation can be regarded as a process involving infinite objects. To address 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,…

We implement GAP functions about groups with action on itself and investigate some basic properties of small groups with action on itself of order $<32$.

We study structural restrictions on biautomata such as, e.g., acyclicity, permutation-freeness, strongly permutation-freeness, and orderability, to mention a few. We compare the obtained language families with those induced by deterministic…

We construct the first example of a finitely generated group which has Serre's property (FA) (i.e., whenever it acts on a simplicial tree it fixes a vertex), but admits a fixed point-free action on an $\mathbb{R}$-tree with finite arc…

This is a collection of examples showing how the GAP system can be used to compute information about the probabilistic generation of finite almost simple groups. It includes all examples that were needed for the computational results in the…

We study three notions of directability of fuzzy automata akin to the D1-, D2- and D3-directability of nondeterministic automata. Thus an input word $w$ of a fuzzy automaton is D1-directing if a fixed single state is reachable by $w$ from…

It is well-known that the spacetime diagrams of some cellular automata have a fractal structure: for instance Pascal's triangle modulo 2 generates a Sierpinski triangle. It has been shown that such patterns can occur when the alphabet is…

We prove a Fife-like characterization of the infinite binary (7/3)-power-free words, by giving a finite automaton of 15 states that encodes all such words. As a consequence, we characterize all such words that are 2-automatic.

We prove various properties on the structure of groups whose power graph is chordal. Nilpotent groups with this property have been classified by Manna, Cameron and Mehatari [The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2021]. Here we classify…

The minimal number of inputs in the local function of a non-trivial cellular automaton is two. Such a function can be viewed as as a kind of binary operation. If this operation is associative, it forms, together with the set of states, a…

This paper shows how to construct explicitly an automaton that generates an arbitrary numerical semigroup.
