In this paper, we propose the concept of an $\Omega$-Rota-Baxter system, which is a generalization of a Rota-Baxter system and an $\Omega$-Rota-Baxter algebra of weight zero. In the framework of operated algebras, we obtain a linear basis…

Finite-turn pushdown automata (PDA) are investigated concerning their descriptional complexity. It is known that they accept exactly the class of ultralinear context-free languages. Furthermore, the increase in size when converting…

Weighted automata are non-deterministic automata where the transitions are equipped with weights. They can model quantitative aspects of systems like costs or energy consumption. The value of a run can be computed, for example, as the…

This set of notes re-proves known results on weighted automata (over a field, also known as multiplicity automata). The text offers a unified view on theorems and proofs that have appeared in the literature over decades and were written in…

The theory of finite automata concerns itself with words in a free monoid together with concatenation and without further structure. There are, however, important applications which use alphabets which are structured in some sense. We…

We prove a Chomsky-Sch\"utzenberger representation theorem for multiple context-free languages weighted over complete commutative strong bimonoids.

Quantum finite automata (QFAs) have been extensively studied in the literature. In this paper, we define and systematically study quantum B\"uchi automata (QBAs) over infinite words to model the long-term behavior of quantum systems, which…

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 introduce higher-dimensional automata for infinite interval ipomsets ($\omega$-HDAs). We define key concepts from different points of view, inspired from their finite counterparts. Then we explore languages recognized by $\omega$-HDAs…

We use erasers-like basic operations on words to construct a set that is both Borel and above Delta^0_omega, built as a set V^\omega where V is a language of finite words accepted by a pushdown automaton. In particular, this gives a first…

We develop and explore the idea of recognition of languages (in the general sense of subsets of topological algebras) as preimages of clopen sets under continuous homomorphisms into Stone topological algebras. We obtain an Eilenberg…

We consider weighted automata over words and over trees where the weight algebras are strong bimonoids, i.e., semirings which may lack distributivity. It is well known that, for each such weighted automaton, its run semantics and its…

We investigate commutative images of languages recognised by register automata and grammars. Semi-linear and rational sets can be naturally extended to this setting by allowing for orbit-finite unions instead of only finite ones. We prove…

We extend the characterization of context-free groups of Muller and Schupp in two ways. We first show that for a quasi-transitive inverse graph $\Gamma$, being quasi-isometric to a tree, or context-free (finitely many end-cones types), or…

Engelfriet and Vereijken have shown that linear graph grammars based on hyperedge replacement generate graph languages that can be considered as interpretations of regular string languages over typed symbols. In this paper we show that…

Whether language models (LMs) have inductive biases that favor typologically frequent grammatical properties over rare, implausible ones has been investigated, typically using artificial languages (ALs) (White and Cotterell, 2021;…

In this thesis we use quasiorders on words to offer a new perspective on two well-studied problems from Formal Language Theory: deciding language inclusion and manipulating the finite automata representations of regular languages. First, we…

In a previous work ("Abstract Data Type Systems", TCS 173(2), 1997), the last two authors presented a combined language made of a (strongly normalizing) algebraic rewrite system and a typed lambda-calculus enriched by pattern-matching…

B\"uchi's theorem states that $\omega$-regular languages are characterized as languages of the form $\bigcup_i U_i V_i^\omega$, where $U_i$ and $V_i$ are regular languages. Parikh automata are automata on finite words whose transitions are…

The notion of comparison between system runs is fundamental in formal verification. This concept is implicitly present in the verification of qualitative systems, and is more pronounced in the verification of quantitative systems. In this…
