We consider weighted tree automata (wta) over strong bimonoids and their initial algebra semantics and their run semantics. There are wta for which these semantics are different; however, for bottom-up deterministic wta and for wta over…
Comprehensively searching for words in Sanskrit E-text is a non-trivial problem because words could change their forms in different contexts. One such context is sandhi or euphonic conjunctions, which cause a word to change owing to the…
Watson-Crick (WK) finite automata work on a Watson-Crick tape representing a DNA molecule. They have two reading heads. In 5'->3' WK automata, the heads move and read the input in opposite physical directions. In this paper, we consider…
The state complexity of basic operations on finite languages (considering complete DFAs) has been in studied the literature. In this paper we study the incomplete (deterministic) state and transition complexity on finite languages of…
We propose FC, a new logic on words that combines finite model theory with the theory of concatenation - a first-order logic that is based on word equations. Like the theory of concatenation, FC is built around word equations; in contrast…
We give two results for computing doubly-twisted conjugacy relations in free groups with respect to homomorphisms $\phi$ and $\psi$ such that certain remnant words from $\phi$ are longer than the images of generators under $\psi$. Our first…
In recent years, concepts and methods of complex networks have been employed to tackle the word sense disambiguation (WSD) task by representing words as nodes, which are connected if they are semantically similar. Despite the increasingly…
A pseudo-primitive word with respect to an antimorphic involution \theta is a word which cannot be written as a catenation of occurrences of a strictly shorter word t and \theta(t). Properties of pseudo-primitive words are investigated in…
Complex Word Identification (CWI) is a task centered on detecting hard-to-understand words, or groups of words, in texts from different areas of expertise. The purpose of CWI is to highlight problematic structures that non-native speakers…
We exhaustively investigate possible combinations of a boolean operation together with a catenation. In many cases we prove and improve some conjectures by Brzozowski. For each family of operation, we endeavour to provide a common witness…
In this paper we study the state complexity of catenation combined with symmetric difference. First, an upper bound is computed using some combinatoric tools. Then, this bound is shown to be tight by giving a witness for it. Moreover, we…
The binomial notation (w u) represents the number of occurrences of the word u as a (scattered) subword in w. We first introduce and study possible uses of a geometrical interpretation of (w ab) and (w ba) when a and b are distinct letters.…
This thesis investigates three biologically inspired operations: prefix-suffix duplication, bounded prefix-suffix duplication, and prefix-suffix-square completion. Duplication, a common genetic mutation, involves repeating DNA sequences and…
A narrow connection between infinite binary words rich in classical palindromes and infinite binary words rich simultaneously in palindromes and pseudopalindromes (the so-called $H$-rich words) is demonstrated. The correspondence between…
We generalize the combinatorial approaches of Rapaport and Higgins--Lyndon to the Whitehead algorithm. We show that for every automorphism $\varphi$ of a free group $F$ and every word $u\in F$ there exists a finite multiset of words…
In this paper we study the number $r_{bwt}$ of equal-letter runs produced by the Burrows-Wheeler transform ($BWT$) when it is applied to purely morphic finite words, which are words generated by iterating prolongable morphisms. Such a…
It was recently shown by van den Broeck at al. that the symmetric weighted first-order model counting problem (WFOMC) for sentences of two-variable logic FO2 is in polynomial time, while it is Sharp-P_1 complete for some FO3-sentences. We…
A factor $u$ of a word $w$ is a cover of $w$ if every position in $w$ lies within some occurrence of $u$ in $w$. A word $w$ covered by $u$ thus generalizes the idea of a repetition, that is, a word composed of exact concatenations of $u$.…
Given a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ and a right-infinite word $w$ over the alphabet $\Sigma$, we construct a topological space ${\rm Rec}(w)$ consisting of all right-infinite recurrent words whose factors are all factors of $w$, where we work…
Let A be an alphabet and W be a set of words in the free monoid A*. Let S(W) denote the Rees quotient over the ideal of A* consisting of all words that are not subwords of words in W. We call a set of words W finitely based if the monoid…
