One-way quantum finite automata together with classical states (1QFAC) proposed in [Journal of Computer and System Sciences 81(2) (2015) 359--375] is a new one-way quantum finite automata (1QFA) model that integrates quantum finite automata…
Let R be a family of n axis-parallel rectangles with packing number p-1, meaning that among any p of the rectangles, there are two with a non-empty intersection. We show that the union complexity of R is at most O(n+p^2), and that the…
The minimal Kolmogorov complexity of a total computable function that exceeds everywhere all total computable functions of complexity at most $n$, is $2^{n+O(1)}$. If we replace "everywhere" by "for all sufficiently large inputs", the…
We show that the Parikh image of the language of an NFA with n states over an alphabet of size k can be described as a finite union of linear sets with at most k generators and total size 2^{O(k^2 log n)}, i.e., polynomial for all fixed k…
We extend the matrix decomposition method(MDM) in classifying the $2\times N\times N$ truly entangled states to $2\times M\times N$ system under the condition of stochastic local operations and classical communication. It is found that the…
Multi-letter {\it quantum finite automata} (QFAs) were a quantum variant of classical {\it one-way multi-head finite automata} (J. Hromkovi\v{c}, Acta Informatica 19 (1983) 377-384), and it has been shown that this new one-way QFAs…
The Thue-Morse set is the set of those nonnegative integers whose binary expansions have an even number of $1$. We obtain an exact formula for the state complexity of the multiplication by a constant of the Thue-Morse set $\mathcal{T}$ with…
The atoms of a regular language are non-empty intersections of complemented and uncomplemented quotients of the language. Tight upper bounds on the number of atoms of a language and on the quotient complexities of atoms are known. We…
Consider nondeterministic finite automata recognizing base-k positional notation of numbers. Assume that numbers are read starting from their least significant digits. It is proved that if two sets of numbers S and T are represented by…
We examine questions involving nondeterministic finite automata where all states are final, initial, or both initial and final. First, we prove hardness results for the nonuniversality and inequivalence problems for these NFAs. Next, we…
In this paper we give a definition for the Kolmogorov complexity of a pure quantum state. In classical information theory the algorithmic complexity of a string is a measure of the information needed by a universal machine to reproduce the…
The subword complexity of a finite word $w$ of length $N$ is a function which associates to each $n\le N$ the number of all distinct subwords of $w$ having the length $n$. We define the \emph{maximal complexity} C(w) as the maximum of the…
The syntactic complexity of a regular language is the cardinality of its syntactic semigroup. The syntactic complexity of a subclass of the class of regular languages is the maximal syntactic complexity of languages in that class, taken as…
Some progress is reported on conditions for convertibility among bipartite 2x2 entangled states: An inconvertibility condition related to the rank of an entangled state is given that it is impossible to convert to an entangled state with…
Given a sequence $S$ of length $n$, a letter-duplicated subsequence is a subsequence of $S$ in the form of $x_1^{d_1}x_2^{d_2}\cdots x_k^{d_k}$ with $x_i\in\Sigma$, $x_j\neq x_{j+1}$ and $d_i\geq 2$ for all $i$ in $[k]$ and $j$ in $[k-1]$.…
We revisit the complexity of procedures on SFAs (such as intersection, emptiness, etc.) and analyze them according to the measures we find suitable for symbolic automata: the number of states, the maximal number of transitions exiting a…
Finite-state complexity is a variant of algorithmic information theory obtained by replacing Turing machines with finite transducers. We consider the state-size of transducers needed for minimal descriptions of arbitrary strings and, as our…
We investigate the syntactic complexity of certain types of finitely generated submonoids of a free monoid. In fact, we consider those submonoids which are accepted by circular semi-flower automata (CSFA). Here, we show that the syntactic…
In a simple pattern matching problem one has a pattern $w$ and a text $t$, which are words over a finite alphabet $\Sigma$. One may ask whether $w$ occurs in $t$, and if so, where? More generally, we may have a set $P$ of patterns and a set…
Multi-letter {\it quantum finite automata} (QFAs) were a new one-way QFA model proposed recently by Belovs, Rosmanis, and Smotrovs (LNCS, Vol. 4588, Springer, Berlin, 2007, pp. 60-71), and they showed that multi-letter QFAs can accept with…
