A set of integers is $S$-recognizable in an abstract numeration system $S$ if the language made up of the representations of its elements is accepted by a finite automaton. For abstract numeration systems built over bounded languages with…
A fundamental theme in automata theory is regular languages of words and trees, and their many equivalent definitions. Salvati has proposed a generalization to regular languages of simply typed $\lambda$-terms, defined using denotational…
Let D denote an infinite alphabet -- a set that consists of infinitely many symbols. A word w = a_0 b_0 a_1 b_1 ... a_n b_n of even length over D can be viewed as a directed graph G_w whose vertices are the symbols that appear in w, and the…
Regular sequences are natural generalisations of fixed points of constant-length substitutions on finite alphabets, that is, of automatic sequences. Using the harmonic analysis of measures associated with substitutions as motivation, we…
The sequential structure of language, and the order of words in a sentence specifically, plays a central role in human language processing. Consequently, in designing computational models of language, the de facto approach is to present…
Automatic sequences have many properties that other sequences (in particular, non-uniformly morphic sequences) do not necessarily share. In this paper we survey a number of different methods that can be used to prove that a given sequence…
The notion of almost periodicity nontrivially generalizes the notion of periodicity. Strongly almost periodic sequences (=uniformly recurrent infinite words) first appeared in the field of symbolic dynamics, but then turned out to be…
We follow language theoretic approach to synchronizing automata and \v{C}ern\'{y}'s conjecture initiated in a series of recent papers. We find a precise lower bound for the reset complexity of a principal ideal languages. Also we show a…
Cameron introduced a bijection between the set of sum-free sets and the set of all zero-one sequences. In this paper, we study the sum-free sets of natural numbers corresponding to certain zero-one sequences which contain the Cantor-like…
We consider the problem of computing the probability of regular languages of infinite trees with respect to the natural coin-flipping measure. We propose an algorithm which computes the probability of languages recognizable by \emph{game…
We present in this paper a new method to deal with automatic sequences. This method allows us to prove a M\"obius-randomness-principle for automatic sequences from which we deduce the Sarnak conjecture for this class of sequences.…
We develop a general framework for the specification and implementation of systems whose executions are words, or partial orders, over an infinite alphabet. As a model of an implementation, we introduce class register automata, a one-way…
This article consists to give a necessary and sufficient condition of the meromorphic continuity of Dirichlet series defined as $\sum_{x\in \mathbf{N}^n} \frac{a_{x}}{P(x)^s}$, Where $a_{x}$ is a $q$-automatic sequence of $n$ parameters and…
Analogous to regular string and tree languages, regular languages of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are defined in the literature. Although called regular, those DAG-languages are more powerful and, consequently, standard problems have a…
By replacing the letters to polynomials in F_2[t], an infinite word, over a finite alphabet, can be seen as the sequence of partial quotients of a continued fraction in F_2((1/t)). Here is described a family of such infinite words,…
We prove a kind of a pumping lemma for languages accepted by one-register alternating finite-memory automata. As a corollary, we obtain that the set of lengths of words in such languages is semi-linear.
Inspired by distributed algorithms, we introduce a new class of finite graph automata that recognize precisely the graph languages definable in monadic second-order logic. For the cases of words and trees, it has been long known that the…
It is well-known that there exist infinite sequences that are the fixed point of non-uniform morphisms, but not $k$-automatic for any $k$. In this note we show that every $k$-automatic sequence is the image of a fixed point of a {\it…
We study the task, for a given language $L$, of enumerating the (generally infinite) sequence of its words, without repetitions, while bounding the delay between two consecutive words. To allow for delay bounds that do not depend on the…
The states of a deterministic finite automaton A can be identified with collections of words in Pf(L(A)) -- the set of prefixes of words belonging to the regular language accepted by A. But words can be ordered and among the many possible…
