Estimating Strictly Piecewise Distributions
Strictly Piecewise (SP) languages are a subclass of regular languages which encode certain kinds of long-distance dependencies that are found in natural languages. Like the classe...

On the computation of quotients and factors of regular languages
Quotients and factors are important notions in the design of various computational procedures for regular languages and for the analysis of their logical properties. We propose a n...

Logic Meets Algebra: the Case of Regular Languages
The study of finite automata and regular languages is a privileged meeting point of algebra and logic. Since the work of Büchi, regular languages have been classified according ...

Distributional Learning of Some Context-Free Languages with a Minimally Adequate Teacher
Angluin showed that the class of regular languages could be learned from a Minimally Adequate Teacher (mat) providing membership and equivalence queries. Clark and Eyraud (2007) sh...

LTL Can Be More Succinct
Abstract. It is well known that modelchecking and satisfiability of Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) are Pspace-complete. Wolper showed that with grammar operators, this result can be e...

On universally easy classes for NP-complete problems
We explore the natural question of whether all NP-complete problems have a common restriction under which they are polynomially solvable. More precisely, we study what languages a...

Computing Blocker Sets for the Regular Post Embedding Problem
Abstract. Blocker and coblocker sets are regular languages involved in the algorithmic solution of the Regular Post Embedding Problem. We investigate the computability of these lan...

Overlap-Free Regular Languages
We define a language to be overlap-free if any two distinct strings in the language do not overlap with each other. We observe that overlap-free languages are a proper subfamily of...

A Topological Approach to Recognition
We propose a new approach to the notion of recognition, which departs from the classical definitions by three specific features. First, it does not rely on automata. Secondly, it...
