State complexity of union and intersection combined with star and reversal
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we study the state complexities of union and intersection combined with star and reversal, respectively. We obtain the state complexities of these combined operations on regular languages and show that they are less than the mathematical composition of the state complexities of their individual participating operations.

State Complexity of Combined Operations for Prefix-Free Regular Languages
We investigate the state complexity of combined operations for prefix-free regular languages. Prefix-free minimal deterministic finitestate automata have a unique structural property that plays an important role to obtain the precise state complexity of basic operations. Based on the same property, we establish the precise state complexity of four combined operations: star-of-union, star-of-int...
متن کاملUniversal Witnesses for State Complexity of Basic Operations Combined with Reversal
We study the state complexity of boolean operations, concatenation, and star, with one or two of the argument languages reversed. We derive tight upper bounds for the symmetric differences and differences of such languages. We prove that the previously discovered bounds for union, intersection, concatenation and star of such languages can all be met by the recently introduced universal witness ...
متن کاملState complexity of combined operations
We study the state complexity of combined operations. Two particular combined operations are studied: star of union and star of intersection. It is shown that the state complexity of a combined operation is not necessarily similar to the combination of the individual state complexities of the participating operations. c © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

متن کاملQuotient Complexity of Star-Free Languages
The quotient complexity, also known as state complexity, of a regular language is the number of distinct left quotients of the language. The quotient complexity of an operation is the maximal quotient complexity of the language resulting from the operation, as a function of the quotient complexities of the operands. The class of star-free languages is the smallest class containing the finite la...
متن کاملNondeterministic State Complexity of Basic Operations for Prefix-Free Regular Languages
We investigate the nondeterministic state complexity of basic operations for prefix-free regular languages. The nondeterministic state complexity of an operation is the number of states that are necessary and sufficient in the worst-case for a minimal nondeterministic finite-state automaton that accepts the language obtained from the operation. We establish the precise state complexity of caten...
