چکیده

We introduce a version of Post Correspondence Problem (PCP, in short) generalized to words over partially commutative alphabets. Several observations are presented about the algorithmic status of the introduced problem. In particular solvability is shown for the partially commutative PCP for two special cases: the binary case of PCP (denoted by PCP(2) ), and the case with one periodic morphism. This extends solvability results for the classical PCP for these cases. Also a weaker version of PCP, named here Weak-PCP, is discussed. This version distinguishes (in the sense of solvability) the case of noncommutative from the case of partially commutative alphabets. We consider also a solvable (though NP-hard) simple version of Weak-PCP. Our solvability results demonstrate the power of Ibarra’s algorithms for reversal bounded multi-counter machines.

Algorithmics of Posets Generated by Words over Partially Commutative Alphabets

It is natural to try to relate partially ordered sets (posets in short) and classes of equivalent words over partially commutative alphabets. Their common graphical representation are Hasse diagrams. We will investigate this relation in detail and propose an efficient on-line algorithm that decompresses a string to Hasse diagram. Further we propose a definition of the canonical representatives ...

It is natural to relate partially ordered sets (posets in short) and classes of equivalent words over partially commutative alphabets. Their common graphical representation are Hasse diagrams. We investigate this relation in detail and propose an efficient online algorithm that decompresses a concurrent word to its Hasse diagram. The lexicographically minimal representative of a trace (an equiv...

Undecidability of Infinite Post Correspondence Problem for Instances

In the infinite Post Correspondence Problem an instance (h, g) consists of two morphisms h and g, and the problem is to determine whether or not there exists an infinite word ω such that h(ω) = g(ω). This problem was shown to be undecidable by Ruohonen (1985) in general. Recently Blondel and Canterini (Theory Comput. Syst. 36 (2003) 231–245) showed that this problem is undecidable for domain al...
