چکیده

In the paper, we continue our study on the state complexity of combined operations on regular languages. We study the state complexities of k ∪ i=1 Li , k ∩ i=1 Li , k ∪ i=1 Li , and k ∩ i=1 Li , for regular languages Li, 1 ≤ i ≤ k. We obtain the exact bounds for these combined operations and show that the state complexities of k ∪ i=1 Li and k ∩ i=1 Li are the same as the mathematical compositions of the state complexities of their component individual operations, while, on the other hand, the state complexities of k ∪ i=1 Li and k ∩ i=1 Li are lower than the corresponding mathematical compositions.

State complexity of union and intersection combined with star and reversal

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...

State Complexity of Basic Operations on Non-returning Regular Languages

We consider the state complexity of basic operations on non-returning regular languages. For a non-returning minimal DFA, the start state does not have any in-transitions. We establish the precise state complexity of four Boolean operations (union, intersection, difference, symmetric difference), catenation, reverse, and Kleene-star for non-returning regular languages. Our results are usually s...

State Complexity of k-Union and k-Intersection for Prefix-Free Regular Languages

We investigate the state complexity of multiple unions and of multiple intersections for prefix-free regular languages. Prefix-free deterministic finite automata have their own unique structural properties that are crucial for obtaining state complexity upper bounds that are improved from those for general regular languages. We present a tight lower bound construction for k-union using an alpha...

Nondeterministic 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...
