چکیده

Combining the the results of A.R. Meyer and L.J. Stockmeyer " The Equivalence Problem for Regular Expressions with Squaring Requires Exponential Space " , and K.S. Booth " Iso-morphism testing for graphs, semigroups, and finite automata are polynomiamlly equivalent problems " shows that graph isomorphism is PSPACE-complete. The equivalence problem for regular expressions was shown to be PSPACE-complete by (Meyer and Stockmeyer [2]). Booth [1] has shown that isomorphism of finite automata is equivalent to graph isomorphism. Taking these two results together with the equivalence of regular expressions, right-linear grammars, and finite automata see [3] for example, shows that graph isomorphism is PSPACE-complete. References [1] Booth, K.S. Isomorphism testing for graphs, semigroups, and finite automata are poly-nomiamlly equivalent problems, SIAM J.

Isomorphism of Regular Trees and Words

The complexity of the isomorphism problem for regular trees, regular linear orders, and regular words is analyzed. A tree is regular if it is isomorphic to the prefix order on a regular language. In case regular languages are represented by NFAs (DFAs), the isomorphism problem for regular trees turns out to be EXPTIME-complete (resp. P-complete). In case the input automata are acyclic NFAs (acy...

The isomorphism problem for finite extensions of free groups is in PSPACE

We present an algorithm for the following problem: given a context-free grammar for the word problem of a virtually free group G, compute a finite graph of groups G with finite vertex groups and fundamental group G. Our algorithm is nondeterministic and runs in doubly exponential time. It follows that the isomorphism problem of context-free groups can be solved in doubly exponential space. More...

Homomorphism Reconfiguration via Homotopy

For a fixed graph H, we consider the H-Recoloring problem : given a graph G and two H-colorings of G, i.e., homomorphisms from G to H, can one be transformed into the other by changing one color at a time, maintaining an H-coloring throughout. This is the same as finding a path in the Hom(G,H) complex. For H = Kk this is the problem of finding paths between k-colorings, which was recently shown...

Solution-Graphs of Boolean Formulas and Isomorphism

The solution graph of a Boolean formula on n variables is the subgraph of the hypercube Hn induced by the satisfying assignments of the formula. The structure of solution graphs has been the object of much research in recent years since it is important for the performance of SAT-solving procedures based on local search. Several authors have studied connectivity problems in such graphs focusing ...

The Sum Graph of Non-essential Submodules

Throughout this paper, R will denote a commutative ring with identity and M is a unitary R- module and Z will denote the ring of integers. We introduce the graph Ω(M) of module M with the set of vertices contain all nontrivial non-essential submodules of M. We investigate the interplay between graph-theoretic properties of Ω(M) and algebraic properties of M. Also, we assign the values of natura...
