چکیده
— Counting languages are the languages of the form {axa\.. .a n t\ t^2, n^ 1} where au ..., atare letters no two consécutive ofwhich are identical. They possess a "clean structure" in the sensé that if an arbitrary wordfrom such a language is eut in t subwords ofequal length then no two consécutive subwords contain an occurrence of the same letter, It is shown that whenever an FPOL system G is such that Us language contains a "dense enough" subset of a counting language then the whole language ofG cannot have such a clean structure. Résumé. — Les langages « comptants » sont les langages de la forme { a" a\. . . a" \t ^ 2, n ̂ 1} , où au ..., at sont des lettres, et deux lettres consécutives étant différentes. Ils possèdent une « bonne structure », en ce sens que si un mot quelconque d'un tel langage est divisé en t facteurs de même longueur, alors deux facteurs consécutifs ne contiennent pas d'occurrence d'une même lettre. On montre que, si un System FPOL G est tel que son langage contient un sous-ensemble d'un langage comptant qui est « assez dense » alors le langage de G complet ne peut pas avoir cette « bonne structure ».

In Vitro Bacterial Contamination of Amniotic Fluid: Effects on Fluorescence Polarization Lung Maturity Testing
OBJECTIVE We sought to determine the effect of bacteria on fluorescence polarization (FPOL) testing of amniotic fluid. METHODS Fusobacterium necrophorum and Escherichia coli were inoculated at concentrations of 10(3) and 10(6)/ml in amniotic-fluid specimens from 4 patients with no clinical or laboratory evidence of infection. The FPOL results were obtained at inoculation and again at 24 h of ...
متن کاملDual and recombinant infections: an integral part of the HIV-1 epidemic in Brazil.
We systematically evaluated multiple and recombinant infections in an HIV-infected population selected for vaccine trials. Seventy-nine HIV-1 infected persons in a clinical cohort study in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, were evaluated for 1 year. A combination of molecular screening assays and DNA sequencing showed 3 dual infections (3.8%), 6 recombinant infections (7.6%), and 70 (88.6%) infections in...
متن کاملCounting Finite Languages by Total Word Length
We investigate the number of sets of words that can be formed from a finite alphabet, counted by the total length of the words in the set. An explicit expression for the counting sequence is derived from the generating function, and asymptotics for large alphabet size and large total word length are discussed. Moreover, we derive a Gaussian limit law for the number of words in a random finite l...
متن کاملAnalytic Models and Ambiguity of Context-Free Languages
We establish that several classical context-free languages are inherently ambiguous by proving that their counting generating functions, when considered as analytic functions, exhibit some characteristic form of transcendental behaviour. To that purpose, we survey some general results on elementary analytic properties and enumerative uses of algebraic functions in relation to formal languages. ...
متن کاملThe Geometry of Spheres in Free Abelian Groups
We study word metrics on Zd by developing tools that are fine enough to measure dependence on the generating set. We obtain counting and distribution results for the words of length n. With this, we show that counting measure on spheres always converges to cone measure on a polyhedron (strongly, in an appropriate sense). Using the limit measure, we can reduce probabilistic questions about word ...
