چکیده

We show that the problem of computing all contiguous k-ary compositions of a sequence of n values under an associative and commutative operator requires 3 k−1 k+1n−O(k) operations. For the operator max we show in contrast that in the decision tree model the complexity is ( 1 + Θ(1/ √ k) ) n − O(k). Finally we show that the complexity of the corresponding on-line problem for the operator max is ( 2− 1 k−1 ) n−O(k). ∗This work was partially supported by the ESPRIT Long Term Research Program of the EU under contract #20244 (ALCOM-IT). †Supported by the Danish Natural Science Research Council (Grant No. 9400044). ‡Basic Research in Computer Science, Centre of the Danish National Research Foundation.

Bottom Up Quotients and Residuals for Tree Languages

In this paper, we extend the notion of tree language quotients to bottom-up quotients. Instead of computing the residual of a tree language from top to bottom and producing a list of tree languages, we show how to compute a set of k-ary trees, where k is an arbitrary integer. We define the quotient formula for different combinations of tree languages: union, symbol products, compositions, itera...

Branches in random recursive k-ary trees

In this paper, using generalized {polya} urn models we find the expected value of the size of a branch in recursive $k$-ary trees. We also find the expectation of the number of nodes of a given outdegree in a branch of such trees.

On the $k$-ary ‎M‎oment Map

The moment map is a mathematical expression of the concept of the conservation associated with the symmetries of a Hamiltonian system. The abstract moment map is defined from G-manifold M to dual Lie algebra of G. We will interested study maps from G-manifold M to spaces that are more general than dual Lie algebra of G. These maps help us to reduce the dimension of a manifold much more.

Composing Monadic Queries in Trees

Node selection in trees is a fundamental operation to XML databases, programming languages, and information extraction. We propose a new class of querying languages to define n-ary node selection queries as compositions of monadic queries. The choice of the underlying monadic querying language is parametric. We show that compositions of monadic MSO-definable queries capture n-ary MSO-definable ...

Wilf-Equivalence on k-ary Words, Compositions, and Parking Functions

In this paper, we study pattern-avoidance in the set of words over the alphabet [k]. We say that a word w ∈ [k] contains a pattern τ ∈ [l], if w contains a subsequence order-isomorphic to τ . This notion generalizes pattern-avoidance in permutations. We determine all the Wilf-equivalence classes of word patterns of
