چکیده

This paper studies the nonterminal complexity of tree controlled grammars. It is proved that the number of nonterminals in tree controlled grammars without erasing rules leads to an infinite hierarchy of families of tree controlled languages, while every recursively enumerable language can be generated by a tree controlled grammar with erasing rules and at most nine nonterminals. © 2011 Elsevier B.V.

Language Classes Generated by Tree Controlled Grammars with Bounded Nonterminal Complexity

A tree controlled grammar is specified as a pair (G,G) where G is a context-free grammar and G is a regular grammar. Its language consists of all terminal words with a derivation in G such that all levels of the corresponding derivation tree – except the last level – belong to L(G). We define the nonterminal complexity Var(H) of H = (G,G) as the sum of the numbers of nonterminals of G and G. In...

Refining the Nonterminal Complexity of Graph-controlled Grammars

We refine the classical notion of the nonterminal complexity of graph-controlled grammars, programmed grammars, and matrix grammars by also counting, in addition, the number of nonterminal symbols that are actually used in the appearance checking mode. We prove that every recursively enumerable language can be generated by a graph-controlled grammar with only two nonterminal symbols when both s...

Exponential time analysis of con

eNCE (edge label neighborhood controlled) graph grammars belong to the most powerful graph rewriting systems with single-node graphs on the left-hand side of the productions. From an algorithmic point of view, connuent and boundary eNCE graph grammars are the most interesting subclasses of eNCE graph grammars. In connuent eNCE graph grammars, the order in which nonterminal nodes are substituted...

Context-Free Grammars with Storage

Context-free S grammars are introduced, for arbitrary (storage) type S, as a uniform framework for recursion-based grammars, automata, and transducers, viewed as programs. To each occurrence of a nonterminal of a context-free S grammar an object of type S is associated, that can be acted upon by tests and operations, as indicated in the rules of the grammar. Taking particular storage types give...

Parameter reduction and automata evaluation for grammar-compressed trees

Trees can be conveniently compressed with linear straight-line context-free tree grammars. Such grammars generalize straight-line context-free string grammars which are widely used in the development of algorithms that execute directly on compressed structures (without prior decompression). It is shown that every linear straight-line context-free tree grammar can be transformed in polynomial ti...
