An introduction to some recently developed methods for the analysis of systems of singularly perturbed ordinary differential equations is given in the context of a specific problem describing glycolytic oscillations. In suitably scaled variables the governing equations are a planar system of ordinary differential equations depending singularly on two small parameters ε and δ. In [20] it was arg...
We study the size-cost of boolean operations on constant height deterministic pushdown automata. We prove an asymptotically optimal exponential blow-up for union and intersection, as well as polynomial blow-up for complement.
