Tree Extension Algebras: Logics, Automata, and Query Languages - Benedikt, Libkin   (Correct)

....exists comparing the expressive power of each of these formalisms (see [12, 33] and for translating between declarative formalisms and their procedural implementations. In particular, work on analyzing specifications of trees plays a significant role in program analysis [3, 24] verification [15, 20, 26], logic and constraint programming [29, 30] and linguistics [14, 19] Over the last few years, applications in information exchange have appeared that necessitate new tools for synthesizing tree processing code from a declarative specification. These applications all revolve around XML [1, 35] ....

Relating Hierarchies of Word and Tree Automata - Niwinski, Walukiewicz (1998)   (4 citations)  (Correct)

....of the cases our language L will be an regular language. It is easy to transform a deterministic automaton recognising L into a deterministic automaton recognising Path(L) However, we may a priori hope that using nondeterminism in some clever way we can simplify the automaton for Path(L) In [6], Kupferman, Safra and Vardi investigated this question and showed a result that refutes such a hope in a special case of Buchi automata. More specifically, these authors show that a derived tree language is recognizable by a nondeterministic Buchi tree automaton if and only if the original ....

....of the Mostowski index (1,2) Our main result is that Path(L) can be recognized by a nondeterministic tree automaton of Mostowski index ( n) iff L can be recognized by a deterministic automaton of the same index. That is, L and Path(L) are on the same level in the corresponding hierarchies. In [6] the result was shown for index (1; 2) Let us comment on the advantages of the Mostowski criterion compared to other acceptance criteria considered in the literature, and on the relevance of the aforementioned hierarchies. The Mostowski condition is as powerful as Muller condition for ....

.... Up to current knowledge, the deterministic complexity of the emptiness check depends exponentially on the size of the index (in general it is NP complete for Rabin automata [2] and in NP co NP for Mostowski automata [1] Our work was directly inspired by the work of Kupferman, Safra and 2 Vardi [6], but our proof is different from theirs. For our proof we need a characterization of the index of an word language in terms of properties of the graph of a deterministic automaton recognising the language. This characterization is related with the work of Wagner [16] One may see our ....

....automata. While loose tree automata are weaker than conventional tree automata [Tho90] the expressiveness hierarchy of loose tree automata coincides with that of tree automata (this is beacause the latter coincides with the hierarchy of deterministic word automata [Wag79,Kam85] and is proven in [KSV96,DJW97,Niw97,NW98] by means of languages that can be recognized by loose tree automata) It follows that the expressiveness hierarchy in the context of game bisimulation and 8 bisimulation coincides with that of tree automata. 5 Discussion We considered two equivalence criteria bisimulation ....

It follows that L can be recognized by a DBW. Assume now that L can be recognized by a DBW. Let A = h Sigma; Q; q 0 ; ffi; ffi be a DBW that recognizes L. We define an AFMC ....
