Abstract: In the automata-theoretic approach to verification, we translate specifications to automata. Complexity considerations motivate the distinction between different types of automata. Already in the 60's, it was known that deterministic Buchi word automata are less expressive than nondeterministic Buchi word automata. The proof is easy and can be stated in a few lines. In the late 60's, Rabin proved that Buchi tree automata are less expressive than Rabin tree automata. This proof is much harder.... (Update)
