Automatic and polynomial-time algebraic structures

N Bazhenov, M Harrison-Trainor… - The Journal of …, 2019 - cambridge.org
A structure is automatic if its domain, functions, and relations are all regular languages.
Using the fact that every automatic structure is decidable, in the literature many decision …

From automatic structures to automatic groups

O Kharlampovich, B Khoussainov… - Groups, Geometry, and …, 2014 - ems.press
In this paper we introduce the concept of a Cayley graph automatic group (CGA group or
graph automatic group, for short) which generalizes the standard notion of an automatic …

Green's relations and their use in automata theory

T Colcombet - Language and Automata Theory and Applications: 5th …, 2011 - Springer
The objective of this survey is to present the ideal theory of monoids, the so-called Green's
relations, and to illustrate the usefulness of this tool for solving automata related questions …

Semiautomatic structures

S Jain, B Khoussainov, F Stephan, D Teng… - Theory of Computing …, 2017 - Springer
Semiautomatic structures generalise automatic structures in the sense that for some of the
relations and functions in the structure one only requires the derived relations and functions …

Profinite rigidity of affine Coxeter groups

G Paolini, R Sklinos - arXiv preprint arXiv:2407.01141, 2024 - arxiv.org
We prove that the irreducible affine Coxeter groups are first-order rigid and deduce from this
that they are profinitely rigid in the absolute sense. We then show that the first-order theory of …

Logic Blog 2022

A Nies - arXiv preprint arXiv:2302.11853, 2023 - arxiv.org
The 2022 logic blog has concentrated on the connections of group theory and logic. It
discusses Gardam's 2021 refutation of the Higman/Kaplansky unit conjecture, and its …

[HTML][HTML] Automatic learners with feedback queries

J Case, S Jain, YS Ong, P Semukhin… - Journal of Computer and …, 2014 - Elsevier
Automatic classes are classes of languages for which a finite automaton can decide whether
a given element is in a set given by its index. The present work studies the learnability of …

[HTML][HTML] Tree-automatic scattered linear orders

S Jain, B Khoussainov, P Schlicht, F Stephan - Theoretical Computer …, 2016 - Elsevier
Tree-automatic linear orders on regular tree languages are studied. It is shown that there is
no tree-automatic scattered linear order, and therefore no tree-automatic well-order, on the …

String compression in FA–presentable structures

D Berdinsky, S Jain, B Khoussainov… - Theoretical Computer …, 2023 - Elsevier
We construct a FA–presentation ψ: L→ N of the structure (N; S) for which a numerical
characteristic r (n) defined as the maximum number ψ (w) for all strings w∈ L of length less …

Cayley polynomial–time computable groups

D Berdinsky, M Elder, P Kruengthomya - Information and Computation, 2022 - Elsevier
We propose a new generalization of Cayley automatic groups, varying the time complexity of
computing multiplication, and language complexity of the normal form representatives. We …
