A finer reparameterisation theorem for MSO and FO queries on strings

Lê Thành Dũng Nguyên, Paweł Parys

We show a theorem on monadic second-order k-ary queries on finite words. It may be illustrated by the following example: if the number of results of a query on binary strings is O(…

Generalised Kauffman Clock Theorems

Nguyen Thanh Tung Le, Daniel V. Mathews

Kauffman's clock theorem provides a distributive lattice structure on the set of states of a four-valent graph in the plane. We prove two distinct generalisations of this theorem,…

Two or three things I know about tree transducers

Lê Thành Dũng Nguyên

You might know that the name "tree transducers" refers to various kinds of automata that compute functions on ranked trees, i.e. terms over a first-order signature. But have you ev…

Refutations of pebble minimization via output languages

Sandra Kiefer, Lê Thành Dũng Nguyên, Cécilia Pradic

Polyregular functions are the class of string-to-string functions definable by pebble transducers, an extension of finite-state automata with outputs and multiple two-way reading h…

Comparison-free polyregular functions

Lê Thành Dũng Tito Nguyên, Camille Noûs, Cécilia Pradic

This paper introduces a new automata-theoretic class of string-to-string functions with polynomial growth. Several equivalent definitions are provided: a machine model which is a r…

Implicit automata in typed -calculi II: streaming transducers vs categorical semantics

Lê Thành Dũng Nguyên, Camille Noûs, Cécilia Pradic

We characterize regular string transductions as programs in a linear -calculus with additives. One direction of this equivalence is proved by encoding copyless streaming string…

When lattice cubes meet affine subspaces: a short note

Lê Thành Dũng Nguyên

We give short and simple proofs of what seem to be folklore results: * the maximum cardinality of the intersection of a lattice cube with an affine subspace; * the minimum number o…

On the Elementary Affine Lambda-Calculus with and Without Fixed Points

Lê Thành Dũng Nguyen

The elementary affine lambda-calculus was introduced as a polyvalent setting for implicit computational complexity, allowing for characterizations of polynomial time and hyperexpon…

Typed lambda-calculi and superclasses of regular functions

Lê Thành Dũng Nguyên

We propose to use Church encodings in typed lambda-calculi as the basis for an automata-theoretic counterpart of implicit computational complexity, in the same way that monadic sec…
