A polynomial-time algorithm is developed to decide whether a given deterministic finite automaton is completely reachable, solving an open problem. Additionally, a quadratic upper bound is proven on the length of the shortest words reaching any non-empty subset of states in a completely reachable automaton.
Mata is a well-engineered, fast, and simple finite automata library designed for applications such as string constraint solving, regular expression processing, and regular model checking.
Lasso languages can be rational, leading to a Kleene theorem for ω-languages.
The author explores the validity of Don's conjecture for completely reachable automata, presenting results for both binary and standardized DFAs. The main thesis is to investigate the reachability of subsets in completely reachable automata and analyze the implications of violating Don's conjecture.
