Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from New Theoretical and Computational Results for Regular Languages
A nondeterministic finite automata (abbr. Nfa) M is a 5-tuple F, where Q is a set of states, I g Q is the set of initial states, F g Q is the set of final states, and 6 C Q x (2 x Q) is a labeled directed graph with vertices Q and an edge labeled a connecting state q to state p for every p]] belonging to 6. For all q 6 Q and a 6 2 we use the notation b(q, a) to denote the set {p [q, E 6} of all statesreachable from state q by a single edge labeled a It is useful to generalize this notation with the following rules, where T C Q, s E E', and B C E.
