Abstract
We investigate the connection between properties of formal languages and properties of their generating series, with a focus on the class of holonomic power series. We first prove a strong version of a conjecture by Castiglione and Massazza: weakly-unambiguous Parikh automata are equivalent to unambiguous two-way reversal bounded counter machines, and their multivariate generating series are holonomic. We then show that the converse is not true: we construct a language whose generating series is algebraic (thus holonomic), but which is inherently weakly-ambiguous as a Parikh automata language. Finally, we prove an effective decidability result for the inclusion problem for weakly-unambiguous Parikh automata, and provide an upper-bound on its complexity.

Using fast matrix multiplication to solve structured linear systems

Authors: Eric Schost, Alin Bostan, and Claude-Pierre Jeannerod

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)


Abstract
Structured linear algebra techniques are a versatile set of tools; they enable one to deal at once with various types of matrices, with features such as Toeplitz-, Hankel-, Vandermonde- or Cauchy-likeness. Following Kailath, Kung and Morf (1979), the usual way of measuring to what extent a matrix possesses one such structure is through its displacement rank, that is, the rank of its image through a suitable displacement operator. Then, for the families of matrices given above, the results of Bitmead-Anderson, Morf, Kaltofen, Gohberg-Olshevsky, Pan (among others) provide algorithm of complexity $O(alpha^2 n)$, up to logarithmic factors, where $n$ is the matrix size and $alpha$ its displacement rank. We show that for Toeplitz- Vandermonde-like matrices, this cost can be reduced to $O(alpha^(omega-1) n)$, where $omega$ is an exponent for linear algebra. We present consequences for Hermite-Pad'e approximation and bivariate interpolation.
