Word Structures and Their Automatic Presentations

Authors: Xiaoyang Gong, Bakh Khoussainov, and Yuyang Zhuge

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)

Abstract
We study automatic presentations of the structures (ℕ; S), (ℕ; E_S), (ℕ; ≤), and their expansions by a unary predicate U. Here S is the successor function, E_S is the undirected version of S, and ≤ is the natural order. We call these structures word structures. Our goal is three-fold. First, we study the isomorphism problem for automatic word structures by focusing on the following three problems. The first problem asks to design an algorithm that, given an automatic structure A, decides if A is isomorphic to (ℕ; S). The second asks to design an algorithm that, given two automatic presentations of (ℕ; S, U₁) and (ℕ; S, U₂), where U₁ and U₂ are unary predicates, decides if these structures are isomorphic. The third problem investigates if there is an algorithm that, given two automatic presentations of (ℕ; ≤, U₁) and (ℕ; ≤, U₂), decides whether U₁ ∩ U₂ ≠ ∅. We show that these problems are undecidable. Next, we study intrinsic regularity of the function S in the structure Path_ω = (ℕ; E_S). We build an automatic presentation of Path_ω in which S is not regular. This implies that S is not intrinsically regular in Path_ω. For U ⊆ ℕ, let d_U be the function that computes the distances between the consecutive elements of U. We build automatic presentations of (ℕ; ≤, U) where d_U can realise logarithmic, radical, intermediate, and exponential functions.

Deciding Regular Games: a Playground for Exponential Time Algorithms

Authors: Zihui Liang, Bakh Khoussainov, and Mingyu Xiao

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)

Abstract
Regular games form a well-established class of games for analysis and synthesis of reactive systems. They include colored Muller games, McNaughton games, Muller games, Rabin games, and Streett games. These games are played on directed graphs G where Player 0 and Player 1 play by generating an infinite path ρ through the graph. The winner is determined by specifications put on the set X of vertices in ρ that occur infinitely often. These games are determined, enabling the partitioning of G into two sets Win₀ and Win₁ of winning positions for Player 0 and Player 1, respectively. Numerous algorithms exist that decide instances of regular games, e.g., Muller games, by computing Win₀ and Win₁. In this paper we aim to find general principles for designing uniform algorithms that decide all regular games. For this we utilize various recursive and dynamic programming algorithms that leverage standard notions such as subgames and traps. Importantly, we show that our techniques improve or match the performances of existing algorithms for many instances of regular games.

Infinite and Bi-infinite Words with Decidable Monadic Theories

Authors: Dietrich Kuske, Jiamou Liu, and Anastasia Moskvina

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 41, 24th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2015)

Abstract
We study word structures of the form (D,<=,P) where D is either N or Z, <= is a linear ordering on D and P in D is a predicate on D. In particular we show: (a) The set of recursive omega-words with decidable monadic second order theories is Sigma_3-complete. (b) We characterise those sets P subset of Z that yield bi-infinite words (Z,<=,P) with decidable monadic second order theories. (c) We show that such "tame" predicates P exist in every Turing degree. (d) We determine, for P subset of Z, the number of predicates Q subset of Z such that (Z,<=,P) and (Z,<=,Q) are indistinguishable. Through these results we demonstrate similarities and differences between logical properties of infinite and bi-infinite words.
