Polishness of Some Topologies Related to Automata

Authors: Olivier Carton, Olivier Finkel, and Dominique Lecomte

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 82, 26th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2017)


Abstract
We prove that the Büchi topology, the automatic topology, the alphabetic topology and the strong alphabetic topology are Polish, and provide consequences of this.

The Determinacy of Context-Free Games

Authors: Olivier Finkel

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 14, 29th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2012)


Abstract
We prove that the determinacy of Gale-Stewart games whose winning sets are accepted by real-time 1-counter Büchi automata is equivalent to the determinacy of (effective) analytic Gale-Stewart games which is known to be a large cardinal assumption. We show also that the determinacy of Wadge games between two players in charge of omega-languages accepted by 1-counter Büchi automata is equivalent to the (effective) analytic Wadge determinacy. Using some results of set theory we prove that one can effectively construct a 1-counter Büchi automaton A and a Büchi automaton B such that: (1) There exists a model of ZFC in which Player 2 has a winning strategy in the Wadge game W(L(A), L(B)); (2) There exists a model of ZFC in which the Wadge game W(L(A), L(B)) is not determined. Moreover these are the only two possibilities, i.e. there are no models of ZFC in which Player 1 has a winning strategy in the Wadge game W(L(A), L(B)).

Topological Complexity of omega-Powers: Extended Abstract

Authors: Olivier Finkel and Dominique Lecomte

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8271, Topological and Game-Theoretic Aspects of Infinite Computations (2008)


Abstract
The operation of taking the omega-power $V^omega$ of a language $V$ is a fundamental operation over finitary languages leading to omega-languages. Since the set $X^omega$ of infinite words over a finite alphabet $X$ can be equipped with the usual Cantor topology, the question of the topological complexity of omega-powers of finitary languages naturally arises and has been posed by Damian Niwinski (1990), Pierre Simonnet (1992), and Ludwig Staiger (1997). We investigate the topological complexity of omega-powers. We prove the following very surprising results which show that omega-powers exhibit a great opological complexity: for each non-null countable ordinal $xi$, there exist some $Sigma^0_xi$-complete omega-powers, and some $Pi^0_xi$-complete omega-powers. On the other hand, the Wadge hierarchy is a great refinement of the Borel hierarchy, determined by Bill Wadge. We show that, for each ordinal $xi$ greater than or equal to 3, there are uncountably many Wadge degrees of omega-powers of Borel rank $xi +1$. Using tools of effective descriptive set theory, we prove some effective versions of the above results.
