Parallel Enumeration of Parse Trees

Authors: Margarita Mikhelson and Alexander Okhotin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 272, 48th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2023)


Abstract
A parallel algorithm for enumerating parse trees of a given string according to a fixed context-free grammar is defined. The algorithm computes the number of parse trees of an input string; more generally, it applies to computing the weight of a string in a weighted grammar. The algorithm is first implemented on an arithmetic circuit of depth O((log n)²) with O(n⁶) elements. Then, it is improved using fast matrix multiplication to use only O(n^5.38) elements, while preserving depth O((log n)²).

Probabilistic Input-Driven Pushdown Automata

Authors: Alex Rose and Alexander Okhotin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 272, 48th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2023)


Abstract
A probabilistic variant of input-driven pushdown automata (IDPDA), also known as visibly pushdown automata, is introduced. It is proved that these automata can be determinized: an n-state probabilistic IDPDA that accepts each string with probability at least λ+δ or at most λ-δ is transformed to a deterministic IDPDA with at most (1 + 1/δ)^(n² - n) states recognizing the same language. An asymptotically close lower bound is provided: for infinitely many n, there is a probabilistic IDPDA with 4n + 1 states and δ = 1/(270n), such that every equivalent deterministic IDPDA needs at least 7^(n²/14) states. A few special cases of automata with reduced determinization complexity are identified.

Lower Bounds for Graph-Walking Automata

Authors: Olga Martynova and Alexander Okhotin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 187, 38th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2021)


Abstract
Graph-walking automata (GWA) traverse graphs by moving between the nodes following the edges, using a finite-state control to decide where to go next. It is known that every GWA can be transformed to a GWA that halts on every input, to a GWA returning to the initial node in order to accept, as well as to a reversible GWA. This paper establishes lower bounds on the state blow-up of these transformations: it is shown that making an n-state GWA traversing k-ary graphs return to the initial node requires at least 2(n-1)(k-3) states in the worst case; the same lower bound holds for the transformation to halting automata. Automata satisfying both properties at once must have at least 4(n-1)(k-3) states. A reversible automaton must have at least 4(n-1)(k-3)-1 states. These bounds are asymptotically tight to the upper bounds proved using the methods from the literature.

Computational and Proof Complexity of Partial String Avoidability

Authors: Dmitry Itsykson, Alexander Okhotin, and Vsevolod Oparin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 58, 41st International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2016)


Abstract
The partial string avoidability problem, also known as partial word avoidability, is stated as follows: given a finite set of strings with possible ``holes'' (undefined symbols), determine whether there exists any two-sided infinite string containing no substrings from this set, assuming that a hole matches every symbol. The problem is known to be NP-hard and in PSPACE, and this paper establishes its PSPACE-completeness. Next, string avoidability over the binary alphabet is interpreted as a version of conjunctive normal form (CNF) satisfiability problem (SAT), with each clause having infinitely many shifted variants. Non-satisfiability of these formulas can be proved using variants of classical propositional proof systems, augmented with derivation rules for shifting constraints (such as clauses, inequalities, polynomials, etc). Two results on their proof complexity are established. First, there is a particular formula that has a short refutation in Resolution with shift, but requires classical proofs of exponential size (Resolution, Cutting Plane, Polynomial Calculus, etc.). At the same time, exponential lower bounds for shifted versions of classical proof systems are established.

Parsing Unary Boolean Grammars Using Online Convolution

Authors: Alexander Okhotin and Christian Reitwießner

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10501, Advances and Applications of Automata on Words and Trees (2011)


Abstract
In contrast to context-free grammars, the extension of these grammars by explicit conjunction, the so-called conjunctive grammars can generate (quite complicated) non-regular languages over a single-letter alphabet (DLT 2007). Given these expressibility results, we study the parsability of Boolean grammars, an extension of context-free grammars by conjunction and negation, over a unary alphabet and show that they can be parsed in time O(|G| log^2(n) M(n)) where M(n) is the time to multiply two n-bit integers. This multiplication algorithm is transformed into a convolution algorithm which in turn is converted to an online convolution algorithm which is used for the parsing.

On Equations over Sets of Integers

Authors: Artur Jez and Alexander Okhotin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 5, 27th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (2010)


Abstract
Systems of equations with sets of integers as unknowns are considered. It is shown that the class of sets representable by unique solutions of equations using the operations of union and addition $S+T=\makeset{m+n}{m \in S, \: n \in T}$ and with ultimately periodic constants is exactly the class of hyper-arithmetical sets. Equations using addition only can represent every hyper-arithmetical set under a simple encoding. All hyper-arithmetical sets can also be represented by equations over sets of natural numbers equipped with union, addition and subtraction $S \dotminus T=\makeset{m-n}{m \in S, \: n \in T, \: m \geqslant n}$. Testing whether a given system has a solution is $\Sigma^1_1$-complete for each model. These results, in particular, settle the expressive power of the most general types of language equations, as well as equations over subsets of free groups.

Equations over Sets of Natural Numbers with Addition Only

Authors: Artur Jez and Alexander Okhotin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 3, 26th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (2009)


Abstract
Systems of equations of the form $X=YZ$ and $X=C$ are considered, in which the unknowns are sets of natural numbers, ``$+$'' denotes pairwise sum of sets $S+T=\ensuremath{ \{ m+n \: | \: m \in S, \; n \in T \} }$, and $C$ is an ultimately periodic constant. It is shown that such systems are computationally universal, in the sense that for every recursive (r.e., co-r.e.) set $S \subseteq \mathbb{N}$ there exists a system with a unique (least, greatest) solution containing a component $T$ with $S=\ensuremath{ \{ n \: | \: 16n+13 \in T \} }$. This implies undecidability of basic properties of these equations. All results also apply to language equations over a one-letter alphabet with concatenation and regular constants.

Complexity of solutions of equations over sets of natural numbers

Authors: Alexander Okhotin and Artur Jez

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 1, 25th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (2008)


Abstract
Systems of equations over sets of natural numbers (or, equivalently, language equations over a one-letter alphabet) of the form $X_i=varphi_i(X_1, ldots, X_n)$ ($1 leqslant i leqslant n$) are considered. Expressions $varphi_i$ may contain the operations of union, intersection and pairwise sum $A plus B = {x + y mid x in A, y in B$. A system with an EXPTIME-complete least solution is constructed, and it is established that least solutions of all such systems are in EXPTIME. The general membership problem for these equations is proved to be EXPTIME-complete.
