Deciding Linear Height and Linear Size-To-Height Increase of Macro Tree Transducers

Authors: Paul Gallot, Sebastian Maneth, Keisuke Nakano, and Charles Peyrat

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)


Abstract
We present a novel normal form for (total deterministic) macro tree transducers (mtts), called "depth proper normal form". If an mtt is in this normal form, then it is guaranteed that each parameter of each state appears at arbitrary depths in the output trees of that state. Intuitively, if some parameter only appears at certain bounded depths in the output trees of a state, then this parameter can be eliminated by in-lining the corresponding output paths at each call site of that state. We use regular look-ahead in order to determine which of the paths should be in-lined. As a consequence of changing the look-ahead, a parameter that was previously appearing at unbounded depths, may be appearing at bounded depths for some new look-ahead; for this reason, our construction has to be iterated to obtain an mtt in depth-normal form. Using the normal form, we can decide whether the translation of an mtt has linear height increase or has linear size-to-height increase.

Idempotent Turing Machines

Authors: Keisuke Nakano

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 202, 46th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2021)


Abstract
A function f is said to be idempotent if f(f(x)) = f(x) holds whenever f(x) is defined. This paper presents a computation model for idempotent functions, called an idempotent Turing machine. The computation model is necessarily and sufficiently expressive in the sense that not only does it always compute an idempotent function but also every idempotent computable function can be computed by an idempotent Turing machine. Furthermore, a few typical properties of the computation model such as robustness and universality are shown. Our computation model is expected to be a basis of special-purpose (or domain-specific) programming languages in which only but all idempotent computable functions can be defined.

On Repetitive Right Application of B-Terms

Authors: Mirai Ikebuchi and Keisuke Nakano

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 108, 3rd International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2018)


Abstract
B-terms are built from the B combinator alone defined by B == lambda f.lambda g.lambda x. f~(g~x), which is well-known as a function composition operator. This paper investigates an interesting property of B-terms, that is, whether repetitive right applications of a B-term cycles or not. We discuss conditions for B-terms to have and not to have the property through a sound and complete equational axiomatization. Specifically, we give examples of B-terms which have the property and show that there are infinitely many B-terms which do not have the property. Also, we introduce a canonical representation of B-terms that is useful to detect cycles, or equivalently, to prove the property, with an efficient algorithm.
