Prove that is decidable by testing the two DFAs on all strings up to a certain size. Calculate a size that works.
Short Answer
The string length must be less than or equal to n.m, where

Get started for freeSay that an NFA is ambiguous if it accepts some string along two different computation branches
Show that is decidable. (Suggestion: One elegant way to solve this problem is to construct a suitable DFA and then run on it.)
Let A be a Turing-recognizable language consisting of descriptions of Turing machines, , where everyMiis a decider. Prove that some decidable languageDis not decided by any deciderMiwhose description appears in A. (Hint: You may find it helpful to consider an enumerator for A.)
Let Show that is decidable.
Say that a variable in CFLrole="math" localid="1659808454707" is usable if it appears in some derivation of some string . Given a CFG and a variable , consider the problem of testing whether is usable. Formulate this problem as a language and show that it is decidable.
Review the way that we define sets to be the same size in Definition 4.12 (page 203). Show that “is the same size” is an equivalence relation.
