Step by step solution

01

Explain the given information

Use Theorem 1.45 which states the union of regular languages to construct state diagrams of NFA of the given languages.

02

(a) Give the state diagrams of NFAs recognizing the union of the languages


Consider the given languages ,

L1={w|wstartwith1 andfinishwith a0}L2={w|wusingatleastthree1s}on=0,1.

Let M1andM2be the NFAs recognize the languages L1andL2respectively.

The union of the language can be defined as, L=L1L2and Mbe the NFA that recognizes L.

The state diagram of M1is as follows,

The state diagram of M2 is as follows,

Therefore, the state diagram of M is as follows,

03

(b) Give the state diagrams of NFAs recognizing the union of the languages

Consider the languages,

L1={w|wcontainsthesubstring0101i.e,w=x0101yforsomexandy}on={0,1}

L1={w|wdoesn'tcontainthesubstring110}on={0,1}.

Let M1andM2be the NFAs that recognize the languages L1andL2respectively.

The union of two languages is , L=L1L2 and it is recognized by the NFA M.

The state diagram of M1is as follows,

The state diagram of M2is as follows,

Therefore the state diagram of Mis as follows,

Question:Consider the algorithm MINIMIZE, which takes a DFA as input and outputs DFA .

MINIMIZE = “On input , where M=(Q,Σ,δ,q0,A) is a DFA:

1.Remove all states of G that are unreachable from the start state.

2. Construct the following undirected graph G whose nodes are the states of .

3. Place an edge in G connecting every accept state with every non accept state. Add additional edges as follows.

4. Repeat until no new edges are added to G :

5. For every pair of distinct states q and r of and every aΣ :

6. Add the edge (q,r) to G if δq,a,δr,a is an edge of G .

7. For each state q,let[q] be the collection of statesq={rQ|noedge joins q and r in G }.

8.Form a new DFA M'=Q',Σ,δ',q'0,A'where

Q'={[q]|qQ}(ifq=r,onlyoneofthemisinQ'),δ'(q,a)=[δq,a]foreveryqQandaΣ,q00=[q0],andA0={[q]|qA}

9. Output ( M')”

a. Show that M and M' are equivalent.

b. Show that M0 is minimal—that is, no DFA with fewer states recognizes the same language. You may use the result of Problem 1.52 without proof.

c. Show that MINIMIZE operates in polynomial time.
