25 Exmple: n unmbiguous NFA 3 b ( ( ) + ( ) ) b b 4 5

26 Exmple: delegto b 3 b b, b ( ( ) + ( ) ) b b,, 4 5 This unmbiguous NFA hs delegto.

27 Exmple: n unmbiguous NFA 3 ( + ) 4 5 this unmbigous NFA hs no k-delegto, k >.

28 Exmple: no delegtos 3 ( + ) 4 5 This unmbigous NFA hs no k-delegto, k >.

29 Exmple: n mbiguous NFA... p pk p k p q... qk q k ( + ) k

30 Exmple: k delegto, no (<k) delegto k, k p,,... k k k pk... p k k k,,..., p k... q k, k qk... q k k k,,..., ( + ) k This NFA hs k-delegto but no ( k ) - delegtos. Note: k-delegtion ( k ) + -delegtion

31 Exmple: n mbiguous NFA,, s s s s 3 ( + ) ( ) ( + )

32 Exmple: no delegtos,, s s s s 3 ( + ) ( ) ( + ) This NFA hs no k-delegto, fo ny k >. ide: tke nd k- k k- k+

33 Why Study NFA Delegtion E Sevice Composition given some specifictions nd set of e sevices, implement n ppliction which follows the specifictions. Deteministic simultion of NFA: ltentive to clssicl subset constuction to simulte n NFA by DFA. Line blow up vs. exponentil blow up. A theoeticl metic fo nondeteminism: if n NFA M hs 3 delegto nd M does not hve k delegto fo, sy k <, then M is moe nondeteministic thn M.

34 Lnguge vs. Mchine Popety 'st Question: Is delegtion lnguge popety o mchine popety? (thee exist infinitely mny NFA fo given egul lnguge)

35 Delegtion s Lnguge Popety L - egul lnguge. L is wekly delegble if ( M )( k )( M hs k delegto) NFA fo L k >. L is stongly delegble if ( k )( M )( M hs k delegto) k> NFA fo L

36 Delegtion s Lnguge Popety Theoem. L is stongly deleg. L is wekly deleg. L is finite Consequence. It is moe inteesting to see delegbility s mchine popety.

37 Complexity of Finding k Delegto Poblems: ( ) P k is n intege not pt of the input. ( P ) ( P ) 3 input : n NFA M output : YES if M hs k delegto, NO othewise input : n NFA M nd n intege k output : YES if M hs k delegto, NO othewise input : n NFA M output : YES if M hs delegto, NO othewise

38 Stte Blindness [ ]... k q p kv p... kv q is... -blind if k (, ) δ (, ), : δ (,... ), δ (,... ) p δ q p q v p v F p v F k k stte is k-blind if thee exists... such tht it is... -blind k k

39 Stte Blindness [ ]... k q p kv p... kv q is... -blind if k (, ) δ (, ), : (,... ), (,... ) p δ q p q v δ p v F= φ δ p v F φ k k stte is k-blind if thee exists... such tht it is... -blind k k

40 Stte blindness is computble Recll tht sting w is q blind if it is not possible in stte q to find deteministic choice given w s the look hed. Define B q = { w w is q blind } Theoem: Let M be DFA with n sttes, nd ove n lphbet of size m, nd let q be stte of M. The lnguge B q is egul, nd thee is DFA with t most (4 n + ) m tht ccepts B q.

41 A Chcteiztion fo Unmbiguous NFA Theoem. An unmbiguous NFA hs k-delegto iff none of its sttes e k-blind. Consequently, n unmbiguous NFA hs delegto iff ll its sttes hve finite blindness.

42 Poblem fo unmbiguous NFA s Theoem: Let k be fixed intege. Thee is polynomil time lgoithm tht given n unmbiguous NFA M detemines if M hs k delegto. Poof (sketch) The poblem cn be educed to the poblem of continment poblem fo unmbiguous NFA s. Fom esult of Hunt nd Stens, this poblem is known to be solvble in polynomil time.

43 Delegtion fo Unmbiguous NFA Theoem(). s ( P) ( P ) ( P ) 3 unmbiguous NFA P co-np PSPACE The poof of co NP nd PSPACE uppe bounds fo P nd P3 e simil to tht of Poblem.

44 Abity NFA All 3 poblems e significntly hde fo genel NFA: - delegto fo (tim) unmbiguous NFA must use ll its sttes: locl popeties (blindness) hve globl impct; - continment nd equivlence poblems e decidble in polynomil time fo unmb. NFA.

45 Abity NFA: Fobidden Wods [ ]... k q p kbp... kb q is... -fobidden if one of the following two conditions k is stisfied ecusively (intuitive def.) :. q is... -blind; k ( ). fo evey stte p δ q, thee exists b such tht p is... b -fobidden. k p p

46 Abity NFA: Fobidden Wods [ ]... k q p kbp... kb q is... -fobidden k is stisfied ecusively (intuitive def.) : if one of the following two conditions. q is... - blind; k ( q ). fo evey stte p δ, thee exists b such tht p is... b - fobidden. k p p

47 Abity NFA: Delegtion Chcteiztion Nottion: F is the set of ll fobidden wods fo q. q Theoem. ( δ ) ( ) An NFA M = Q, Σ,, q, F hs k-delegto iff F pef L = φ. q k M Consequently, n NFA hs delegto iff F is finite. q

48 Delegtion fo Unmbiguous NFA Theoem(). s ( P ) ( P ) ( P ) 3 genel NFA PSPACE-complete PSPACE-hd?

49 Wp up NFA delegtion is finite stte model used in web sevice pplictions, tsk scheduling, NFA simultion, mesue of nondeteminism, etc. NFA delegtion is mchine popety nd its computtionl complexity is mchine dependent: ( P) ( P ) ( P ) 3 unmbiguous P co-np PSPACE genel PSPACE-complete PSPACE-hd? (pevious wok: fo k =, P in the genel cse : EXPTIME)

50 Min open poblem: Diection fo futue wok Investigte complexity mttes fo othe fmilies of NFA. Fo exmple, study NFA tht e shuffle poduct of DFA. Is delegtion decidble fo bity NFA? Study the ntue of. F q Othe Questions: The complexity esult fo Poblem (genel cse) ws poven fo 4 lette lphbet. Cn the PSPACE completeness poof be extended to smlle lphbets? Is poblem complete fo co NP fo unmbiguous NFA? Is poblem 3 complete fo PSPACE fo unmbiguous NFA?
