17 2. A small exam: algebra or coalgebra?

18 Initial state 1 x where X is a (possibly infinite) set and 1 = {0} X x X We will call X pointed, with point (or: initial state) x.

19 Accepting states c 2 where X 2 = {0, 1} We will call c a colouring. And: - if c(x) = 1 then we call x accepting. - if c(x) = 0 then we call x non-accepting.

20 (Deterministic) automaton with - X is the set of states - A is the input alphabet - X A = { g g : A X } - notation: X α X A x a y α(x)(a) = y

21 (Deterministic) automaton Because X A X = X X A we have: X A α X and X α X A It is both an algebra and a coalgebra

22 (Deterministic) automaton Because X A X = X X A we have: X A α X and X α X A It is both an algebra and a coalgebra

23 A pointed automaton (X, x, α) 1 x X α X A It is an algebra, not a coalgebra.

24 A pointed automaton (X, x, α) 1 x X α X A It is an algebra, not a coalgebra.

25 A coloured automaton (X, c, α) c 2 X α X A It is a coalgebra, not an algebra.

26 A coloured automaton (X, c, α) c 2 X α X A It is a coalgebra, not an algebra.

27 A pointed and coloured automaton (X, x, c, α) 1 x c 2 X α X A is neither an algebra nor a coalgebra.

28 A pointed and coloured automaton (X, x, c, α) 1 x c 2 X α X A is neither an algebra nor a coalgebra.

30 3. The scene: the algebra-coalgebra duality of automata cf. Kalman s duality [1959] controllability - observability cf. Arbib and Manes categorical approach to automata

31 The scene: initial algebra and final coalgebra 1 x c ε σ A r x X α o c 2 ε? 2 A τ (A ) A (r x ) A X A (o c ) A (2 A ) A

32 first: homomorphisms of automata α h X Y X A h A Y A β β( h(x) )(a) = h( α(x)(a) ) x 1 a x 2 h(x 1 ) a h(x 2 )

33 Initial algebra 1 x c ε σ A r x X α o c 2 ε? 2 A τ (A ) A (r x ) A X A (o c ) A (2 A ) A

34 The pointed automaton of words 1 ε A σ (A ) A ε = the empty word as initial state

35 The pointed automaton of words 1 ε A σ (A ) A σ(w)(a) = w a that is, transitions: w a wa b wab

36 Initial algebra semantics 1 x ε σ A X! r x α (A ) A (r x ) A X A r x (w) = x w : the state reached from x on input w

37 Initial algebra semantics: reachability 1 x ε σ A r x X α (A ) A (r x ) A X A r x = the reachability map if r x is surjective then (X, x, α) is called reachable

38 Final coalgebra 1 x c ε σ A r x X α o c 2 ε? 2 A τ (A ) A (r x ) A X A (o c ) A (2 A ) A

39 The coloured automaton of languages 2 2 A τ ε? (2 A ) A 2 A = {g g : A 2} = {L L A }

40 The coloured automaton of languages 2 2 A τ ε? (2 A ) A accepting states: ε?(l) = 1 ε L transitions: τ(l)(a) = L a = {w A a w L}

41 Transitions: L a La where L a = {w A a w L}. For instance, {ab} a {b} b {ɛ} b a a, b a, b Note that every state L accepts... the language L.

42 Final coalgebra semantics c 2 ε? α X X A! o c 2 A τ (o c ) A (2 A ) A o c (x) = the language accepted by x

43 Final coalgebra semantics: observability c 2 ε? α X X A o c 2 A τ (o c ) A (2 A ) A o c = the observability map if o c is injective then (X, c, α) is called observable

44 Example b b x y a b a a z reachable: y = x aa z = x a not observable: o c (y) = o c (z) = 1 + {a, b} a and so: not minimal

45 Minimality 1 x c ε σ A r x X α o c 2 ε? 2 A τ (A ) A X A (2 A ) A minimal = reachable + observable That is, r x surjective and o c injective.

46 Synthesis Given a language L 2 A, find minimal accepting L: ε σ 1 A r x (X, x, c, α) x X α c o c 2 2 A τ ε? (A ) A X A (2 A ) A o c (x) = L

47 Synthesis: finding a man in the middle ε 1 L A r L = o L 2 A ε? L 2 r L (w) = o L (w) = L w = {v A w v L}

48 Synthesis: finding a man in the middle ε 1 L A r L 2 A ε? L 2 r L (v) = r L (w) iff u A, vu L wu L i.e., ker(r L ) = Myhill-Nerode equivalence

49 Synthesis by epi-mono factorisation ε 1 L A e A /ker(r L ) L m 2 A 2 ε? r L = m e reachable: e is surjective observable: m is injective hence: A /ker(r L ) = minimal!

50 Synthesis by epi-mono factorisation ε 1 A L L L 2 A 2 ε? A /ker(r L ) = L = { Lw w A } Myhill-Nerode meet Brzozowski

52 4. The duality of reachability and observability with an application to Brzozowski s minimization algorithm cf. paper: Algebra-coalgebra duality in Brzozowski s minimization algorithm Bonchi, Bonsangue, Hansen, Panangaden, Rutten, Silva ACM Transactions on Computational Logic (TOCL) 2013 contains various generalisations (Moore, weighted, probabilistic)

53 Recall: reachability and observability 1 x c ε σ A r x X α o c 2 ε? 2 A τ (A ) A X A (2 A ) A if r x is surjective then (X, x, α) is called reachable if o c is injective then (X, c, α) is called observable minimal = reachable + observable

54 Reversing automata 1 x ε A r X σ α (A ) A X A 2 ( ) 2 X 2 2 x 2 ε 2 r 2 A 2 σ 2 α (2 X ) A (2 A ) A 2 ( ) = contravariant powerset functor (2 X, 2 α ) = deterministic reverse of (X, α)

67 Bisimulation relations on automata X α X A R X X is a bisimulation: (x, y) R, a A : (x a, y a ) R where x a = α(x)(a) y a = α(y)(a)

68 ... on coloured automata c 2 X α X A R X X is a bisimulation if, for all (x, y) R, a A : (x a, y a ) R and c(x) = c(y)

69 Bisimulations on languages 2 ε? 2 A τ (2 A ) A R 2 A 2 A is a bisimulation if, for all (K, L) R, a A : (K a, L a ) R and ε K ε L

70 Bisimulations on languages R 2 A 2 A is a bisimulation if, for all (K, L) R, a A : (K a, L a ) R and ε K ε L where we recall that K a = { w a w K } L a = { w a w L }

71 Coinduction proof principle By the finality of 2 A, we have: (K, L) R, bisimulation K = L

72 Example: Arden s Rule We will prove Arden s Rule: L = KL + M ε K L = K M by coinduction.

73 Arden s Rule: L = K M? Assume L = KL + M ε K Is { ( L, K M ) } a bisimulation? Well... L a = (KL + M) a = K a L + M a (K M) a = K a K M + M a... almost: it is a bisimulation-up-to-congruence. {( UL + V, UK M + V ) U, V 2 A } is a bisimulation L = K M, by coinduction! Exercise: check details in the paper.

74 Arden s Rule: L = K M? Assume L = KL + M ε K Is { ( L, K M ) } a bisimulation? Well... L a = (KL + M) a = K a L + M a (K M) a = K a K M + M a... almost: it is a bisimulation-up-to-congruence. {( UL + V, UK M + V ) U, V 2 A } is a bisimulation L = K M, by coinduction! Exercise: check details in the paper.

77 6. Duality between equations and coequations - defining classes of (non-pointed, non-coloured) automata - words and languages become here tools

78 Our scene again 1 x c ε σ A r x X α o c 2 ε? 2 A τ (A ) A X A (2 A ) A Sets of equations: quotients of (A, ε, σ) Sets of coequations: subautomata of (2 A, ε?, τ)

79 Equations and satisfaction a set of equations = bisimulation equivalence E A A (X, x, α) = E (v, w) E, x v = x w (X, α) = E x : 1 X, (X, x, α) = E

80 Equations: example (Z, x, γ) = b x a b y a (Z, x, γ) = {b = ε, ab = ε, aa = a} Notation: we use (i) v = w instead of (v, w) (ii) shorthand for the induced bisimulation equivalence

81 Equations: example (Z, y, γ) = b x a b y a (Z, y, γ) = {a = ε, ba = ε, bb = b}

82 Coequations and satisfaction a set of coequations = a subautomaton D 2 A (X, c, α) = D x X, o c (x) D (X, α) = D c : X 2, (X, c, α) = D

83 Coequations: example (Z, c, γ) = b x a b y a where c(x) = 1, c(y) = 0. b a image(o c ) = (a b) b a (a b) + (Z, c, γ) = {(a b), (a b) + }

88 free(x, α) = A /Eq(X, α) ε 1 A r x x:1 X X ε 1 A r x free(x, α) where we define free(x, α) im(r) = A /Eq(X, α) with Eq(X, α) ker(r) Eq(X, α) = largest set of equations satisfied by (X, α)

89 cofree(x, α) = coeq(x, α) Σ c:x 2 X ĉ 2 ĉ 2 ε? ε? o o 2 A cofree(x, α) 2 A where we define cofree(x, α) ΣX/ker(o) and coeq(x, α) image(o) = cofree(x, α) coeq(x, α) = smallest set of coequations satisfied by (X, α)

90 Equations: example a (Z, γ) = b x b y a (Z, x, γ) = {b = ε, ab = ε, aa = a} (Z, y, γ) = {a = ε, ba = ε, bb = b} Taking the intersection gives Eq(Z, γ) = {aa = a, bb = b, ab = b, ba = a} the largest set of equations satisfied by (Z, γ).

91 Coequations: example (Z, γ) = b x a b y a a, b coeq(z, γ) = a, b A b (a b) a b b (b a) + a This is the smallest set of coequations satisfied by (Z, γ). b a (a b) + a (b a)
