3 13-1: CFG Review G = (V,Σ,R,S) V = Set of symbols, both terminals & non-terminals Σ V set of terminals (alphabet for the language being described) R ((V Σ) V ) Set of rules S (V Σ) Start symbol
4 13-2: Unrestricted Grammars G = (V,Σ,R,S) V = Set of symbols, both terminals & non-terminals Σ V set of terminals (alphabet for the language being described) R (V (V Σ)V V ) Set of rules S (V Σ) Start symbol
5 13-3: Unrestricted Grammars R (V (V Σ)V V ) Set of rules In an Unrestricted Grammar, the left-hand side of a rule contains a string of terminals and non-terminals (at least one of which must be a non-terminal) Rules are applied just like CFGs: Find a substring that matches the LHS of some rule Replace with the RHS of the rule
6 13-4: Unrestricted Grammars To generate a string with an Unrestricted Grammar: Start with the initial symbol While the string contains at least one non-terminal: Find a substring that matches the LHS of some rule Replace that substring with the RHS of the rule
7 13-5: Unrestricted Grammars Example: Grammar for L = {a n b n c n : n > 0} First, generate (ABC) Next, non-deterministically rearrange string Finally, convert to terminals (A a, B b, etc.), ensuring that string was reordered to form a b c

15 13-13: Unrestricted Grammars L UG is the set of languages that can be described by an Unrestricted Grammar: L UG = {L : Unrestricted Grammar G,L[G] = L} Claim: L UG = L re To Prove: Prove L UG L re Prove L re L UG
16 13-14: L UG L re Given any Unrestricted Grammar G, we can create a Turing Machine M that semi-decides L[G]
17 13-15: L UG L re Given any Unrestricted Grammar G, we can create a Turing Machine M that semi-decides L[G] Two tape machine: One tape stores the input, unchanged Second tape implements the derivation Check to see if the derived string matches the input, if so accept, if not run forever
18 13-16: L UG L re To implement the derivation on the second tape: Write the initial symbol on the second tape Non-deterministically move the read/write head to somewhere on the tape Non-deterministically decide which rule to apply Scan the current position of the read/write head, to make sure the LHS of the rule is at that location Remove the LHS of the rule from the tape, and splice in the RHS

52 13-50: L re L UG Given any Turing Machine M that semi-decides the language L, we can create an Unrestricted Grammar G such that L[G] = L Will assume that all Turing Machines accept in the same configuration: (h, ) Not a major restriction why?
53 13-51: L re L UG Given any Turing Machine M that semi-decides the language L, we can create an Unrestricted Grammar G such that L[G] = L Will assume that all Turing Machines accept in the same configuration: (h, ) Not a major restriction why? Add a tape erasing machine right before the accepting state, that erases the tape, leaving the read/write head at the beginning of the tape
54 13-52: L re L UG Given any Turing Machine M that semi-decides the language L, we can create an Unrestricted Grammar G such that L[G] = L Grammar: Generates a string Turing Machine: Works from string to accept state Two formalisms work in different directions Simulating Turing Machine with a Grammar can be difficult..
55 13-53: L re L UG Two formalisms work in different directions Simulate a Turing Machine in reverse! Each partial derivation represents a configuration Each rule represents a backwards step in Turing Machine computation
56 13-54: L re L UG Given a TM M, we create a Grammar G: Language for G: Everything in Σ M Everything in K M Start symbol S Symbols and

62 13-60: L re L UG For each element in δ M of the form: ((Q 1,a),(Q 2, )) Add the rule a Q 2 aq 1 (undoing moving to the right onto unused tape)
63 13-61: L re L UG Finally, add the rules: S h Q s ǫ ǫ
64 13-62: L re L UG If the Turing machine can move from w to h Then the Grammar can transform Q h to Q s w Then, remove Q s and to leave w
