We define the Nerode reltion Σ Σ s follows: for every u, v Σ : u v w Σ : uw L vw L The Nerode reltion prtitions Σ in equivlence clsses. Theorem (Myhill-Nerode Theorem) A lnguge L is recognizble iff the Nerode reltion prtitions Σ in finitely mny equivlence clsses. [Bder, 2007]

9 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References simple DTDs DTD Document Type Definition Definition A DTD is tuple (Σ, r, P) where Σ is n lphbet, r Σ is clled the root lbel, nd P { R Σ, R Reg Σ } is finite set of so-clled productions. Nottion: D d... set of trees stisfying DTD d L(d) = [D d ]... set of string representtions of the trees in D d

10 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References simple DTDs DTD Document Type Definition Exmple A DTD which is stisfied by the tree c r b c c cn be: d = (Σ, r, P) where Σ = {r,, b, c} nd P = {r, bc + c, b c, c ε} So L(d) = {r} {cc, bccbcc} {r}.

11 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Specilized DTDs Specilized DTDs Definition (specilized DTD) A specilized DTD over Σ is tuple d = (Σ, Σ, d, µ) where Σ nd Σ re lphbets, d is DTD over Σ, nd µ: Σ Σ is mpping.

12 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Specilized DTDs Specilized DTDs Exmple Specilized DTD which is only stisfied by the tree d = (Σ, Σ, d, µ) where c r b c : c Σ = {r,, b, c}, Σ = {r, x, y, b, c}, d = (Σ, r, P), P = {r xy, x c, y bc, b c, c ε}, { α Σ if α {x, y}, : µ(α) = α otherwise.

14 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Definition We cll (specilized) DTD d strongly recognizble iff L(d) is recognizble.

15 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Exmple (non-recursive DTD) Agin consider the DTD d = (Σ, r, P) where Σ = {r,, b, c} nd P = {r, bc + c, b c, c ε} The DTD d is not recursive nd the lnguge L(d) cn be represented by the regulr expression r (cc + bccbcc) r. Hence, this DTD is strongly recognizble.

16 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Exmple (recursive DTD) Let d = (Σ, r, P) where Σ = {r, } nd P = {r, + ε}. The DTD d is obviously recursive. Moreover L(d) = {r n n r n 1}. Hence, d is not strongly recognizble.

17 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Theorem Theorem A specilized DTD is strongly recognizble iff it is non-recursive. [Segoufin & Vinu, 2002]

18 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Proof Step 1 Let d = (Σ, Σ, d, µ) be specilized DTD. Step 1: d is strongly recognizble d is non-recursive: Let d be strongly recognizble. Then there exists n FSA A which ccepts L(d).

19 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Proof Step 1 Suppose Σ is recursive with respect to d.

20 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Proof Step 1 Suppose Σ is recursive with respect to d. Then d nd d re recursive nd there exists tree t D d such tht repets on pth of t. So [t] hs the form [t] = ru 1 v 1 wv 2 u 2 r where u 1 u 2 nd v 1 v 2 re well-blnced words.

21 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Proof Step 1 Suppose Σ is recursive with respect to d. Then d nd d re recursive nd there exists tree t D d such tht repets on pth of t. So [t] hs the form [t] = ru 1 v 1 wv 2 u 2 r where u 1 u 2 nd v 1 v 2 re well-blnced words. Since is recursive we cn repet the prts v 1 nd v 2 nd the trees n > 0: [t n ] = ru 1 (v 1 ) n w(v 2 ) n u 2 r re lso in L(d ) nd A ccepts µ([t n ]).

22 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Proof Step 1 However, with the Myhill-Nerode theorem we cn show tht L(d) is not regulr: There is n infinite number of equivlence clsses of strings over Σ Σ becuse i, j 1: i j µ(ru 1 (v 1 ) i ) µ(ru 1 (v 1 ) j ).

23 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Proof Step 1 However, with the Myhill-Nerode theorem we cn show tht L(d) is not regulr: There is n infinite number of equivlence clsses of strings over Σ Σ becuse i, j 1: i j µ(ru 1 (v 1 ) i ) µ(ru 1 (v 1 ) j ). This is contrdiction to the ssumption tht L(d) is regulr nd tht A recognizes L(d), hence, d nd d cn not be recursive.

Our utomt A b for every b Σ re A α : q 0,α β

Our utomt A b for every b Σ re A β : q 0,β b b

28 Preliminries DTD Document Type Definition References Strong Vlidtion Strong Vlidtion Proof Step 2: FSA Construction α A ρ : q 0,ρ r r Now we build the trget utomton step by step. Our A 0 is equl to A ρ. The following re:
