Research Abstract |
1) We investigated the algebraic structures of automata. Especially, we introduced the notion of layers of an automaton A which forms a partially ordered set and determined all sub-automata of A. Furthermore, we established a relationship between the structure of an automaton and the set of its layers. 2) We investigated several operations on words and languages. Especially, the study of duplication closures of languages was mainly done. We showed that the K-restricted duplication closure of any context-free language becomes context-free but the K-restricted duplication closure of a regular language does not necessarily become regular. We provided some conditions for the duplication closure of a given regular language to be regular. 3) Regarding the study on the unconventional computation theory, a revised version of the Grover's algorithm was given.
