3. www.ishuchita.comChapter 2 Finite Automata3 Finite Automata (FA) CONTROL UNIT INPUT TAPE TAPE HEAD Finite set of states Move to the right one cell at a time Store input of the DFA Can be of any length Start state Final state(s) is in exactly one state at a time

4. www.ishuchita.comChapter 2 Finite Automata4 What does an FA do? Read an input string from tape Determine if the input string is in a language Determine if the answer for the problem is “YES” or “NO” for the given input on the tape

5. www.ishuchita.comChapter 2 Finite Automata5 How does an FA work? At the beginning, –an FA is in the start state (initial state) –its tape head points at the first cell For each move, FA –reads the symbol under its tape head –changes its state (according to the transition function) to the next state determined by the symbol read from the tape and its current state –move its tape head to the right one cell

6. www.ishuchita.comChapter 2 Finite Automata6 When does an FA stop working? When it reads all symbols on the tape Then, it gives an answer if the input is in the specific language: –Answer “YES” if its last state is a final state –Answer “NO” if its last state is not a final state

We say ( q 0,  0 ) yields ( q 1,  1 ) in one step, denoted by ( q 0,  0 )  M ( q 1,  1 ), if  ( q 0, a ) = q 1, and  0 =a  1, for some a . When a configuration yields another configuration, the first symbol of the string is read and discarded from the configuration. Once a symbol in an input string is read, it does not effect how the DFA works in the future.

For (a), let  L(M A ). From the definition of strings accepted by an FA, there is a state f A in F A such that ( s A,  ) |-* MA ( f A, ε). Because  A , (s A,  ) |-* M (f A, ε) also. Because s A  (s,ε), (s,  ) |- M (s A,  ). Thus, (s,  ) |- M (s A,  ) |-* M (f A, ε). Because f A  F,  L(M). Similarly for (b). s sAsA sBsB ε ε

Because  L(M A ), there exists no f A in F A such that (s A,  ) |-* MA (f A,ε). Because  L(M B ), there exists no f B in F B such that (s B,  ) |-* MB (f B, ε). Since there is no transition between states in Q A and Q B in M, there exists no state f in F=F A  F B such that (s,  ) |- M (s A,  ) |-* M (f A, ε) or (s,  ) |- M (s B,  ) |-* M (f B, ε). That is,  L(M). Thus, L(M) = L(M A )  L(M B ). s sAsA sBsB ε ε

L 1  L 2 = (  L 1  L 2 ) By the closure property under complementation, there are FA accepting  L 1 and  L 2. By the closure property under union, there is an FA accepting  L 1  L 2. By the closure property under complementation, there is an FA accepting(  L 1  L 2 ). Thus, the class of languages accepted by FA is closed under intersection.
