Question
Consider the languages L and L: L = {ww | w ∈ {a,b}∗}, all even-length strings of as and bs whose first and second halves are equal, and its complement L = {w | w ∈ {a,b}∗ ∧ w 6∈ L}, all strings of as and bs that are not in L. One of these languages is a CFL and the other is not.
Either show that L or L̅ is context free by giving (design and formalize) either a PDA that recognizes it, or a CFG that generates it. Explain precisely why your PDA or CFG generates exactly L or L̅ .

- For any string w 6=/ E, the principal suffix of w is the string resulting by removing the first symbol from w. We will denote this string by ps(w). For any language L, define ps(L) := {ps(w) : w ∈ L ∧ w 6=/ E}. Show that if L is regular, then ps(L) is regular. (The underlying alphabet is arbitrary.) Show by giving rules to transform a regex for L into a regex for ps(L).arrow_forwardon A language L is called slithy if it contains at least two strings and has the following property: For every two strings x, y in L such that |x|< lyl, the string obtained by taking the first letter of y and inserting it at the start of x is also in L. For example, if L contains aaa and baaba, then it must also contain the string baaa. Prove by contradiction that every slithy language contains two strings of the same length.arrow_forwardComputer Science Suppose L ⊆{a, b}∗ is defined as follows: Λ∈L; for every x and y in L, the strings axb, bxa, and x yare in L. Show that L =AEqB , the language of all strings x in {a, b}∗ satisfying n_a (x) =n_b (x).arrow_forward
- Let regular language L1 recognized by DFA (Q1,Σ,δ1,s1,F1) and regular language L2 recognized by DFA (Q2,Σ,δ2,s2,F2). We will construct a product DFA as the quintuple (Q,Σ,δ,s,F) where: •Q=Q1×Q2•For allx∈Σ and (q1,q2)∈Q1×Q2,δ((q1,q2),x) = (δ1(q1,x),δ2(q2,x))•s= (s1,s2) DetermineFso that the product DFA recognizes: (i)L1∪L2(ii)L1∩L2(iii)L1\L2Based on your choice for F, for each case, provide a detailed proof why the product DFA recognizes each of the mentioned languages. Conclude that in-tersection of two regular languages is a regular language and set-theoretic dif-ference of two regular languages is regular.arrow_forwardQuestion 5 Let I be the set of all even length binary strings. (So I is decidable.) Give an example of a language K ⊆ I with K undecidable. Here you need to define the set K and state your reasoning why the K you define is undecidable.
