A sequence of characters.

A set of strings.

A machine that can accept or reject strings based on a set of rules.

A finite automaton that can only be in one state at a time.

A finite automaton that can be in multiple states at once.

A language that can be recognized by a finite automaton.

The operation that combines two languages to create a new language containing all the strings from both.

The set of all strings created by concatenating zero or more copies of a given string.

A language is regular if and only if there exists a regular expression that describes it.

Converts a regular expression into an NFA (Nondeterministic Finite Automaton) that accepts the language defined by the regular expression.

An NFA that can have multiple start states and any number of final states.

A regular expression is a string that represents a set of strings.

Combining two languages by placing the strings of one language after the strings of the other.

Creating a new language by repeatedly concatenating strings from the original language, including the empty string.

A machine that accepts or rejects strings based on a set of rules.

A set of states that the finite automaton can transition to based on the input.

A set of symbols that the automaton can read as input.

The state where the automaton begins processing input.

An algorithm used to convert a DFA, a finite automaton with a single transition for each input symbol, into a regular expression. It involves the systematic removal of states from the GNFA until only the start and accept states are left.

A mathematical proof that demonstrates the equivalence between regular languages and regular expressions. It establishes that every regular language can be represented by a regular expression and vice versa.

A fundamental theorem in the theory of formal languages, stating that if a language is regular (i.e., can be recognized by a DFA), then there exists a pumping length 'p' such that any string in the language longer than 'p' can be divided into three parts (xyz) where 'y' can be repeated any number of times (including zero) without affecting the string's membership in the language.

The process of adding a new start state, accepting state, and transitions in a finite automaton to modify its behavior and make it easier to convert into a regular expression.

The process of removing states from a GNFA while maintaining its language recognition capabilities, eventually leaving only the start and accept states with a regular expression on the transition between them.

A language that cannot be recognized by a finite automaton.

The minimum length of a string in a language that must be divided into three parts to apply the Pumping Lemma.

The process of dividing a string into three parts (x, y, and z) that satisfy the Pumping Lemma's conditions.

The act of repeating the middle part (y) of a string multiple times to create new strings.

If you divide a string into parts x, y, and z and apply the Pumping Lemma's conditions, the resulting strings are not in the language.

A language where the number of 0s is always equal to the number of 1s.

A sequence of symbols that can be processed by a machine.

A formal proof technique to demonstrate that a language is not regular. It's based on the idea that if a language is regular, any sufficiently long string can be broken down into parts such that the middle part can be repeated any number of times without affecting the string's membership in the language.

A type of machine with limited memory in the form of a stack. This type of automata can recognize languages that are more complex than regular languages.

A language that can be generated by a context-free grammar (CFG) or recognized by a pushdown automaton (PDA). These languages are characterized by their ability to handle nested structures.

A type of grammar where the production rules do not depend on the context of the symbols being replaced. These grammars can express languages that are more complex than regular languages.

A method of proving that a language is not regular, using the pumping lemma. This method involves demonstrating that there exists a string in the language that cannot be 'pumped' without violating the language's properties.

A type of pushdown automaton that can be in only one state at a time. This type of PDA is less powerful than a non-deterministic PDA (NPDA).
