Cerny-Starke conjecture from the sixties of XX century | A.N. Trahtman
; | Date: |
13 Mar 2020 | Abstract: | A word $w$ of letters on edges of underlying graph $Gamma$ of deterministic
finite automaton (DFA) is called synchronizing if $w$ sends all states of the
automaton to a unique state.
J. v{C}erny discovered in 1964 a sequence of $n$-state complete DFA
possessing a minimal synchronizing word of length $(n-1)^2$. The hypothesis,
well known today as v{C}erny conjecture, claims that $(n-1)^2$ is a precise
upper bound on the length of such a word over alphabet $Sigma$ of letters on
edges of $Gamma$ for every complete $n$-state DFA. The hypothesis was
formulated distinctly in 1966 by Starke.
A special classes of matrices induced by words in the alphabet of labels on
edges of the underlying graph of DFA are used to prove the conjecture. | Source: | arXiv, 2003.6177 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
