Closures in Formal Languages and Kuratowski's Theorem (2009)

Brzozowski, J., Grant, E., Shallit, J.

A famous theorem of Kuratowski states that in a topological space, at most 14 distinct sets can be produced by repeatedly applying the operations of closure and complement to a given set. We...

Closures in Formal Languages: Concatenation, Separation, and Algorithms (2009)

Brzozowski, J., Grant, E., Shallit, J.
