Equivalence of nfas, Theory of Computation

Assignment Help:

It is not hard to see that ε-transitions do not add to the accepting power of the model. The underlying idea is that whenever an ID (q, σ  v) directly computes another (p, v) via a path that includes some number of ε-transitions (before the σ-transition, after it or both), we can get the same effect by extending the transition relation to include a σ-transition directly from q to v. So, in the example we could add ‘a' edges from 0 to 1 (accounting for the path 0 2072_Equivalence of NFAs.png 3) and from 1 to 3 (accounting for the path 1 27_Equivalence of NFAs1.png 3) and ‘b' edges from 1 to 3 (accounting for the path 1 1649_Equivalence of NFAs2.png  3), from 3 to 2 (accounting for the path 3 1088_Equivalence of NFAs3.png2), and from 1 to 2 (accounting for the  path 1 2144_Equivalence of NFAs4.png2), Note that in each of these cases this corresponds to extending δ(q, σ) to include all states in ˆ δ(q, σ). The remaining effect of the ε-transition from 0 to 2 is the fact that the automaton accepts ‘ε'. This can be obtained, of course, by simply adding 0 to F. Formalizing this  we get a lemma.
