Boolean Grammars Are Closed Under Inverse Gsm Mappings

Abstract:

It is proved that for every Boolean grammar <i>G</i> and for every generalized sequential machine <i>M</i>, the set <i>M</i><sup>-1</sup>(<i>L</i>(<i>G</i>)) of pre-images of words generated by <i>G</i> is generated by a Boolean grammar, which can be effectively constructed. Furthermore, if <i>G</i> is unambiguous, the constructed grammar is unambiguous as well. These results extend to conjunctive grammars.
