For a finite commutative ring with unit the authors determine which linear transformations M: RN—+RN can be realized by finite automata.
Abstract
Let R be a nonempty set, let N consist of all non-negative rational integers, and denote by RN the set of all functions on N to R. If R is a ring, a map M: R"—>P^ is linear if M(rxfx+r2f2)=rx(Mfx) +r2(Mf2) for rx, r2 in R, fx, f2 in RN. For a finite commutative ring with unit we determine which linear transformations M: RN—+RN can be realized by finite automata. More precisely, let A, B he finite nonempty sets. A map M: AN—>BN is an automaton transformation if there exists a finite set Q, maps Mq: A X£>—><2, Mb: A XQ-*B, elements h in B, q in Q such that corresponding to each/ in AN there exists an h in QN satisfying

Learning with limited memory: Bayesianism vs heuristics

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors identify two features of the simplified analysis: information stickiness (ignoring information) and rule stickiness(ignoring small differences in the environment) and identify two simplifications in the analysis that enable them to obtain a satisfactory outcome.

Infinitude of Primes Using Formal Languages

TL;DR: In this article, a certain class of formal languages, called regular languages, are discussed and a set of rules specific to them are defined. But they are not defined in this paper.

Duality of lattices associated to left and right quotients

TL;DR: In this article , the authors associate lattices to the sets of unions and intersections of left and right quotients of a regular language and give necessary and sufficient conditions for these lattice to have maximal possible complexity.
