Composes two NFTs (lhs || rhs; read as “rhs after lhs”).

This function computes the composition of two NFTs, lhs and rhs, by aligning their synchronization levels. Transitions between two synchronization levels are ordered as follows: first the transitions of lhs, then the transitions of rhs followed by next synchronization level (if exists). By default, synchronization levels are projected out from the resulting NFT.

Composes two NFTs (lhs || rhs; read as “rhs after lhs”).

This function computes the composition of two NFTs, lhs and rhs, by aligning their synchronization levels.

Nft complement(const Nft &aut, const utils::OrdVector<Symbol> &symbols, const ParameterMap &params = {{"algorithm", "classical"}, {"minimize", "false"}})¶

Compute automaton accepting complement of aut.

This overloaded version complements over an already created ordered set of symbols instead of an alphabet.

- ”algorithm”: “naive”, “antichains” (Default: “antichains”)

Returns:

bool are_equivalent(const Nft &lhs, const Nft &rhs, const Alphabet *alphabet, JumpMode jump_mode = JumpMode::RepeatSymbol, const ParameterMap &params = {{"algorithm", "antichains"}})¶

Perform equivalence check of two NFTs: lhs and rhs.

Parameters:

lhs – [in] First automaton to concatenate.
rhs – [in] Second automaton to concatenate.
alphabet – [in] Alphabet of both NFTs to compute with.
jump_mode – [in] Specifies if the symbol on a jump transition (a transition with a length greater than 1) is interpreted as a sequence repeating the same symbol or as a single instance of the symbol followed by a sequence of DONT_CARE symbols.

bool are_equivalent(const Nft &lhs, const Nft &rhs, JumpMode JumpMode = JumpMode::RepeatSymbol, const ParameterMap &params = {{"algorithm", "antichains"}})¶

Perform equivalence check of two NFTs: lhs and rhs.

The current implementation of Nft does not accept input alphabet. For this reason, an alphabet has to be created from all transitions each time an operation on alphabet is called. When calling this function, the alphabet has to be computed first.

Hence, this function is less efficient than its alternative taking already defined alphabet as its parameter. That way, alphabet has to be computed only once, as opposed to the current ad-hoc construction of the alphabet. The use of the alternative with defined alphabet should be preferred.

Parameters:

lhs – [in] First automaton to concatenate.
rhs – [in] Second automaton to concatenate.
jump_mode – [in] Specifies if the symbol on a jump transition (a transition with a length greater than 1) is interpreted as a sequence repeating the same symbol or as a single instance of the symbol followed by a sequence of DONT_CARE symbols.
params – [in] Optional parameters to control the equivalence check algorithm:
- ”algorithm”: “naive”, “antichains” (Default: “antichains”)

Returns:

True if lhs and rhs are equivalent, false otherwise.

Nft revert(const Nft &aut)¶

Nft fragile_revert(const Nft &aut)¶

Nft simple_revert(const Nft &aut)¶

Nft somewhat_simple_revert(const Nft &aut)¶

Nft invert_levels(const Nft &aut, JumpMode jump_mode = JumpMode::RepeatSymbol)¶

Inverts the levels of the given transducer aut.

The function inverts the levels of the transducer, i.e., the level 0 becomes the last level, level 1 becomes the second last level, and so on.

Parameters:

aut – [in] The transducer for inverting levels.
jump_mode – [in] Specifies if the symbol on a jump transition (a transition with a length greater than 1) is interpreted as a sequence repeating the same symbol or as a single instance of the symbol followed by a sequence of DONT_CARE symbols.

Returns:

A new transducer with inverted levels.

Nft remove_epsilon(const Nft &aut, Symbol epsilon = EPSILON)¶

Remove simple epsilon transitions.

Simple epsilon transitions are the transitions of the form q0 -epsilon-> q1 -epsilon-> q2 -epsilon-> … -epsilon-> qn where q0 and qn are level 0 states, the states in-between are states with level 1, 2, …, num_of_levels and for each qi, for 0 < i < n, there is only 1 transition going to qi (the transition qi-1 -epsilon-> qi) and only 1 transition going from qi (the transition qi -epsilon -> qi+1). This means that if there was some state p0 going with epsilon to q1, these to epsilon transitions would not be removed.

Furthermore, this assumes that the NFT aut does not have jump transitions.

The resulting automaton has the same number of states as aut, just the transitions can change. It is recommended to run trim() after this function.

Parameters:

aut – NFT without jump transitions
epsilon – symbol representing epsilon

Returns:

NFT whose language is same as aut but does not contain simple epsilon transitions

Typedefs

using Transition = mata::nfa::Transition ¶: A single transition in Delta represented as a triple(source, symbol, target).

using Move = mata::nfa::Move ¶: Move from a StatePost for a single source state, represented as a pair of symbol and target state target.

using SymbolPost = mata::nfa::SymbolPost ¶

Structure represents a post of a single symbol: a set of target states in transitions.

A set of SymbolPost, called StatePost, is describing the automata transitions from a single source state.

using StatePost = mata::nfa::StatePost ¶

A data structure representing possible transitions over different symbols from a source state.

It is an ordered vector containing possible SymbolPost (i.e., pair of symbol and target states). SymbolPosts in the vector are ordered by symbols in SymbolPosts.

using SynchronizedExistentialSymbolPostIterator = mata::nfa::SynchronizedExistentialSymbolPostIterator ¶: Specialization of utils::SynchronizedExistentialIterator for iterating over SymbolPosts.

using Delta = mata::nfa::Delta ¶

Delta is a data structure for representing transition relation.

Transition is represented as a triple Trans(source state, symbol, target state). Move is the part (symbol, target state), specified for a single source state. Its underlying data structure is vector of StatePost classes. Each index to the vector corresponds to one source state, that is, a number for a certain state is an index to the vector of state posts. Transition relation (delta) in Mata stores a set of transitions in a four-level hierarchical structure: Delta, StatePost, SymbolPost, and a set of target states. A vector of ‘StatePost’s indexed by a source states on top, where the StatePost for a state ‘q’ (whose number is ‘q’ and it is the index to the vector of ‘StatePost’s) stores a set of ‘Move’s from the source state ‘q’. Namely, ‘StatePost’ has a vector of ‘SymbolPost’s, where each ‘SymbolPost’ stores a symbol ‘a’ and a vector of target states of ‘a’-moves from state ‘q’. ‘SymbolPost’s are ordered by the symbol, target states are ordered by the state number.

Nft parse_from_mata(const std::filesystem::path &nft_file)¶

Parse NFA from the mata format in a file.

Parameters:

nft_file – Path to the file containing NFA in mata format.

Throws:

std::runtime_error – nft_file does not exist.

Nft from_nfa_with_levels_zero(const nfa::Nfa &nfa, size_t num_of_levels = DEFAULT_NUM_OF_LEVELS, bool explicit_transitions = true, std::optional<Symbol> next_levels_symbol = {})¶

Create Nft from nfa with specified num_of_levels.

This function takes transition from nfa as transitions between zero level and the first level of NFT. All transition between the remaining levels are created based on the function parameters: explicit_transitions and next_levels_symbol.

Parameters:

nfa – NFA to create NFT from.
num_of_levels – Number of levels of NFT.
explicit_transitions – If true, the transitions between levels are explicit (i.e., no jump transitions, except for the epsilon transitions over all levels).)
next_levels_symbol – If specified, it is used as a symbol on transitions after the first level. If not specified, the symbol of the transition is reused.

Returns:

NFT representing nfa with num_of_levels number of levels.

Nft from_nfa_with_levels_advancing(mata::nfa::Nfa nfa, size_t num_of_levels)¶

Creates Nft from nfa with specified num_of_levels automatically.

It assumes that nfa is a representation of an nft without jump transitions. It assign to each state the level based on the distance from the initial state. For example, if there are 2 levels, the initial states are level 0, the successor states are level 1, the states after that level 0, etc.

If you only have one level, then it is more efficient to call the constructor that takes Nfa as input.

Throws:: std::runtime_error – if some state should be assigned two different levels or if the final state is not at level 0.
