True or False Statements and provide proof with your answer.

a. Suppose L is the empty language, then L only includes "epsilon", Furthermore, "epsilon" is the "identity" for concatenation since when concatenated with any string it yields the other string as a result. That is, for any string w, (epsilon)w = w(epsilon) = w.

 

b. Suppose L us a regular language. Then, L is a set of stings satisfying a certain condition or conditions. So, L is unique. On the other hand, there can be more than one DFA (e,g,, two DFAs) accepting L.

 

c. Consider finite antomata and regular expressions. The regular expression " 1{}*(0+1) " can be simplified to " 1(0+!) ".

 

d. Consider the following language L, L = {ab, aabb, aaabbb, aaaabbbb, ......}. Note that L includes all strings of a's followed by the same number of b's. (Assume Sigma = {a,b}). Then, we can design the DFA for accepting L.

 

e. If E and F are regular expressions, then E + F is a regular expression denoting the union of L(E) and L(F). That is, L(E+F) = L(E) U L(F).

 

f. If L U M is NOT a regular language, then it is NOT true that L and M are regular languages.'

 

g. It is possible to convert any NFA to a DFA that accepts the same language.

 

h. The following four are equivalent as different notations for the same class of languages known as a regular language: Regular expressions, DFA, NFA, epsilon-NFA.

 

i. Consider the following language L: L = { 0^n 1^n 2^n | n >= 1}. Examples of string in L include {012, 001122, 000111222, ...}. Then, we can use "pumping lemma for regular languages" to prove that L is not a regular language.

 

j. {epsilon, 01, 0011, 000111, ...} is the language of all strings of n's 0's followed by n 1's, for some n > 0.
