The topics in the present book are ratherdifferent. For example, automorphism groups of automata and thepartially ordered sets of automata are systematicallydiscussed. Moreover, some operations on languages and special classesof regular languages associated with deterministic andnondeterministic directable automata are dealt with. The book isself-contained and hence does not require any knowledge of automataand formal languages. ER -
