The solution comes from a description of the infinite sequences having an infinite A-orbit using a deterministic finite-state acceptor. This acceptor can also be used to decide whether the bounded automaton acts level-transitively.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-12-14T18:14:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20F10", "20M35", "F.4.m" ], "keywords": [ "bounded automaton groups", "finiteness", "deterministic finite-state acceptor", "solution comes", "bounded automaton acts" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
