On the Independence Number of the Prime-Coprime Graph of a Finite Group

The prime-coprime graph $Θ(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the simple graph with vertex set $G$, where two distinct elements are adjacent whenever the greatest common divisor of their orders is either $1$ or a prime. We characterize all finite groups $G$ for which $Θ(G)$ is a split graph. We establish a general lower bound for the independence number of $Θ(G)$ of an arbitrary finite group $G$. Moreover, we explicitly compute the independence number of $Θ(G)$ for several distinguished families of finite groups, including cyclic, dihedral, dicyclic, and semidihedral groups.

$L$-Primitive Words in Submonoids

This work considers a natural generalization of primitivity with respect to a language. Given a language $L$, a nonempty word $w$ is said to be $L$-primitive if $w$ is not a proper power of any word in $L$. After ascertaining the number of primitive words in submonoids of a free monoid, the work proceeds to count $L$-primitive words in submonoids of a free monoid. The work also studies the distribution of $L$-primitive words in certain subsets of free monoids.

Syntactic Complexity of Circular Semi-Flower Automata

We investigate the syntactic complexity of certain types of finitely generated submonoids of a free monoid. In fact, we consider those submonoids which are accepted by circular semi-flower automata (CSFA). Here, we show that the syntactic complexity of CSFA with at most one `branch point going in' (bpi) is linear. Further, we prove that the syntactic complexity of $n$-state CSFA with two bpis over a binary alphabet is $2n(n+1)$.

The Holonomy Decomposition of Circular Semi-Flower Automata

Eilenberg's holonomy decomposition is useful to ascertain the structural properties of automata. Using this method, Egri-Nagy and Nehaniv characterized the absence of certain types of cycles in automata. In the direction of studying the structure of automata with cycles, this work focuses on a special class of semi-flower automata and establish the holonomy decompositions of certain circular semi-flower automata.

A Sufficient Condition for Hanna Neumann Property of Submonoids of a Free Monoid

Using automata-theoretic approach, Giambruno and Restivo have investigated on the intersection of two finitely generated submonoids of the free monoid over a finite alphabet. In particular, they have obtained Hanna Neumann property for a special class of submonoids generated by finite prefix sets. This work continues their work and provides a sufficient condition for Hanna Neumann property for the entire class of submonoids generated by finite prefix sets. In this connection, a general rank formula for the submonoids which are accepted by semi-flower automata is also obtained.

The Rank and Hanna Neumann Property of Some Submonoids of a Free Monoid

This work aims at further investigations on the work of Giambruno and Restivo to find the rank of the intersection of two finitely generated submonoids of a free monoid. In this connection, we obtain the rank of a finitely generated submonoid of a free monoid that is accepted by semi-flower automaton with two bpi's. Further, when the product automaton of two deterministic semi-flower automata with a unique bpi is semi-flower with two bpi's, we obtain a sufficient condition on the product automaton in order to satisfy the Hanna Neumann property.
