Automata Presenting Structures: A Survey of the Finite String Case
The Bulletin of Symbolic Logic 14 (2):169 - 209 (2008)
| Abstract | A structure has a (finite-string) automatic presentation if the elements of its domain can be named by finite strings in such a way that the coded domain and the coded atomic operations are recognised by synchronous multitape automata. Consequently, every structure with an automatic presentation has a theory. The problems surveyed here include the classification of classes of structures with automatic presentations, the complexity of the isomorphism problem, and the relationship between definability and recognisability | |||||||||
