2 Push-Down Automt Regulr expressions re string genertors they tell us how to generte ll strings in lnguge L. Finite Automt (DFA, NFA) re string cceptors they tell us if specific string w is in L. CFGs re string genertors Are there string cceptors for Context-Free lnguges? YES! Push-down utomt Sept2011 Theory of Computer Science 2

3 Push-Down Automt DFAs ccept regulr lnguges. Now, we wnt to design mchines similr to DFAs tht will ccept context-free lnguges. These mchines will need to e more powerful. To hndle lnguge like { n n n 0}, the mchine needs to rememer the numer of s. To do this, we use stck. A push-down utomton (PDA) is essentilly n NFA with stck.

4 Push-Down Automt A PDA hs some memory, ut not generl purpose, rndom-ccess memory. It uses stck, which hs two opertions Push nd Pop. Using the stck, it llows us to: Count Mtch strings Sept2011 Theory of Computer Science 4

5 Building PDA stte control push $ red 0 push x red 1 pop x red 1 pop x pop $ L = {0 n 1 n : n 1} Rememer ech 0 y pushing x onto the stck When we see 1, we pop n x from the stck We wnt to ccept when we hit the stck ottom $ = specil mrker for ottom

6 A PDA in ction stte control push $ red 0 push x red 1 pop x red 1 pop x pop $ input L = {0 n 1 n : n 1} $ stck x x x

7 Nottion for PDAs push $ red 0 push x red 1 pop x red 1 pop x pop $ q 0 q 1 q 2 q 3, / $ 1, x /, $ / 0, / x 1, x / red, pop / push

8 Definition of PDA A pushdown utomton (PDA) is sextuple (Q,,,, q 0, F) where: Q is finite set of sttes; is the input lphet; is the stck lphet q 0 in Q is the strt stte; F Q is set of finl sttes; is the trnsition function : Q ( {}) ( {}) susets of Q ( {}) PDA ccepts w if we end up in finl stte with n empty stck

9 Exmple q 0 q 1 q 2 q 3, / $ 0, / x 1, x /, $ / 1, x / = {0, 1} = {$, x} (q 0,, ) = {(q 1, $)} (q 0,, $) = (q 0,, x) = (q 0, 0, ) =... : Q ( {}) ( {}) susets of Q ( {}) stte input symol pop symol stte push symol

10 The lnguge of PDA A PDA is nondeterministic Multiple trnsitions on sme pop/input llowed Trnsitions my ut do not hve to push or pop The lnguge of PDA is the set of ll strings in S* tht cn led the PDA to n ccepting stte

11 Trnsitions Let ((p,, β), (q, γ)) Δ e trnsition. It mens tht we Move from stte p. Red from the tpe, Pop the string β from the stck, Move to stte q, Push string γ onto the stck. The first three (p,, β), re input. The lst two (q, γ) re output.

12 Trnsitions We will drw it s or If t q 0 (p), with next input symol () nd top of stck x (), then cn consume (), pop x (), push y () onto stck nd move to q 1 (q)

13 Pushing nd Popping When we push β, we push the symols of β s we red them right to left. When we push the string c, we push c, then push, then push. When we pop γ, we pop the symols of γ s we red them from left to right (reverse order). When we pop the string c, we pop, then pop, then pop c.

14 Pushing nd Popping Thus, if we push the string c nd then pop it, we will get ck c, not c. If we wnted to reverse the order, we would use three seprte trnsitions: Push Push Push c

15 Configurtions A configurtion fully descries the current stte of the PDA. The current stte p. The remining input w. The current stck contents. Thus, configurtion is triple (p, w, ) (K, *, * ).

16 Computtions A configurtion (p, w, ) yields configurtion (p', w', ') in one step, denoted (p, w, ) (p', w', '), if there is trnsition ((p,, ), (p', )) Δ such tht w = w', =, nd ' = for some *. The reflexive, trnsitive closure of is denoted *.

17 Accepting Strings After processing the string on the tpe, The PDA is in either finl or nonfinl stte, nd The stck is either empty or not empty. The input string is ccepted if The ending stte is finl stte, nd The stck is empty. Tht is, the string w * is ccepted if (s, w, e) * (f, e, e) for some f F.

18 Accepting Strings One my define cceptnce y finl stte only. The input is ccepted if nd only if the lst stte is finl stte, regrdless of whether the stck is empty. One my define cceptnce y empty stck only. The input is ccepted if nd only if the stck is empty once the input is processed, regrdless of which stte the PDA is in.

19 Exmple of PDA Run the following PDA on the input string.

20 Exmple of PDA The steps in the processing re (s,, e) (p,, A) (p,, AA) (p,, AAA) (p,, AA) (p,, A) (q, e, e).

21 The Lnguge of PDA The lnguge of PDA A is L(A) = {w * A ccepts w}. Wht is the lnguge of the PDA in the previous exmple?

22 Exmple of PDA Wht is the lnguge of the following PDA?

23 Exmples of PDAs Let = {, }. Design PDA tht ccepts the lnguge {wcw R w * }. Design PDA tht ccepts the lnguge {ww R w * }.

24 Exmples of PDAs Design PDA whose lnguge is { m n 0 m < n}. Design PDA whose lnguge is { m n 0 n < m}.

25 Exmples of PDAs Design PDA whose lnguge is { m n c n d m m 0, n 0}. Design PDA whose lnguge is { m m c n d n m 0, n 0}. Design PDA whose lnguge is { m n c p d q m + n = p + q}. Design PDA whose lnguge is { m n c k m = n or m = k}.
