Title
Boolean algebras of unambiguous context-free languages
Abstract
Several recent works have studied subfamilies of deterministic context-free languages with good closure properties, for instance the families of input-driven or visibly pushdown lan- guages, or more generally families of languages accepted by pushdown automata whose stack height can be uniquely determined by the input word read so far. These ideas can be described as a notion of synchronization. In this paper we present an extension of synchronization to all context-free languages using graph grammars. This generalization allows one to define boolean algebras of non- deterministic but unambiguous context-free languages containing regular languages.
