Generating Synchronizing Automata with Large Reset Lengths (1404.3311v4)
Published 12 Apr 2014 in cs.FL
Abstract: We study synchronizing automata with the shortest reset words of relatively large length. First, we refine the Frankl-Pin result on the length of the shortest words of rank $m$, and the B\'eal, Berlinkov, Perrin, and Steinberg results on the length of the shortest reset words in one-cluster automata. The obtained results are useful in computation aimed in extending the class of small automata for which the \v{C}ern\'y conjecture is verified and discovering new automata with special properties regarding synchronization.
