An incompressibility theorem for automatic complexity

Shallit and Wang showed that the automatic complexity $A(x)$ satisfies $A(x)\ge n/13$ for almost all $x\in {\{\mathtt {0},\mathtt {1}\}}^n$ . They also stated that Holger Petersen had informed them that the constant $13$ can be reduced to $7$ . Here we show that it c...
