An Application of the Feferman-Vaught Theorem to Automata and Logics for Words over an Infinite Alphabet
We show that a special case of the Feferman-Vaught composition theorem gives rise to a natural notion of automata for finite words over an infinite alphabet, with good closure and decidability properties, as well as several logical characterizations. We also consider a slight extension of the Feferm...
