Eisenstat, Sarah Charmian Wilson, David A. Proceedings of the 13th International Workshop, DCFS 2011, Gießen/Limburg, Germany, July 25-27, 2011. The separating words problem asks for the size of the smallest DFA needed to distinguish between two words of length ≤ n (by accepting one and rejecting the other). In this paper we survey what is known and unknown about the problem, consider some variations, and prove several new results. 2012-09-27T21:33:19Z 2012-09-27T21:33:19Z 2011-07 Article http://purl.org/eprint/type/ConferencePaper 978-3-642-22599-4 http://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/73455 Demaine, Erik D. et al. “Remarks on Separating Words.” Descriptional Complexity of Formal Systems.
