Book DetailsCBMS Regional Conference Series in MathematicsVolume: 13; 1972; 22 ppMSC: Primary 94
This volume is an outgrowth of a series of lectures presented at the CBMS Regional Conference held at Morehouse College, Atlanta, Georgia, on September 8–12, 1969. The purpose of these notes, which present results reported here for the first time, is twofold. First, to give a quick overview of certain aspects of the mathematical theory of automata and to prove in detail a number of deeper results in this subject. Second, to combine and utilize the various methods, chiefly the method of automata on infinite trees, to obtain a simple and transparent solution of Church's solvability problem.
