\begin{abstract} |
|
88 | 37 |
There are numerous textbooks on regular languages. Nearly all of them |
38 |
introduce the subject by describing finite automata and only mentioning on the |
|
39 |
side a connection with regular expressions. Unfortunately, automata are a |
|
40 |
hassle for formalisations in HOL-based theorem provers. The reason is that |
|
41 |
they need to be represented as graphs, matrices or functions, none of which |
|
42 |
are inductive datatypes. Also convenient operations for disjoint unions of |
|
43 |
graphs and functions are not easily formalisiable in HOL. In contrast, regular |
|
44 |
expressions can be defined conveniently as datatype and a corresponding |
|
45 |
reasoning infrastructure comes for free. We show in this paper that a central |
|
46 |
result from formal language theory---the Myhill-Nerode theorem---can be |
|
47 |
recreated using only regular expressions. |
