A {\em determinisitc finite automata (DFA)} $M$ is a 5-tuple +
−
$(Q, \Sigma, \delta, s, F)$, where:+
−
\begin{enumerate}+
−
  \item $Q$ is a finite set of {\em states}, also denoted $Q_M$.+
−
  \item $\Sigma$ is a finite set of {\em alphabets}, also denoted $\Sigma_M$.+
−
  \item $\delta$ is a {\em transition function} of type @{text "Q \<times> \<Sigma> \<Rightarrow> Q"} (a total function),+
−
           also denoted $\delta_M$.+
−
  \item @{text "s \<in> Q"} is a state called {\em initial state}, also denoted $s_M$.+
−
  \item @{text "F \<subseteq> Q"} is a set of states named {\em accepting states}, also denoted $F_M$.+
−
\end{enumerate}+
−
Therefore, we have $M = (Q_M, \Sigma_M, \delta_M, s_M, F_M)$. Every DFA $M$ can be interpreted as +
−
a function assigning states to strings, denoted $\dfa{M}$, the  definition of which is as the following:+
−
\begin{equation}+
−
\begin{aligned}+
−
  \dfa{M}([]) &\equiv s_M \\+
−
   \dfa{M}(xa) &\equiv  \delta_M(\dfa{M}(x), a)+
−
\end{aligned}+
−
\end{equation}+
−
A string @{text "x"} is said to be {\em accepted} (or {\em recognized}) by a DFA $M$ if +
−
$\dfa{M}(x) \in F_M$. The language recoginzed by DFA $M$, denoted+
−
$L(M)$, is defined as:+
−
\begin{equation}+
−
  L(M) \equiv \{x~|~\dfa{M}(x) \in F_M\}+
−
\end{equation}+
−
The standard way of specifying a laugage $\Lang$ as {\em regular} is by stipulating that:+
−
$\Lang = L(M)$ for some DFA $M$.+
−
+
−
For any DFA $M$, the DFA obtained by changing initial state to another $p \in Q_M$ is denoted $M_p$, +
−
which is defined as:+
−
\begin{equation}+
−
    M_p \ \equiv\ (Q_M, \Sigma_M, \delta_M, p, F_M) +
−
\end{equation}+
−
Two states $p, q \in Q_M$ are said to be {\em equivalent}, denoted $p \approx_M q$, iff.+
−
\begin{equation}\label{m_eq_def}+
−
  L(M_p) = L(M_q)+
−
\end{equation}+
−
It is obvious that $\approx_M$ is an equivalent relation over $Q_M$. and +
−
the partition induced by $\approx_M$ has $|Q_M|$ equivalent classes.+
−
By overloading $\approx_M$,  an equivalent relation over strings can be defined:+
−
\begin{equation}+
−
  x \approx_M y ~ ~ \equiv ~ ~ \dfa{M}(x) \approx_M \dfa{M}(y)+
−
\end{equation}+
−
It can be proved that the the partition induced by $\approx_M$ also has $|Q_M|$ equivalent classes.+
−
It is also easy to show that: if $x \approx_M y$, then $x \approx_{L(M)} y$, and this means+
−
$\approx_M$ is a more refined equivalent relation than $\approx_{L(M)}$. Since partition induced by+
−
$\approx_M$ is finite, the one induced by $\approx_{L(M)}$ must also be finite. Now, we get one direction+
−
of \mht:+
−
\begin{Lem}[\mht , Direction one]+
−
  If a language $\Lang$ is regular (i.e. $\Lang = L(M)$ for some DFA $M$), then +
−
  the partition induced by $\approx_\Lang$ is finite.+
−
\end{Lem}+
−
+
−
The other direction is:+
−
\begin{Lem}[\mht , Direction two]\label{auto_mh_d2}+
−
  If  the partition induced by $\approx_\Lang$ is finite, then+
−
  $\Lang$ is regular (i.e. $\Lang = L(M)$ for some DFA $M$).+
−
\end{Lem}+
−
To prove this lemma, a DFA $M_\Lang$ is constructed out of $\approx_\Lang$ with:+
−
\begin{subequations}+
−
\begin{eqnarray}+
−
  Q_{M_\Lang} ~ & \equiv & ~ \{ \cls{x}{\approx_\Lang}~|~ x \in \Sigma^* \}\\+
−
  \Sigma_{M_\Lang} ~ & \equiv & ~ \Sigma_M \\+
−
  \delta_{M_\Lang} ~ & \equiv & ~ \left (\lambda (\cls{x}{\approx_\Lang}, a).  \cls{xa}{\approx_\Lang} \right) \\+
−
  s_{M_\Lang} ~ & \equiv & ~ \cls{[]}{\approx_\Lang} \\+
−
  F_{M_\Lang} ~ & \equiv & ~ \{ \cls{x}{\approx_\Lang}~|~ x \in \Lang \}+
−
\end{eqnarray}+
−
\end{subequations}+
−
From the assumption of lemma \ref{auto_mh_d2}, we have that $\{ \cls{x}{\approx_\Lang}~|~ x \in \Sigma^* \}$+
−
is finite+
−
It can be proved that $\Lang = L(M_\Lang)$.+
