Abstract

For a positive integer n, n-expandable deep pushdown automata always contain no more than n occurrences of non-input symbols in their pushdowns during any compilation. As its main result, the present thesis demonstrates that those automata are as powerful as the same automata with #, which always appears solely as the pushdown bottom, and a single pushdown non-input symbol. An infinite hierarchy of language families follows from this result.

Keywords
