An Extension of the Schützenberger Product

  • Chapter
Lattices, Semigroups, and Universal Algebra

Abstract

The relation between the theory of finite monoids and the theory of rational languages is a well-known fact since Kleene’s Theorem (1954), and it was studied in the works of Schützenberger, Rhodes and Eilenberg, among others.

This work was supported by the “P.R.C. Mathématique et Informatique”
