Module 7
Properties of Context-Free Languages
1
The Pumping Lemma for CFLs: Statement and Structure
State the Pumping Lemma for Context-Free Languages (CFLs) and explain its structure.
2
Proving Non-Context-Free Languages with the Pumping Lemma
Apply the Pumping Lemma to prove that a given language is not context-free (e.g., {aⁿbⁿcⁿ}).
3
Closure Properties of CFLs: Union, Concatenation, and Kleene Star
Prove that CFLs are closed under union, concatenation, and Kleene star using grammar-based constructions.
4
CFLs: Non-Closure Properties
Prove that CFLs are not closed under intersection and complement using counterexamples.
5
CYK Algorithm for CFLs
Solve the membership problem for CFLs using the CYK algorithm with a grammar in CNF.
6
Decidability of Emptiness and Finiteness for CFLs
Formulate and solve the decision problems of emptiness and finiteness for CFLs by analyzing their grammars.
