(Graded for correctness)|2 Functions over languages (15 points):
For languages L1,L2 over the alphabet 1={0,1}, we have the associated sets of strings
SUBSTRING(L1)={win1**| there exist a,bin1** such that {:awbinL1}
and
L1@L2={win1**|w=uv for some strings uinL1 and vinL2}
(a) Specify an example language A over 1 such that AO? and yet Substring(A)=O?, or
explain why there is no such example. A complete solution will include either (1) a precise
and clear description of your example language A and a precise and clear description of the
result of computing Substring (A) using relevant definitions to justify this description and
to justify the set equality with O?, or (2) a sufficiently general and correct argument why
there is no such example, referring back to the relevant definitions.
(b) Specify example languages B,C over 1 such that B1** and C1** and yet B@
C=1**, or explain why there are no such examples. A complete solution will include
either (1) a precise and clear description of your example languages B,C and a precise and
clear description of the result of computing B@C using relevant definitions to justify this
description and to justify the set equality with 1**, or (2) a sufficiently general and correct
argument why there is no such example, referring back to the relevant definitions.
(c) Specify example finite languages L1,L2 over 1 such that L1@L2L1 but |L1@L2|=|L1|, or
explain why there are no such examples. A complete solution will include either (1) a precise
and clear description of your example languages L1,L2 and a precise and clear description
of the result of computing L1@L2 using relevant definitions to justify this description and
to justify the cardinality claims and set (in)equality claims, or (2) a sufficiently general and
correct argument why there is no such example, referring back to the relevant definitions.
