Sample question for T2 (CSC363) ==================================== 1. If A is recognizable and B unrecgonizable, is it always true that A<=m B? Prove or give a counter example. 2. Let FIN = { : M is a TM such that |L(M)| is finite} Show that FIN is unrecognizable. Does Rice's thm shows anything about FIN? 3. Prove that the class of languages in TIME(n^2) is a subset of the class TIME(n^3). 4. Let L be a language that is decided by a 5-tape deterministic TM in time O(n^3). Show that L is in TIME(n^6). MORE (added Nov 10): 5. Show that L = { : L(M) = {w1,w2,w3} } is unrecognizable. 6. Let L1 and L2 be lnguages in P. is L1 union L2 necessarily in P? 7. Show that CUBIC = { : n is natural number} is in P. 8. Show that { : m,n are natural numbers and m>n} is in P. (For both 7 and 8 you may assume that the encoding of a natural number is in decimal or binary, whichever is more convenient.)
