Abstract

Stringology is a modern part of the formal language theory which deals with strings and operations on them. These operations we can divide into two groups - insertion and deletion operations. This paper presents these operations and studies their closure properties. The main contribution of this paper are algorithms constructing finite automata accepting the result of these operations from finite automata accepting the operands. By designing these algorithms we demonstrate, that the family of regular languages is closed under these operations.
