Abstract: | The paper develops the theory of Turing machines as recognizers of infinite (w-type) input tapes. Various models of w-type Turing acceptors are considered, varying mainly in their mechanism for recognizing w-tapes. A comparative study of the models is made. It is shown that regardless of the w-recognition model considered, non-deterministic w-Turing acceptors are strictly more powerful than their deterministic counterparts. Canonical forms are obtained for each of the w-Turing acceptor models. The corresponding families of w-sets are studied; normal forms and algebraic characterizations are derived for each family. |
