A Characterization of Totally Compatible Automata
Abstract
Every function on a finite set defines an equivalence relation and, therefore, a partition called the kernel of the function. Automata such that every possible partition is the kernel of a word are called totally compatible. A characterization of such automata is given together with an algorithm to recognize them in polynomial running time with respect to the number of states.
