A profinite approach to complete bifix decodings of recurrent languages

Abstract

We approach the study of complete bifix decodings of (uniformly) recurrent languages with the help of the free profinite monoid. We show that the complete bifix decoding of a uniformly recurrent language F by an F-charged rational complete bifix code is uniformly recurrent. An analogous result is obtained for recurrent languages.
