Abstract

We prove that each context-flee language has a polynomial size test set. This improves the doubly exponential upper bound obtained in [ACK] and single exponential bound from [KRJ]. An efficient algorithm to find test sets for contextfree languages is also presented. The basic tools in the proof are graph-theoretical properties of test sets and periodicities in strings.
