Abstract

This paper studies the expressive power of finite-state automata recognizing sets of real numbers encoded positionally. It is known that the sets that are definable in the first-order additive theory of real and integer variables (ℝ, ℤ, +, 1. In this paper, we prove the reciprocal property, i.e., that a subset of R that is recognizable by weak deterministic automata in every base r > 1 is necessarily definable in (ℝ, ℤ, +,
