Other Undecidable Problems

For arbitrary CFGs G, G1 and G2 and an arbitrary regular set R

The following problems are undecidable:

  1. Whether <math>(L(G1))^\complement</math> is a CFL
  2. Whether <math>L(G1) \cap L(G2)</math> is a CFL
  3. Whether <math>L(G1) \cap L(G2)</math> is empty
  4. Whether <math>L(G) = R</math>
  5. Whether <math>L(G) \subseteq R</math>
  6. Whether <math>G</math> is ambiguous
  7. Whether <math>L(G)</math> is a DCFL

But whether <math>R \subseteq L(G)</math> is decidable

For arbitrary DCFGs G, G1 and G2 and an arbitrary regular set R

The following problems are decidable:

  1. Whether <math>(L(G1))^\complement</math> is a DCFL
  2. Whether <math>L(G) = R</math>
  3. Whether <math>L(G) \subseteq R</math>
  4. Whether <math>L(G)</math> is a CFL

Whether <math>R \subseteq L(G)</math> is decidable
