Here we give two problems about the longest increasing subsequence problem. Note: there actually is an answer to Question 1 that I didn't know when filming, but I still want you to work it out in the comments.

Here we show how to perform a "product" type construction on two NFAs. The basic idea is to follow the similar proof with the construction with two DFAs, but modify it for two NFAs by considering multiple transitions from the same state, and epsilon transitions.

Does this idea also work for union of two NFAs? 2. What about complement of an NFA? ▶SEND ME THEORY QUESTIONS◀ ryan.e.dougherty@icloud.comt ▶ABOUT ME◀ I am a professor of Computer Science, and am passionate about CS theory. I have taught over 12 courses at Arizona State University, as well as Colgate University, including several sections of undergraduate theory. ▶ABOUT THIS CHANNEL◀ The theory of computation is perhaps the fundamental theory of computer science. It sets out to define, mathematically, what exactly computation is, what is feasible to solve using a computer, and also what is not possible to solve using a computer. The main objective is to define a computer mathematically, without the reliance on real-world computers, hardware or software, or the plethora of programming languages we have in use today. The notion of a Turing machine serves this purpose and defines what we believe is the crux of all computable functions. This channel is also about weaker forms of computation, concentrating on two classes: regular languages and context-free languages. These two models help understand what we can do with restricted means of computation, and offer a rich theory using which you can hone your mathematical skills in reasoning with simple machines and the languages they define. However, they are not simply there as a weak form of computation--the most attractive aspect of them is that problems formulated on them are tractable, i.e. we can build efficient algorithms to reason with objects such as finite automata, context-free grammars and pushdow ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyMVaJYyehY

Here we give different proofs that EQ_DFA is decidable: (1) a different formulation of "equality" for two sets (namely regular languages), (2) minimization of DFAs, and (3) using the pumping lemma.
