Deterministic two-way transducers on finite words have been shown by Engelfriet and Hoogeboom to have the same expressive power as MSO-transductions. We introduce a notion of aperiodicity for these transducers and we show that aperiodic transducers correspond exactly to FO-transductions. This lifts to transducers the classical equivalence for languages between FO-definability, recognition by aperiodic monoids and acceptance by counter-free automata.

Parikh automata extend automata with counters whose values can only be tested at the end of the computation, with respect to membership into a semi-linear set. Parikh automata have found several applications, for instance in transducer theory, as they enjoy decidable emptiness problem. In this paper, we study two-way Parikh automata. We show that emptiness becomes undecidable in the non-deterministic case. However, it is PSpace-C when the number of visits to any input position is bounded and the semi-linear set is given as an existential Presburger formula. We also give tight complexity bounds for the inclusion, equivalence and universality problems. Finally, we characterise precisely the complexity of those problems when the semi-linear constraint is given by an arbitrary Presburger formula.
We consider input-deterministic finite state transducers with infinite inputs and infinite outputs, and we consider the property of Borel normality on infinite words. When these transducers are given by a strongly connected set of states, and when the input is a Borel normal sequence, the output is an infinite word such that every word has a frequency given by a weighted automaton over the rationals. We prove that there is an algorithm that decides in cubic time whether an input-deterministic transducer preserves normality.
We consider finite state non-deterministic but unambiguous transducers with infinite inputs and infinite outputs, and we consider the property of Borel normality of sequences of symbols. When these transducers are strongly connected, and when the input is a Borel normal sequence, the output is a sequence in which every block has a frequency given by a weighted automaton over the rationals. We provide an algorithm that decides in cubic time whether a unambiguous transducer preserves normality.
A language over an alphabet $B = A cup overline{A}$ of opening ($A$) and closing ($overline{A}$) brackets, is balanced if it is a subset of the Dyck language $D_B$ over $B$, and it is well-formed if all words are prefixes of words in $D_B$. We show that well-formedness of a context-free language is decidable in polynomial time, and that the longest common reduced suffix can be computed in polynomial time. With this at a hand we decide for the class 2-TWs of non-linear tree transducers with output alphabet $B^*$ whether or not the output language is balanced.
We show that equivalence of deterministic linear tree transducers can be decided in polynomial time when their outputs are interpreted over the free group. Due to the cancellation properties offered by the free group, the required constructions are not only more general, but also simpler than the corresponding constructions for proving equivalence of deterministic linear tree-to-word transducers.
