Description of the research topic:

Formal languages and automata theory are the basics of theoretical computer science. Some parts of the theory are fairly old, but there are several new developments as well (e.g., normal form for regular expressions, 2-head automata for language classes related to linear languages). This topic includes new perspectives of the Chomsky hierarchy, related grammar, language and automata classes. Also there are several new formal models, e.g., automata with translucent letters, that describe new language families.
