[Mary Marre via Theory]

*When:*        Thursday, March 13, 2025 at *11:00** am CT   *

                   TTIC, 6045 S. Kenwood Avenue

*Who: *         Zachary Chase, UC San Diego

*Title:         *Separating words

*Abstract:* We show that for any distinct n-bit strings x and y, there is a
deterministic finite automaton on n^{1/3} states that accepts x but not y.
The methods involve complex analysis and elementary number theory.
