There are exactly __________ different finite automata with three states x, y and z over the alphabet {a, b} where x is always the start state.
5832
A DFA here is fixed by its transition function and its set of final states, with the start state fixed.
Transitions: 3 states x 2 symbols = 6 entries, each choosing 1 of 3 states, so \(3^{6} = 729\) functions.
Final states: any subset of 3 states, so \(2^{3} = 8\) choices.
Total \(= 729 \times 8 = 5832\).
Check: \(5832 = 18^{3}\), and the smaller values ignore either final-state choices or some transitions.
Hence, 5832.
The transition function for the language \(L = \{w \mid n_{a}(w)\) and \(n_{b}(w)\) are both odd\(\}\) is given by :
\(\delta(q_{0}, a) = q_{1}\) ; \(\delta(q_{0}, b) = q_{2}\)
\(\delta(q_{1}, a) = q_{0}\) ; \(\delta(q_{1}, b) = q_{3}\)
\(\delta(q_{2}, a) = q_{3}\) ; \(\delta(q_{2}, b) = q_{0}\)
\(\delta(q_{3}, a) = q_{2}\) ; \(\delta(q_{3}, b) = q_{1}\)
The initial and final states of the automata are :
