Abstract

We prove that, similarly to known PSpace-completeness of recognising FO(1. These FO-languages are known to define regular languages that are decidable in AC0 and ACC0, respectively.) We obtain these results by first showing that known algebraic characterisations of FO-definability of L(A) can be captured by `localisable' properties of the transition monoid of A. Using our criterion, we then generalise the known proof of PSpace-hardness of FO(
