Use Thompson's algorithm to build the NFA for the following regular expression. Build the corresponding DFA and minimize it.

  • (a|b)*abb(a|b)*

Solution

NFA

The following is the result of applying Thompson's algorithm.

Graphically, the DFA is represented as follows:


Given the minimization tree to the right, the final minimal DFA is:


The minimization tree is as follows. As can be seen, the states are indistinguishable.


The tree expansion for non-splitting sets has been omitted for simplicity ("a" transition for non-final states and the {0, 2} "a" and "b" transitions. The final states are all indistinguishable, regarding either "a" or "b" transitions.
