Isn't closure implicit if we talk about an operation "on M"? (anonymous)

I think closure would be implied by saying operation in M. Tortoise3 12:48, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pumping Lemma

The pumping lemmas (regular and context-free) are very important observations in language theory, and the Kleene closure is essential to their use, so I think a link to the pumping lemma would be quite appropriate. Any objections? Aragorn2 09:42, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Definition

The notes that say "0/1 denotes...events" seem to be taken out of context...? Tortoise3 12:18, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pronounciation

How is it pronounced?

[edit] Is V1 defined?

It seems to me that V1 is left undefined here:

 V_{i+1}=\{wv : w\in V_i \mbox{ and }  v \in V\}\, where i > 0\,.

Shouldn't i say "where i \geq 0 " ?

I didn't correct it since I'm new in this area.
