Abstract

In this paper we combine two classical generalisations of finite automata (weighted automata and automata on infinite words) into a model of integer weighted automata on infinite words and study the universality and the emptiness problems under zero weight acceptance. We show that the universality problem is undecidable for three-state automata by a direct reduction from the infinite Post correspondence problem. We also consider other more general acceptance conditions as well as their complements with respect to the universality and the emptiness problems. Additionally, we build a universal integer weighted automaton where the automaton is fixed and the word problem is undecidable.
