Abstract
In this paper, we continue our study on the state complexity of combined operations on regular languages. We study the state complexities of , , , and , for regular languages Li, 1≤i≤k, k≥2. We obtain the exact bounds for these combined operations and show that the state complexities of and are the same as the mathematical compositions of the state complexities of their component individual operations, while, on the other hand, the state complexities of and are lower than the corresponding mathematical compositions.
