Abstract

A Conway semiring is a semiring Sequipped with a unary operation *:S茂戮驴S, called star, satisfying the sum star and product star equations. An iteration semiring is a Conway semiring satisfying Conway's group equations. In this extended abstract, we review the role of iteration semirings in the axiomatization of regular languages and rational power series, and in the axiomatization of the equational theory of continuous and complete semirings.
