Abstract

We state two variants of the Theorem of Kleene-Schützenberger: one for arbitrary semirings and proper finite automata; the other for Conway semirings and arbitrary finite automata. Considering finite automata over partial Conway semirings over an ideal, we show that these two variants are special cases of a unifying theorem.
