Abstract

The paper continues the study of union-free and deterministic union-free languages. In contrast with the fact that every regular language can be described as a finite union of union-free languages, we show that the finite unions of deterministic union-free languages define a proper subfamily of regular languages. Then we examine the properties of this subfamily.
