Introduction to Theory of Computation

Theory of Computation by Kyle Burke

This pdf begins with an overview of resources, organization and motivation and preview of CS theory covering the Limits of Computation, the Undecidability of the Halting Problem.The Automata and Machines including Deterministic and Nondeterministic Finite-state Automata, Pushdown Automata, and Turing Machines and Language Classes. Finally focus shifts to Computational Complexity, discussing NP-Completeness, Approximation Algorithms, and the Hardness of Approximation.

Computation Theory Lecture notes

The aim of this course note is to introduce several apparently different formalisations of the informal notion of algorithm; to show that they are equivalent; and to use them to demonstrate that there are incomputable functions and algorithmically undecidable problems.
