Additional information
<10>The connection between word problems of groups and formal language theory is well established and several deep results have been obtained (including the Muller-Schupp classification of context-free groups) but little is known when we generalize the situation to semigroups. This paper describes one-counter semigroups and answers a long standing question as to whether one can prove a result of Herbst from 1991 without using the Muller-Schupp classification. The paper also sets the scene for subsequent work such as that by Hoffmann et al in their 2012 DLT paper and by Brough in her paper arXiv:1104.1806.
