Double Greibach operator grammars

AbstractEvery context-free grammar can be transformed into one in double Greibach operator form, that satisfies both double Greibach form and operator form. Examination of the expressive power of various well-known subclasses of context-free grammars in double Greibach and/or operator form yields an extended hierarchy of language classes. Basic decision properties such as equivalence can be stated in stronger forms via new classes of languages in this hierarchy
