Abstract A structure is automatic if its domain, functions, and relations are all regular languages. Using the fact that every automatic structure is decidable, in the literature many decision problems have been solved by giving an automatic presentation of a particular structure. Khoussainov and Nerode asked whether there is some way to tell whether a structure has, or does not have, an automatic presentation. We answer this question by showing that the set of Turing machines that represent…

It is shown that one can find semiautomatic representations for the field of rationals and also for finite algebraic field extensions of it and that infinite algebraic extensions of finite fields have semiaUTomatic representations in which the addition and equality are both automatic.
