We will discuss the dynamic complexity of formal languages. As opposed
to static complexity theory, which investigates the complexity of problems over fixed structures, dynamic
complexity theory concerns the complexity necessary to maintain the
answer to a problem on an ever changing structure. In terms of formal
languages, this amounts to maintaining whether a changing word is in a
given language. We will show that the regular languages are exactly
those languages maintainable using quantifier-free first order
updates, and consider some related questions.
