    (1) Regular control does not increase the generating power of 1-restricted [d]KK-iteration grammars provided that K⊇SYMBOLK\supseteq{\rm SYMBOL}, and KK is closed under isomorphism and under union with SYMBOL{\rm SYMBOL}-languages. (2) Let Γ\Gamma be a prequasoid closed under the regular operations. If KK is a prequasoid [pseudoid], then H(Γ)⊆H(Γ,K)H(\Gamma)\subseteq H(\Gamma,K) [η(Γ)⊆η(Γ,K)\eta(\Gamma) \subseteq\eta(\Gamma,K). In particular we have H(Γ)⊆(Γ)ETOLH(\Gamma) \subseteq (\Gamma){\rm ETOL} and η(Γ)⊆(Γ)EDTOL\eta(\Gamma) \subseteq (\Gamma){\rm EDTOL}.(3) Underweak assumptions on Γ\Gamma and KK, the decidability of the emptiness problem for Γ\Gamma and KK implies the decidability of the emptiness problem and the membership problem for the families η(Γ,K)\eta(\Gamma,K) and η(K)\eta(K)

    Iterating iterated substitution

    By iterating iterated substitution not all regular languages can be copied. Hence the smallest full hyper (1)-AFL is properly contained in ETOL, the smallest full hyper-AFL. The number of iterations of iterated substitution gives rise to a proper hierarchy. Consequently the smallest full hyper (1)-AFL is not a full principal AFL

    Hierarchies of hyper-AFLs

    For a full semi-AFL K, B(K) is defined as the family of languages generated by all K-extended basic macro grammars, while H(K) B(K) is the smallest full hyper-AFL containing K; a full basic-AFL is a full AFL K such that B(K) = K (hence every full basic-AFL is a full hyper-AFL). For any full semi-AFL K, K is a full basic-AFL if and only if B(K) is substitution closed if and only if H(K) is a full basic-AFL. If K is not a full basic-AFL, then the smallest full basic-AFL containing K is the union of an infinite hierarchy of full hyper-AFLs. If K is a full principal basic-AFL (such as INDEX, the family of indexed languages), then the largest full AFL properly contained in K is a full basic-AFL. There is a full basic-AFL lying properly in between the smallest full basic-AFL and the largest full basic-AFL in INDEX
