If $f$ is a function of integers, define $f(L)$ to be
$$
w mid textfor some $x$, with $.
$$



Show that if $L$ is a regular language, then so if $f(L)$, if $f$ is one of the following functions:




  1. $f(n)=n^2$ (i.e., the amount we take has length equal to the square root of what we do not take)

  2. $f(n)=2^n$

This is a question from John Hopcroft's Introduction to Automata Theory, that is, Exercise 4.2.9.
And I find it hard to construct a automata like what we do in this question.
