"abstract": "A number of grammatical formalisms were introduced to define the syntax of natural languages. Among them are parallel multiple context-free grammars (pmcfg's) and lexical-functional grammars (lfg's). Pmcfg's and their subclass called multiple context-free grammars (mcfg's) are natural extensions of cfg's, and pmcfg's are known to be recognizable in polynomial time. Some subclasses of lfg's have been proposed, but they were shown to generate an AlP-complete language. Finite state translation systems (fts') were introduced as a computational model of transformational grammars. In this paper, three subclasses of lfg's called nc-lfg's, dc-lfg's and fc-lfg's are introduced and the generative capacities of the above mentioned grammatical formalisms are investigated. First, we show that the generative capacity of fts' is equal to that of nc-lfg's. As relations among subclasses of those formalisms, it is shown that the generative capacities of deterministic fts', dc-lfg's, and pmcfg's are equal to each other, and the generative capacity of fc-lfg's is equal to that of mcfg's. It is also shown that at least one Af79-complete language is generated by fts'. Consequently, deterministic fts', dc-lfg's and fc-lfg's can be recognized in polynomial time.

F is called the fstructure of v. An lfg G consists of a cfg Go called the underlying cfg of G and a finite set Pfs of equations called functional schemata which specify constraints between the f-structures of nodes in a derivation tree. Functional schemata are attached to symbols in productions of Go. It has been shown in (Nakanishi 1992 ) that the class of languages generated by lfg's is equal to that of re-cursively enumerable languages even though the underlying cfg's are restricted to regular grammars. In (Gazdar 1985) (Kaplan 1982) (Nishino 1991) , subclasses of lfg's were proposed in order to guarantee the recursiveness (and/or the efficient recognition) of languages generated by lfg's. However, these classes were shown to generate an A/P-complete language (Nakanishi 1992) .",
