Summary :

In this paper, we characterize the structure generating function of a strongly connected automaton. It is proved that poles of the minimal absolute value of the structure generating function are , ei/h, , ei( h 1)/ h where h is the period of a strongly connected automaton and r is the Frobenius's root of its incidence matrix. This result is a specialization of Berstol's result which characterizes the structure generating function in general. His method is based on the analysis. But we prove our results using some facts in linear algebra and graph theory. And we obtain analogous results for an automaton by considering the strongly connected automaton which contains as a subautomaton.
