This document provides an overview of pushdown automata and context-free grammars including their formal definitions, languages, equivalence, determinism, properties, decision properties, regular expressions, finite automata, algebraic laws, and applications. Specific topics covered include the definition of pushdown automata and graphical notation, languages accepted by final/empty states, equivalence with context-free grammars, deterministic pushdown automata, normal forms for grammars, the pumping lemma, closure properties, regular expressions and their operators/precedence, converting between automata and expressions, properties of regular languages, context-free grammars and their derivations/parse trees, and applications like parsers.
