The square of a language L is the set of all words pp where p ∈ L . The square of a regular language may be regular too or context‐free or none of both. We give characterizations for each of these cases and show that it is decidable whether a regular language has one of these properties. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
