We investigate the intersection of Church-Rosser languages and (strongly) context-free languages. The intersection is still a proper superset of the deterministic context-free languages as well as of their reversals, while its membership problem is solvable in linear time. For the problem whether a given Church-Rosser or context-free language belongs to the intersection we show completeness for the second level of the arithmetic hierarchy. The equivalence of Church-Rosser and context-free languages is Π1-complete. It is proved that all considered intersections are pairwise incomparable. Finally, closure properties under several operations are investigated.

We introduce a new model for generating finite, digitized, connected pictures called puzzle grammars and study its generative power by comparison with array grammars. We note how this model generalizes the classical Chomskian grammars and study the effect of direction-independent rewriting rules. We prove that regular control does not increase the power of basic puzzle grammars. We show that for basic and context-free puzzle grammars, the membership problem is NP-complete and the emptiness problem is undecidable.
