Normality and automata

We prove that finite-state transducers with injective behavior, deterministic or not, real-time or not, with no extra memory or a single counter, cannot compress any normal word. We exhaust all combinations of determinism, real-time, and additional memory in the form of counters or stacks, identifyi...
