We investigate the descriptional complexity of operations on finite and infinite regular languages over unary and arbitrary alphabets. The languages are represented by nondeterministic finite automata (NFA). In particular, we consider Boolean operations, catenation operations – concatenation, iteration, λ-free iteration – and the reversal. Most of the shown bounds are tight in the exact number of states, i.e. the number is sufficient and necessary in the worst case. Otherwise tight bounds in the order of magnitude are shown.
