We show that there is a family of languages $$\mathcal {L}_{n\ge 2}$$ which can always be represented non-trivially by unary SV-XNFA. We also consider the descriptional complexity of unary SV-XNFA, giving an upper and lower bound for state complexity. %G English %Z TC 1 %Z WG 1.2 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01633957/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01633957/file/416473_1_En_14_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01633957 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01633957 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC1 %~ IFIP-WG %~ IFIP-DCFS %~ IFIP-LNCS-9777 %~ IFIP-WG1-2
