Let $K$ be the diagonal halting set, which is undecidable. The pumping argument below actually holds for every subset $K\subseteq \mathbb{N}$; nonregularity needs the stated convention, or at least a set of exponents whose unary language is nonregular.

The pumping lemma for regular languages holds with pumping length one. For an accepted nonempty word, pump its first symbol. A word containing only $1$s remains in $1^{\ast }$ even if that symbol is deleted. If there is a zero and a nonempty prefix before its last zero, pumping the first symbol leaves the last zero and its following $n\in K$ ones unchanged. If the word is $01^n$, pumping its initial zero produces $0^i{1}^n$; this is accepted for $i\ge 1$, and for $i=0$ it belongs to $1^{\ast }$. In every case the pumped substring is nonempty and lies in the first position.

If $L$ were a regular language, closure under intersection would makeregular. A finite-state automaton for this intersection would decide membership of $n$ in the diagonal halting set by reading $01^n$, a contradiction. Thus $L$ satisfies the pumping lemma but is not regular, under the usual meaning of $\mathbb{K}$. If $K$ were arbitrary, the printed conclusion would be false, for example for $K=\mathbb{N}$.

The pumping lemma for context-free languages states that every context-free language $L$ has a pumping length $p$ such that every $w\in L$ with $|w|\ge p$ can be writtenwith $|vxy|\le p$, $|vy|>0$, and $u{v}^{i}x{y}^{i}z\in L$ for every integer $i\ge 0$.

This language is not context-free. Let $p$ be a proposed pumping length and choose $n$ with $3^n\ge p$. In any pumping decomposition of the unary word $a^{3^n}$, pumping once more increases its length by an integer $d$ with $1\le d\le p$. Butso the pumped length is not a power of three, contrary to the pumping lemma for context-free languages. This is also an instance of the fact that a unary context-free language is regular, whereas the powers of three are not ultimately periodic.

LetIntersect it with the regular languageEvery word of $R$ contains exactly two copies of $b$. If it is a proper power, its exponent must therefore be two and its root must contain one $b$. HenceThis language is not regular: if $p$ were a pumping length, pumping any nonempty substring among the first $p$ copies of $a$ in $a^{p}b{a}^{p}b$ would change only its first $a$-block. Since regular languages are closed under intersection,This is the proper-power language is not regular.

The language $L=\{a^{m^2}{b}^{m^2}:m\ge 0\}$ is not context-free. Suppose it had pumping length $p$ in the pumping lemma for context-free languages, and apply the lemma to $w=a^{p^2}{b}^{p^2}$. Write $w=uvxyz$ with $|vxy|\le p$, $|vy|>0$, and $u{v}^{i}x{y}^{i}z\in L$ for every $i\ge 0$.

Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be the respective numbers of $a$s and $b$s in $vy$. If $\alpha \ne \beta$, pumping with $i=0$ or $i=2$ destroys equality of the two block lengths. Hence a valid decomposition would require $\alpha =\beta =d>0$. Pumping with $i=2$ would then produce $a^{p^2+d}{b}^{p^2+d}$, where $1\le d\le p$. Butso $p^2+d$ is not a square number. This contradiction proves the square-count language is not context-free.
