    - #### minimize

          public static Automaton minimize(Automaton a,
                                           int determinizeWorkLimit)

      Minimizes (and determinizes if not already deterministic) the given automaton using Hopcroft's algorithm.
      Parameters:
        `determinizeWorkLimit` - maximum effort to spend determinizing the automaton. Set higher to allow more complex queries and lower to prevent memory exhaustion. Use `Operations.DEFAULT_DETERMINIZE_WORK_LIMIT` as a decent default if you don't otherwise know what to specify.
