Abstract
We prove that the class of linear context-free tree languages is not closed under inverse linear tree homomorphisms. In fact, we prove a stronger result: we encode Dyck words into a linear context-free tree language and prove that its preimage under a certain linear tree homomorphism cannot be generated by any context-free tree grammar. A positive result can still be obtained: the linear monadic context-free tree languages are closed under inverse linear tree homomorphisms.
