You can find specialized books consisting entirely or problems from particular math domains (e.g. linear algebra, polynomials, combinatorics), but I've yet to find such a book for automata of any kind.

$\begingroup$ The exercises in Hopcroft & Ullman first edition, and possibly also the earlier FLRA book by them (available online at dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1096945)? $\endgroup$– András SalamonFeb 20, 2014 at 22:11

2$\begingroup$ I would like such a book, pretty sure there isn't one though. If we were to build one as a community, Shiva Kintali's site TrueShelf would be a good place to collect such problems. trueshelf.com/all $\endgroup$– Andy DruckerFeb 20, 2014 at 22:55

1$\begingroup$ The book "Elements of Automata Theory" by Sakarovitch covers Automata Theory deeply. However, he uses a different notation compared to TCS-oriented texts. Once you got over this, its a pretty good book. $\endgroup$– A.SchulzMar 23, 2014 at 21:47

Sort of indirectly, this book is about research level automata problems:

An automatic sequence is essentially a set of strings which can be computed by a DFA.
