Is there a description of HTML5 syntax that is similarly concise as the HTML 4.01 DTD?

I like the way the HTML4 syntax is specified. Is there a similar description available for HTML5 (preferably HTML, not XHTML syntax)?

No, because the rules for HTML5 are fundamentally more complicated than can be expressed in a DTD. The nearest you're likely to get is HTML5: The Markup Language Reference

HTML5 intends to be as much backwards compatible as possible and inherits most of the syntax (albeit simplified from its predecessors).

For a work in progress of the HTML5 spec, check this page.

No because HTML5 is not a complete syntax as of yet.

There are good lists of available syntax though.
