A Proof Theory for Model Checking: An Extended Abstract [PDF]

open access: diamondElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
While model checking has often been considered as a practical alternative to building formal proofs, we argue here that the theory of sequent calculus proofs can be used to provide an appealing foundation for model checking.

Institutions: abstract model theory for specification and programming [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of the ACM, 1992
There is a population explosion among the logical systems used in computing science. Examples include first-order logic, equational logic, Horn-clause logic, higher-order logic, infinitary logic, dynamic logic, intuitionistic logic, order-sorted logic, and temporal logic; moreover, there is a tendency for each theorem prover to have its ...

Beyond abstract elementary classes: On the model theory of geometric lattices [PDF]

open access: greenAnnals of Pure and Applied Logic, 2017
Based on Crapo's theory of one point extensions of combinatorial geometries, we find various classes of geometric lattices that behave very well from the point of view of stability theory. One of them, $(\mathbf{K}^3, \preccurlyeq)$, is $ω$-stable, it has a monster model and an independence calculus that satisfies all the usual properties of non ...

The theorems of Beth and Craig in abstract model theory. I. The abstract setting [PDF]

open access: bronzeTransactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1979
In the context of abstract model theory various definability properties, their interrelations and their relation to compactness are investigated.

Relational data models and category theory (abstract) [PDF]

open access: goldProceedings of the 1990 ACM annual conference on Cooperation - CSC '90, 1990
Mathematicians use the notion of category to define their universe. While database theorists use the data model to define their universe of discourse. Therefore, a close interconnection between these two disciplines should be anticipated. This paper represents our first effort to explore this interconnection.

Abstract model theory

open access: green, 2010
We define a notion of logic that provides a general framework for the study of extensions of first-order predicate calculus. The concept of partial isomorphism and its relation to infinitary logics are examined. Results on the definability of ordinals establish the setting for our proof of Lindstrom's Theorem: this theorem gives conditions that ...
