General Decidability Results for Asynchronous Shared-Memory Programs: Higher-Order and Beyond [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2022
The model of asynchronous programming arises in many contexts, from low-level systems software to high-level web programming. We take a language-theoretic perspective and show general decidability and undecidability results for asynchronous programs that

Decidability for Sturmian words [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2021
We show that the first-order theory of Sturmian words over Presburger arithmetic is decidable. Using a general adder recognizing addition in Ostrowski numeration systems by Baranwal, Schaeffer and Shallit, we prove that the first-order expansions of ...

On the Decidability and Complexity of Diagnosability for Labeled Petri Nets

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2017
In this paper, we investigate the decidability and complexity of the fault diagnosis problem in unbounded labeled Petri nets. First, we show that checking diagnosability for unbounded Petri nets is decidable.

The logical strength of B\"uchi's decidability theorem [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2019
We study the strength of axioms needed to prove various results related to automata on infinite words and B\"uchi's theorem on the decidability of the MSO theory of $(N, {\le})$.

Decidability Results for the Boundedness Problem [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2014
We prove decidability of the boundedness problem for monadic least fixed-point recursion based on positive monadic second-order (MSO) formulae over trees.

A Syntactic Proof of the Decidability of First-Order Monadic Logic

open access: yesBulletin of the Section of Logic
Decidability of monadic first-order classical logic was established by Löwenheim in 1915. The proof made use of a semantic argument and a purely syntactic proof has never been provided.

Decidability Problems for Actor Systems [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2014
We introduce a nominal actor-based language and study its expressive power. We have identified the presence/absence of fields as a crucial feature: the dynamic creation of names in combination with fields gives rise to Turing completeness.

Effective Procedures

open access: yesPhilosophies, 2023
The “somewhat vague, intuitive” notion from computability theory of an effective procedure (method) or algorithm can be fairly precisely defined, even if it does not have a purely mathematical definition—and even if (as many have asserted) for that ...

Decidability Preservation and Complexity Bounds for Combined Logics

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Transfer theorems for combined logics provide essential tools and insight for reasoning about complex logical systems. In this paper, we present the first sufficient criterion (contextual extensibility) for decidability to be preserved through ...
