Cycle Detection in Computation Tree Logic [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016
Temporal logic is a very powerful formalism deeply investigated and used in formal system design and verification. Its application usually reduces to solving specific decision problems such as model checking and satisfiability. In these kind of problems,

Rigid and Flexible Quantification in Plural Predicate Logic

open access: yes, 2017
Noun phrases with overt determiners, such as some apples  or a quantity of milk , differ from bare noun phrases like apples or milk in their contribution to aspectual composition.

The Effects of Adding Reachability Predicates in Quantifier-Free Separation Logic

open access: yesACM Transactions on Computational Logic, 2021
The list segment predicate ls used in separation logic for verifying programs with pointers is well suited to express properties on singly-linked lists.

A Type-Directed Negation Elimination [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2015
In the modal mu-calculus, a formula is well-formed if each recursive variable occurs underneath an even number of negations. By means of De Morgan's laws, it is easy to transform any well-formed formula into an equivalent formula without negations ...

Superdeduction in Lambda-Bar-Mu-Mu-Tilde [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2011
Superdeduction is a method specially designed to ease the use of first-order theories in predicate logic. The theory is used to enrich the deduction system with new deduction rules in a systematic, correct and complete way.

Embedding First-Order Tableaux into a Pure Type System [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We consider Pure Type Systems (PTSs) extended with a mechanism for parametric terms. In this paper we introduce a PTS called λP— utilizing this extension. λP— exactly corresponds to first-order predicate logic, unlike the usual embedding of this logic in

Automated verification of shape, size and bag properties. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In recent years, separation logic has emerged as a contender for formal reasoning of heap-manipulating imperative programs. Recent works have focused on specialised provers that are mostly based on fixed sets of predicates.

Order-Invariant MSO is Stronger than Counting MSO in the Finite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We compare the expressiveness of two extensions of monadic second-order logic (MSO) over the class of finite structures. The first, counting monadic second-order logic (CMSO), extends MSO with first-order modulo-counting quantifiers, allowing the ...

Non‐Classical Knowledge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Knower paradox purports to place surprising a priori limitations on what we can know. According to orthodoxy, it shows that we need to abandon one of three plausible and widely-held ideas: that knowledge is factive, that we can know that knowledge is

Practical Theory Extension in Event-B [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
. The Rodin tool for Event-B supports formal modelling and proof using a mathematical language that is based on predicate logic and set theory. Although Rodin has in-built support for a rich set of operators and proof rules, for some application areas ...
