Nested Hoare Triples and Frame Rules for Higher-order Store [PDF]
Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2011 Separation logic is a Hoare-style logic for reasoning about programs with heap-allocated mutable data structures. As a step toward extending separation logic to high-level languages with ML-style general (higher-order) storage, we investigate the ...

Coaxioms: flexible coinductive definitions by inference systems [PDF]
Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2020 We introduce a generalized notion of inference system to support more flexible interpretations of recursive definitions. Besides axioms and inference rules with the usual meaning, we allow also coaxioms, which are, intuitively, axioms which can only be ...

A Variational Beam Model for Failure of Cellular and Truss‐Based Architected Materials
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView., 2023 Herein, a versatile and efficient beam modeling framework is developed to predict the nonlinear response and failure of cellular, truss‐based, and woven architected materials. It enables the exploration of their design space and the optimization of their mechanical behavior in the nonlinear regime. A variational formulation of a beam model is presented

Dense-Timed Petri Nets: Checking Zenoness, Token liveness and Boundedness [PDF]
Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2007 We consider Dense-Timed Petri Nets (TPN), an extension of Petri nets in which each token is equipped with a real-valued clock and where the semantics is lazy (i.e., enabled transitions need not fire; time can pass and disable transitions).

Approximating a Behavioural Pseudometric without Discount for Probabilistic Systems [PDF]
Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2008 Desharnais, Gupta, Jagadeesan and Panangaden introduced a family of behavioural pseudometrics for probabilistic transition systems. These pseudometrics are a quantitative analogue of probabilistic bisimilarity.

Local Reasoning about Probabilistic Behaviour for Classical-Quantum Programs [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Verifying the functional correctness of programs with both classical and quantum constructs is a challenging task. The presence of probabilistic behaviour entailed by quantum measurements and unbounded while loops complicate the verification task greatly.

Novel 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives as promising anti-Candida agents endowed with anti-oxidant and chelating properties [PDF]
, 2016 Pursuing our recent outcomes regarding the antifungal activity of N-substituted 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones, we synthesized thirty-six new derivatives introducing aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and heteroaromatic moieties at N1-hydrazine connected with C2 position

A Complete Axiom System for Propositional Interval Temporal Logic with Infinite Time [PDF]
Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2012 Interval Temporal Logic (ITL) is an established temporal formalism for reasoning about time periods. For over 25 years, it has been applied in a number of ways and several ITL variants, axiom systems and tools have been investigated.

Pushdown Normal-Form Bisimulation: A Nominal Context-Free Approach to Program Equivalence [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We propose Pushdown Normal Form (PDNF) Bisimulation to verify contextual equivalence in higher-order functional programming languages with local state. Similar to previous work on Normal Form (NF) bisimulation, PDNF Bisimulation is sound and complete with respect to contextual equivalence.

A non-Abelian Chern-Simons term for non-BPS D-branes [PDF]
, 2000 We propose a Chern-Simons term for N coinciding non-BPS D-branes. Demanding full U(N) invariance and compatibility with T-duality, it is shown that it is necessary to introduce new interaction terms, through which the non-BPS D-branes couple to all p ...
