Querying the Guarded Fragment [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2014
Evaluating a Boolean conjunctive query Q against a guarded first-order theory F is equivalent to checking whether "F and not Q" is unsatisfiable. This problem is relevant to the areas of database theory and description logic.

Adding Path-Functional Dependencies to the Guarded Two-Variable Fragment with Counting [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2017
The satisfiability and finite satisfiability problems for the two-variable guarded fragment of first-order logic with counting quantifiers, a database, and path-functional dependencies are both ExpTime-complete.

Finite Model Reasoning in Expressive Fragments of First-Order Logic [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
Over the past two decades several fragments of first-order logic have been identified and shown to have good computational and algorithmic properties, to a great extent as a result of appropriately describing the image of the standard translation of ...

First Autochthonous Infection of a Cat with Dirofilaria immitis in Austria

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
This case report is about a seven-year-old male neutered European Shorthair cat infected by Dirofilaria immitis as the first reported autochthonous Dirofilaria immitis infection in Austria. There was no history of periods abroad.

Lindstrom theorems for fragments of first-order logic [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2009
Lindstr\"om theorems characterize logics in terms of model-theoretic conditions such as Compactness and the L\"owenheim-Skolem property. Most existing characterizations of this kind concern extensions of first-order logic.

A multi-paradigm language for reactive synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016
This paper proposes a language for describing reactive synthesis problems that integrates imperative and declarative elements. The semantics is defined in terms of two-player turn-based infinite games with full information.

Preservation theorems for Tarski's relation algebra [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science
We investigate a number of semantically defined fragments of Tarski's algebra of binary relations, including the function-preserving fragment. We address the question whether they are generated by a finite set of operations.

On two-variable guarded fragment logic with expressive local Presburger constraints [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science
We consider the extension of the two-variable guarded fragment logic with local Presburger quantifiers. These are quantifiers that can express properties such as "the number of incoming blue edges plus twice the number of outgoing red edges is at ...

Generalising KAT to Verify Weighted Computations

open access: yesScientific Annals of Computer Science, 2019
Kleene algebra with tests (KAT) was introduced as an algebraic structure to model and reason about classic imperative programs, i.e. sequences of discrete transitions guarded by Boolean tests.
