On shuffle products, acyclic automata and piecewise-testable languages

open access: yes, 2019
We show that the shuffle $L \unicode{x29E2} F$ of a piecewise-testable language $L$ and a finite language $F$ is piecewise-testable. The proof relies on a classic but little-used automata-theoretic characterization of piecewise-testable languages.

Non-associative and projective linear logics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
A non-commutative, non-associative weakening of Girard's linear logic is developed for multiplicative and additive connectives. Additional assumptions capture the logic of quantic measurements.

Complexity Results for Modal Dependence Logic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Modal dependence logic was introduced recently by V\"a\"an\"anen. It enhances the basic modal language by an operator =(). For propositional variables p_1,...,p_n, =(p_1,...,p_(n-1);p_n) intuitively states that the value of p_n is determined by those of ...

Logic-based similarity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
This paper develops a {\em qualitative} and logic-based notion of similarity from the ground up using only elementary concepts of first-order logic centered around the fundamental model-theoretic notion of type.

Preservation and decomposition theorems for bounded degree structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We provide elementary algorithms for two preservation theorems for first-order sentences (FO) on the class \^ad of all finite structures of degree at most d: For each FO-sentence that is preserved under extensions (homomorphisms) on \^ad, a \^ad ...

Property Checking Without Invariant Generation

open access: yes, 2020
We introduce a procedure for proving safety properties. This procedure is based on a technique called Partial Quantifier Elimination (PQE). In contrast to complete quantifier elimination, in PQE, only a part of the formula is taken out of the scope of ...

An Application Specific Informal Logic for Interest Prohibition Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Interest prohibition theory concerns theoretical aspects of interest prohibition. We attempt to lay down some aspects of interest prohibition theory wrapped in a larger framework of informal logic.

On computing fixpoints in well-structured regular model checking, with applications to lossy channel systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We prove a general finite convergence theorem for "upward-guarded" fixpoint expressions over a well-quasi-ordered set. This has immediate applications in regular model checking of well-structured systems, where a main issue is the eventual convergence of
