Graphical Encoding of a Spatial Logic for the pi-Calculus

open access: yes, 2007
This paper extends our graph-based approach to the verification of spatial properties of π-calculus specifications. The mechanism is based on an encoding for mobile calculi where each process is mapped into a graph (with interfaces) such that the ...

On the Expansion of Monadic Second-Order Logic with Cantor-Bendixson Rank and Order Type Predicates [PDF]

open access: yes
In this work, we consider two extensions of monadic second-order logic, and study in what cases the classical decidability results are preserved. The first extension, MSO[CBrank_β], is MSO (over the signature of the binary tree) augmented with the extra

Monadic second order logic on graphs with local cardinality constraints

open access: yes, 2011
We introduce the class of MSO-LCC problems, which are problems of the following form. Given a graph G and for each vertex v of G a set α( v ) of ...

The complexity of first-order and monadic second-order logic revisited

open access: yes, 2004
The model-checking problem for a logic L on a class C of structures asks whether a given L-sentence holds in a given structure in C. In this paper, we give super-exponential lower bounds for fixed-parameter tractable model-checking problems for first ...

The monadic second-order logic of graphs. I. Recognizable sets of finite graphs

open access: yes, 1990
The notion of a recognizable set of finite graphs is introduced. Every set of finite graphs, that is definable in monadic second-order logic is recognizable, but not vice versa.

Proving theorems by program transformation

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper we present an overview of the unfold/fold proof method, a method for proving theorems about programs, based on program transformation. As a metalanguage for specifying programs and program properties we adopt constraint logic programming ...

A Hierarchical Approach to Graph Automata and Monadic Second-Order Logic over Graphs

open access: yes, 2007
A hierarchical approach to the decomposition of graphs is introduced which is related to the notion of tree decomposition. On this basis a hierarchical automaton model for graphs is defined.
