The monadic second-order logic of graphs XII: planar graphs and planar maps

open access: yesTheoretical Computer Science, 2000
We prove that we can specify by formulas of monadic second-order logic the unique planar embedding of a 3-connected planar graph. If the planar graph is not 3-connected but given with a linear order of its set of edges, we can also define a planar ...

Monadic Second-Order Logics with Cardinalities

2003
We delimit the boundary between decidability versus undecidability of the weak monadic second-order logic of one successor (WS1S) extended with linear cardinality constraints of the form |X1|+...+|Xr| < |Y1|+...+|Ys|, where the Xis and Yjs range over finite subsets of natural numbers.

On the existence of a modal-logical basis for monadic second-order logic

Journal of Logic and Computation, 2012
Kamp (PhD Thesis, University of California, LA) proved that the tense logic of the connectives Until and Since is expressively complete over the class DCLO of Dedekind complete linear orders in the sense that this logic can express exactly the same conditions over DCLO as first-order logic.

The modular decomposition of countable graphs. Definition and construction in monadic second-order logic

open access: yesTheoretical Computer Science, 2008
International audienceWe consider the notion of modular decomposition for countable graphs. The modular decomposition of a graph given with an enumeration of its set of vertices, can be defined by formulas of Monadic Second-Order logic. Another result is

Monadic second-order logic and hypergraph orientation

[1993] Proceedings Eighth Annual IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science, 2002
It is proved that in every undirected graph or, more generally, in every undirected hypergraph of bounded rank, one can specify an orientation of the edges or hyperedges by monadic second-order formulas using quantifications on sets of edges or hyperedges.

Measure Quantifier in Monadic Second Order Logic

2015
We study the extension of Monadic Second Order logic with the “for almost all” quantifier \(\forall ^{=1}\) whose meaning is, informally, that \(\forall ^{=1}X.\phi (X)\) holds if \(\phi (X)\) holds almost surely for a randomly chosen X. We prove that the theory of \(\mathrm {MSO}+\forall ^{=1}\) is undecidable both when interpreted on \((\omega ,

Interpreting second-order logic in the monadic theory of order

Journal of Symbolic Logic, 1983
AbstractUnder a weak set-theoretic assumption we interpret second-order logic in the monadic theory of order.

Sequentiality, second order monadic logic and tree automata

Proceedings of Tenth Annual IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science, 2002
Given a term rewriting system R and a normalizable term t, a redex is needed if in any reduction sequence of t to a normal for m, this redex will be contracted. Roughly, R is sequential if there is an optimal reduction strategy in which only needed redexes are contracted. More generally, G. Huet and J.-J.

Baire Category Quantifier in Monadic Second Order Logic

2015
We consider Rabin's Monadic Second Order logic MSO of the full binary tree extended with Harvey Friedman's "for almost all" second-order quantifier $$\forall ^*$$ with semantics given in terms of Baire Category. In Theorem 1 we prove that the new quantifier can be eliminated $$\text {MSO}\!+\!\forall ^* \!=\! \text {MSO}$$. We then apply this result to
