Modal and guarded characterisation theorems over finite transition systemsProceedings - Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - - Trang 371-380
M. Otto
Characterisation theorems for modal and guarded fragments of first-order logic are explored over finite transition systems. We show that the classical characterisations in terms of semantic invariance under the appropriate forms of bisimulation equivalence can be recovered at the level of finite model theory. The new, more constructive proofs naturally extend to alternative proofs of the classical...... hiện toàn bộ

The powerdomain of indexed valuationsProceedings - Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - - Trang 299-308
D. Varacca
This paper is about combining nondeterminism and probabilities. We study this phenomenon from a domain theoretic point of view. In domain theory, nondeterminism is modeled using the notion of powerdomain, while probability is modeled using the powerdomain of valuations. Those two functors do not combine well, as they are. We define the notion of powerdomain of indexed valuations, which can be comb...... hiện toàn bộ

Games on graphs and sequentially realizable functionals. Extended abstractProceedings - Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - - Trang 257-264
M. Hyland, A. Schalk
We present a new category of games on graphs and derive from it a model for Intuitionistic Linear Logic. Our category has the computational flavour of concrete data structures but embeds fully and faithfully in an abstract games model. It differs markedly from the usual Intuitionistic Linear Logic setting for sequential algorithms. However, we show that with a natural exponential we obtain a model...... hiện toàn bộ

On the lambda Y calculusProceedings - Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - - Trang 159-166
R. Statman
In this paper we consider three problems concerning the lambda Y calculus obtained from the simply typed lambda calculus by the addition of fixed point combinators Y: (A/spl rarr/A)/spl rarr/A. The "paradoxical" combinator Y was first discussed in by Curry & Feys Vol 1 (1958). It appears first in a typed context by A. Scott (1969) and also by R. Platek's thesis (1963), and forms the basis for L. C...... hiện toàn bộ

The proof complexity of linear algebraProceedings - Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - - Trang 335-344
M. Soltys, S. Cook
We introduce three formal theories of increasing strength for linear algebra in order to study the complexity of the concepts needed to prove the basic theorems of the subject. We give what is apparently the first feasible proofs of the Cayley-Hamilton theorem and other properties of the determinant, and study the propositional proof complexity of matrix identities.

Decidable and undecidable fragments of first-order branching temporal logicsProceedings - Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - - Trang 393-402
I. Hodkinson, F. Wolter, M. Zakharyaschev
In this paper we analyze the decision problem for fragments of first-order extensions of branching time temporal logics such as computational tree logics CTL and CTL* or Prior's Ockhamist logic of historical necessity. On the one hand, we show that the one-variable fragments of logics like first-order CTL*-such as the product of propositional CTL* with simple propositional modal logic S5, or even ...... hiện toàn bộ

Unsatisfiable random formulas are hard to certifyProceedings - Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - - Trang 325-334
A. Atserias
We prove that every property of 3CNF formulas that implies unsatisfiability and is expressible in Datalog has asymptotic probability zero when formulas are randomly generated by taking 6n non-trivial clauses of exactly three literals uniformly and independently. Our result is a consequence of designing a winning strategy for Duplicator in the existential k-pebble game on the structure that encodes...... hiện toàn bộ

A stratified semantics of general references embeddable in higher-order logicProceedings - Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - - Trang 75-86
A.J. Ahmed, A.W. Appel, R. Virga
We demonstrate a semantic model of general references - that is, mutable memory cells that may contain values of any (statically-checked) closed type, including other references. Our model is in terms of execution sequences on a von Neumann machine; thus, it can be used in a Proof-Carrying Code system where the skeptical consumer checks even the proofs of the typing rules. The model allows us to p...... hiện toàn bộ

Polarized gamesProceedings - Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - - Trang 265-274
O. Laurent
We generalize the intuitionistic Hyland-Ong games to a notion of polarized games allowing games with plays starting by proponent moves. The usual constructions on games are adjusted to fit this setting yielding a game model for polarized linear logic with a definability result. As a consequence this gives a complete game model for various classical systems: LC, /spl lambda//spl mu/-calculus,... fo...... hiện toàn bộ

Some results on automatic structuresProceedings - Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - - Trang 235-242
H. Ishihara, B. Khoussainov, S. Rubin
We study the class of countable structures which can be presented by synchronous finite automata. We reduce the problem of existence of an automatic presentation of a structure to that for a graph. We exhibit a series of properties of automatic equivalence structures, linearly ordered sets and permutation structures. These serve as a first step in producing practical descriptions of some automatic...... hiện toàn bộ
