Characterizations of semi-stable and stage extensions in terms of 2-valued logical models are presented. To this end, the so-called GL-supported and GL-stage models are defined. These two classes of logical models are logic programming…

LTL3 is a multi-valued variant of Linear-time Temporal Logic for runtime verification applications. The semantic descriptions of LTL3 in previous work are given only in terms of the relationship to conventional LTL. Our approach, by…

We introduce new semi-algebraic proof systems for Quantified Boolean Formulas (QBF) analogous to the propositional systems Nullstellensatz, Sherali-Adams and Sum-of-Squares. We transfer to this setting techniques both from the QBF…

We define a fragment of propositional logic where isomorphic propositions, such as $A\land B$ and $B\land A$, or $A\Rightarrow (B\land C)$ and $(A\Rightarrow B)\land(A\Rightarrow C)$ are identified. We define System I, a proof language for…

The quasi-normal modal logic GLS is a provability logic formalizing the arithmetical truth. Kushida (2020) gave a sequent calculus for GLS and proved the cut-elimination theorem. This paper introduces semantical characterizations of GLS and…

We give a novel descriptive-complexity theoretic characterization of L and NL computable queries over finite structures using traversal invariance. We summarize this as (N)L = FO + (breadth-first) traversal-invariance.

Recent work on loglinear models in probabilistic constraint logic programming is applied to first-order probabilistic reasoning. Probabilities are defined directly on the proofs of atomic formulae, and by marginalisation on the atomic…

We establish new measures of linear independence of logarithms on commutative algebraic groups in the so-called \emph{rational case}. More precisely, let k be a number field and v_{0} be an arbitrary place of k. Let G be a commutative…
