A lot of research activity has recently taken place around the chase procedure, due to its usefulness in data integration, data exchange, query optimization, peer data exchange and data correspondence, to mention a few. As the chase has…
We give a criterion for a collection of polynomials to be a universal Gr\"{o}bner basis for an ideal in terms of the multidegree of the closure of the corresponding affine variety in $(\mathbb{P}^1)^N$. This criterion can be used to give…
For logic programs with arithmetic predicates, showing termination is not easy, since the usual order for the integers is not well-founded. A new method, easily incorporated in the TermiLog system for automatic termination analysis, is…
Compiler correctness proofs for higher-order concurrent languages are difficult: they involve establishing a termination-preserving refinement between a concurrent high-level source language and an implementation that uses low-level shared…
We report on our experiences exploring state of the art Groebner basis computation. We investigate signature based algorithms in detail. We also introduce new practical data structures and computational techniques for use in both signature…
Completion is a well-known transformation that captures the stable model semantics of logic programs by turning a program into a set of first-order definitions. Stable models are models of the completion, but not all models of the…
Proving program termination is key to guaranteeing absence of undesirable behaviour, such as hanging programs and even security vulnerabilities such as denial-of-service attacks. To make termination checks scale to large systems,…
Solving a polynomial system, or computing an associated Gr\"obner basis, has been a fundamental task in computational algebra. However, it is also known for its notorious doubly exponential time complexity in the number of variables in the…
We develop a Gr\"obner basis theory for a class of algebras that generalizes both PBW-algebras and rings of differential algebras on smooth varieties. Emphasis lies on methods to compute filtrations and graded structures defined by weight…
Incremental gradient and incremental proximal methods are a fundamental class of optimization algorithms used for solving finite sum problems, broadly studied in the literature. Yet, without strong convexity, their convergence guarantees…
There is growing interest in termination reasoning for non-linear programs and, meanwhile, recent dynamic strategies have shown they are able to infer invariants for such challenging programs. These advances led us to hypothesize that…
Randomized higher-order computation can be seen as being captured by a lambda calculus endowed with a single algebraic operation, namely a construct for binary probabilistic choice. What matters about such computations is the probability of…
In this paper we present a new termination proof and complexity analysis of unfolding graph rewriting which is a specific kind of infinite graph rewriting expressing the general form of safe recursion. We introduce a termination order over…
Solving zero-dimensional polynomial systems using Gr\"obner bases is usually done by, first, computing a Gr\"obner basis for the degree reverse lexicographic order, and next computing the lexicographic Gr\"obner basis with a change of order…
This paper presents an extension of a recently developed high order finite difference method for the wave equation on a grid with non-conforming interfaces. The stability proof of the existing methods relies on the interpolation operators…
In this paper we study the computational feasibility of an algorithm to prove orbifold equivalence between potentials describing Landau-Ginzburg models. Through a comparison with leading results of Groebner basis computations in cryptology,…
The Guarded Fragment (GF) is a well-established decidable fragment of first-order logic. We study an extension of GF with nested equivalence relations, namely a family of distinguished binary predicates $E_1, E_2, \dots$ interpreted as…
When applying Grover's algorithm to an unordered database, the probability of obtaining correct results usually decreases as the quantity of target increases. To amend the limitation, numbers of improved schemes are proposed. In this paper,…
