A general theme of computable structure theory is to investigate when structures have copies of a given complexity $\Gamma$. We discuss such problem for the case of equivalence structures and preorders. We show that there is a $\Pi^0_1$…
A set is introreducible if it can be computed by every infinite subset of itself. Such a set can be thought of as coding information very robustly. We investigate introreducible sets and related notions. Our two main results are that the…
We first show that infinite satisfiability can be reduced to finite satisfiability for all prenex formulas of Separation Logic with $k\geq1$ selector fields ($\seplogk{k}$). Second, we show that this entails the decidability of the finite…
The paper proves finite model property and decidability for a family of modal logics. A binary relation $R$ is called pretransitive, if $R^*=\cup_{i\leq m} R^i$ for some $m\geq 0$, where $R^*$ is the transitive reflexive closure of $R$. By…
For a partial order $\preceq$ on a set X and an equivalency relation S defined on the same set X we derive a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of such a total preorder on X whose asymmetric part contains the asymmetric…
This paper extends implication-space semantics to include first-order quantification. Implication-space semantics has recently been introduced as an inferentialist formal semantics that can capture nonmonotonic and nontransitive material…
The uniform one-dimensional fragment of first-order logic was introduced a few years ago as a generalization of the two-variable fragment of first-order logic to contexts involving relations of arity greater than two. Quantifiers in this…
One way of studying a relational structure is to investigate functions which are related to that structure and which leave certain aspects of the structure invariant. Examples are the automorphism group, the self-embedding monoid, the…
We introduce a quantum analogue of classical first-order logic (FO) and develop a theory of quantum first-order logic as a basis of the productive discussions on the power of logical expressiveness toward quantum computing. The purpose of…
We study the efficient approximability of basic graph and logic problems in the literature when instances are specified hierarchically as in \cite{Le89} or are specified by 1-dimensional finite narrow periodic specifications as in…
A first-order conditional logic is considered, with semantics given by a variant of epsilon-semantics, where p -> q means that Pr(q | p) approaches 1 super-polynomially --faster than any inverse polynomial. This type of convergence is…
We introduce a proper display calculus for first-order logic, of which we prove soundness, completeness, conservativity, subformula property and cut elimination via a Belnap-style metatheorem. All inference rules are closed under uniform…
We start the study of the enumeration complexity of different satisfiability problems in first-order team logics. Since many of our problems go beyond DelP, we use a framework for hard enumeration analogous to the polynomial hierarchy,…
Let $C^{pr}_m$ be the upper semilattice of degrees of computable sets with respect to primitive recursive $m$-reducibility. We prove that the first-order theory of $C^{pr}_m$ is hereditarily undecidable.
An alternative proof of the completeness of relational algebra with respect to allowed formulas of first-order logic is presented. The proof relies on the well-known embedding of relational algebra into cylindric algebra, which makes it…
We study effectively inseparable (e.i.) pre-lattices (i.e. structures of the form $L=\langle \omega, \wedge, \lor, 0, 1, \leq_L\rangle$ where $\omega$ denotes the set of natural numbers and the following hold: $\wedge, \lor$ are binary…
Many natural decision problems can be formulated as constraint satisfaction problems for reducts $\mathbb{A}$ of finitely bounded homogeneous structures. This class of problems is a large generalisation of the class of CSPs over finite…
This paper gives a thorough overview of what is known about first-order logic with counting quantifiers and with arithmetic predicates. As a main theorem we show that Presburger arithmetic is closed under unary counting quantifiers.…
A $\lambda$-calculus is introduced in which all programs can be evaluated in probabilistic polynomial time and in which there is sufficient structure to represent sequential cryptographic constructions and adversaries for them, even when…
The distinguishing result of this paper is a $\mathbf{P}$-time enumerable partition of all the potential perfect matchings in a bipartite graph. This partition is a set of equivalence classes induced by the missing edges in the potential…
