Logically constrained term rewriting systems (LCTRSs) are a program analyzing formalism with native support for data types which are not (co)inductively defined. As a first-order formalism, LCTRSs have accommodated only analysis of…
The notion of computability closure has been introduced for proving the termination of the combination of higher-order rewriting and beta-reduction. It is also used for strengthening the higher-order recursive path ordering. In the present…
This paper aims at carrying out termination proofs for simply typed higher-order calculi automatically by using ordering comparisons. To this end, we introduce the computability path ordering (CPO), a recursive relation on terms obtained by…
In this short paper, we present a simple variant of the recursive path ordering, specified for Logically Constrained Simply Typed Rewriting Systems (LCSTRSs). This is a method for curried systems, without lambda but with partially applied…
We establish primitive recursive versions of some known facts about computable ordered fields of reals and computable reals, and then apply them to proving primitive recursiveness of some natural problems in linear algebra and analysis. In…
This seminar report is concerned with expressing LPO-termination of term rewrite systems as a satisfiability problem in propositional logic. After relevant algorithms are explained, experimental results are reported.
This paper provides a new, decidable definition of the higher- order recursive path ordering in which type comparisons are made only when needed, therefore eliminating the need for the computability clo- sure, and bound variables are…
We introduce syntactic restrictions of the lexicographic path ordering to obtain the Light Lexicographic Path Ordering. We show that the light lexicographic path ordering leads to a characterisation of the functions computable in space…
Usual termination proofs for a functional program require to check all the possible reduction paths. Due to an exponential gap between the height and size of such the reduction tree, no naive formalization of termination proofs yields a…
Lexicographic multi-objective problems, which impose a lexicographic importance order over the objectives, arise in many real-life scenarios. Existing Reinforcement Learning work directly addressing lexicographic tasks has been scarce. The…
This paper introduces a new kind of propositional encoding for reasoning about partial orders. The symbols in an unspecified partial order are viewed as variables which take integer values and are interpreted as indices in the order. For a…
This paper is concerned with the automated complexity analysis of term rewrite systems (TRSs for short) and the ramification of these in implicit computational complexity theory (ICC for short). We introduce a novel path order with multiset…
Adopting former term rewriting characterisations of polytime and exponential-time computable functions, we introduce a new reduction order, the Path Order for ETIME (POE* for short), that is sound and complete for ETIME computable…
In this work we generalize primitive recursion in order to construct a hierarchy of terminating total recursive operators which we refer to as {\em leveled primitive recursion of order $i$}($\mathbf{PR}_{i}$). Primitive recursion is…
We propose a new order, the small polynomial path order (sPOP* for short). The order sPOP* provides a characterisation of the class of polynomial time computable function via term rewrite systems. Any polynomial time computable function…
Logical formalisms provide a natural and concise means for specifying and reasoning about preferences. In this paper, we propose lexicographic logic, an extension of classical propositional logic that can express a variety of preferences,…
In this article, we study some new characterizations of primitive recursive functions based on restricted forms of primitive recursion, improving the pioneering work of R. M. Robinson and M. D. Gladstone in this area. We reduce certain…
We introduce a reduction order called the weighted path order (WPO) that subsumes many existing reduction orders. WPO compares weights of terms as in the Knuth-Bendix order (KBO), while WPO allows weights to be computed by a wide class of…
Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) significantly enhances the reasoning capability of Large Language Models (LLMs). Current RLVR approaches typically conduct training across all generated tokens, but neglect to explore…
This paper is concerned with the complexity analysis of constructor term rewrite systems and its ramification in implicit computational complexity. We introduce a path order with multiset status, the polynomial path order POP*, that is…
