A major part of computability theory focuses on the analysis of a few structures of central importance. As a tool, the method of coding with first-order formulas has been applied with great success. For instance, in the c.e. Turing degrees,…

One often wishes for the ability to formally analyze large-scale systems---typically, however, one can either formally analyze a rather small system or informally analyze a large-scale system. This work tries to further close this…
Pushdown systems (PDSs) are a natural model for sequential programs, but they can fail to accurately represent the way an assembly stack actually operates. Indeed, one may want to access the part of the memory that is below the current…

Let $V$ be a finite relational vocabulary in which no symbol has arity greater than 2. Let $M$ be countable $V$-structure which is homogeneous, simple and 1-based. The first main result says that if $M$ is, in addition, primitive, then it…

Reachability analysis is a powerful tool for computing the set of states or outputs reachable for a system. While previous work has focused on systems described by state-space models, we present the first methods to compute reachable sets…
Boolean programs with multiple recursive threads can be captured as pushdown automata with multiple stacks. This model is Turing complete, and hence, one is often interested in analyzing a restricted class that still captures useful…
The problem of computing the reachable set for a given system is a quintessential question in nonlinear control theory. While previous work has yielded a plethora of approximate and analytical methods for determining such a set, these…
In real world applications, uncertain parameters are the rule rather than the exception. We present a reachability algorithm for linear systems with uncertain parameters and inputs using set propagation of polynomial zonotopes. In contrast…

We perform a refined complexity-theoretic analysis of three classical problems in the context of Hierarchical Task Network Planning: the verification of a provided plan, whether an executable plan exists, and whether a given state can be…
In this paper we propose an improvement for flowpipe-construction-based reachability analysis techniques for hybrid systems. Such methods apply iterative successor computations to pave the reachable region of the state space by state sets…
