We introduce ordinal collapsing principles that are inspired by proof theory but have a set theoretic flavor. These principles are shown to be equivalent to iterated $\Pi^1_1$-comprehension and the existence of admissible sets, over weak…
The newly proposed Generalized Referring Expression Segmentation (GRES) amplifies the formulation of classic RES by involving complex multiple/non-target scenarios. Recent approaches address GRES by directly extending the well-adopted RES…
We present an approach to automatically synthesise recursive predicates in Separation Logic (SL) from concrete data structure instances using Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) techniques. The main challenges to make such synthesis effective…
Since the introduction of the Ideal Proof System (IPS) by Grochow and Pitassi (J. ACM 2018), a substantial body of work has established size lower bounds for IPS and its fragments. In particular, Forbes, Shpilka, Tzameret, and Wigderson…
We investigate the size complexity of proofs in $Res(s)$ -- an extension of Resolution working on $s$-DNFs instead of clauses -- for families of contradictions given in the {\em unusual binary} encoding. A motivation of our work is size…
We show that Cutting Planes (CP) proofs are hard to find: Given an unsatisfiable formula $F$, 1) It is NP-hard to find a CP refutation of $F$ in time polynomial in the length of the shortest such refutation; and 2)unless Gap-Hitting-Set…
This paper develops an algorithmic-based approach for proving inductive properties of propositional sequent systems such as admissibility, invertibility, cut-elimination, and identity expansion. Although undecidable in general, these…
JSON Schema is the de facto standard for describing the structure of JSON documents. Reasoning about JSON Schema inclusion -- whether every instance satisfying a schema S1 also satisfies a schema S2 -- is a key building block for a variety…
We prove that the graph tautology formulas of Alekhnovich, Johannsen, Pitassi, and Urquhart have polynomial size pool resolution refutations that use only input lemmas as learned clauses and without degenerate resolution inferences. We also…
The purpose of this paper is to develop and study recursive proofs of coinductive predicates. Such recursive proofs allow one to discover proof goals in the construction of a proof of a coinductive predicate, while still allowing the use of…
The main goal of this paper is to investigate the order reduction phenomenon that appears in the integral deferred correction (InDC) methods based on implicit-explicit (IMEX) Runge-Kutta (R-K) schemes when applied to a class of stiff…
We introduce two hierarchies of clause-sets, SLUR_k and UC_k, based on the classes SLUR (Single Lookahead Unit Refutation), introduced in 1995, and UC (Unit refutation Complete), introduced in 1994. The class SLUR, introduced in [Annexstein…
Although it is important both in theory as well as in applications, a theory of Birkhoff interpolation with main emphasis on the shape of the set of nodes is still missing. Although we will consider various shapes (e.g. we find all the…
This paper proposes a type-and-effect system called Teqt, which distinguishes terminating terms and total functions from possibly diverging terms and partial functions, for a lambda calculus with general recursion and equality types. The…
In this study, we propose the lopsided HSS (LHSS) iteration method for solving a class of complex symmetric indefinite systems of linear equations. This method employs an alternating iterative scheme, where each iteration entails solving…
A parameterised Boolean equation system (PBES) is a set of equations that defines sets as the least and/or greatest fixed-points that satisfy the equations. This system is regarded as a declarative program defining functions that take a…
Although neural module networks have an architectural bias towards compositionality, they require gold standard layouts to generalize systematically in practice. When instead learning layouts and modules jointly, compositionality does not…
This paper develops a novel nested sequent proof-search methodology for intuitionistic tense logics (ITLs), supporting finite counter-model extraction. We introduce a new loop-checking method that detects repeating nested sequents using…
Bidirectional Transformer architectures are state-of-the-art sequential recommendation models that use a bi-directional representation capacity based on the Cloze task, a.k.a. Masked Language Modeling. The latter aims to predict randomly…
The calculus of looping sequences is a formalism for describing the evolution of biological systems by means of term rewriting rules. We enrich this calculus with a type discipline to guarantee the soundness of reduction rules with respect…
