Complementation of B\"uchi automata is an essential technique used in some approaches for termination analysis of programs. The long search for an optimal complementation construction climaxed with the work of Schewe, who proposed a…

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…

A deductive system is structurally complete if its admissible inference rules are derivable. For several important systems, like modal logic S5, failure of structural completeness is caused only by the underivability of passive rules, i.e.…

Most ideas about what an algorithm is are very similar. Basic operations are used for transforming objects. The evaluation of internal and external states by relations has impact on the further process. A more precise definition can lead to…

We investigate two constructive approaches to defining quasi-compact and quasi-separated schemes (qcqs-schemes), namely qcqs-schemes as locally ringed lattices and as functors from rings to sets. We work in Homotopy Type Theory and…

Predicate intuitionistic logic is a well established fragment of dependent types. According to the Curry-Howard isomorphism proof construction in the logic corresponds well to synthesis of a program the type of which is a given formula. We…

We discuss a technique, based on Angluin's algorithm, for automatically generating finite automata for various kinds of useful first-order logic formulas in B\"uchi arithmetic. Construction in this way can be faster and use much less space…

A constructive proof of the Goedel-Rosser incompleteness theorem has been completed using the Coq proof assistant. Some theory of classical first-order logic over an arbitrary language is formalized. A development of primitive recursive…

The theory of abstract argumentation frameworks (afs) has, in the main, focused on finite structures, though there are many significant contexts where argumentation can be regarded as a process involving infinite objects. To address this…

In this paper the notion of quantum finite one-counter automata (QF1CA) is introduced. Introduction of the notion is similar to that of the 2-way quantum finite state automata by A.Kondacs and J.Watrous. The well-formedness conditions for…

Finite automata (FA) are a fundamental computational abstraction that is widely used in practice for various tasks in computer science, linguistics, biology, electrical engineering, and artificial intelligence. Given an input word, an FA…

We give new constructions for complementing subclasses of Emerson-Lei automata using modifications of rank-based B\"uchi automata complementation. In particular, we propose a specialized rank-based construction for a Boolean combination of…

We characterize group representations that factor through monomial representations, respectively, block-triangular representations with monomial diagonal blocks, by arithmetic properties. Similar results are obtained for semigroup…

We follow a connection between tight determinisation and complementation and establish a complementation procedure from parity automata to nondeterministic B\"uchi automata and prove it to be tight up to an $O(n)$ factor, where $n$ is the…

Markov's principle is a statement that originated in the Russian school of Constructive Mathematics and stated originally that "if it is impossible that an algorithm does not terminate, then it will terminate". This principle has been…
