Automatic differentiation (AD) is a range of algorithms to compute the numeric value of a function's (partial) derivative, where the function is typically given as a computer program or abstract syntax tree. AD has become immensely popular…

Weighted automata is a basic tool for specification in quantitative verification, which allows to express quantitative features of analysed systems such as resource consumption. Quantitative specification can be assisted by automata…
Universal Deformation Formulas (UDFs) for the deformation of associative algebras play a key role in deformation quantization. Here we present examples for certain classes of infinitesimals. A basic representable 2-cocycle $F$ of an…
