For those of us who generally live in the world of syntax, semantic proof techniques such as reducibility, realizability or logical relations seem somewhat magical despite -- or perhaps due to -- their seemingly unreasonable effectiveness.…

We introduce a technique for synthesis of control and communication strategies for a team of agents from a global task specification given as a Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) formula over a set of properties that can be satisfied by the…

Syntactic obligations are a fragment of LTL formulas that translate to deterministic weak $\omega$-automata (DWA). We show that syntactic obligations can be very efficiently converted to minimal DWA represented using multi-terminal binary…

We clarify the notion of Wilsonian renormalization group (RG) invariance in supersymmetric gauge theories, which states that the low-energy physics can be kept fixed when one changes the ultraviolet cutoff, provided appropriate changes are…

We will examine a particular mathematical derivation in a paper by P. Falkensteiner and H. Grosse (F&G) [1]. In [1] a quantity "delta(A)" is defined. This quantity is generated when the normal ordered generalized charge operator undergoes a…

Timed Automata (TA) are a very popular modeling formalism for systems with time-sensitive properties. A common task is to verify if a network of TA satisfies a given property, usually expressed in Linear Temporal Logic (LTL), or in a subset…

The paper is a contribution both to the theoretical foundations and to the actual construction of efficient automatizable proof procedures for non-classical logics. We focus here on the case of finite-valued logics, and exhibit: (i) a…

We propose a lazy decision procedure for the logic WSkS. It builds a term-based symbolic representation of the state space of the tree automaton (TA) constructed by the classical WSkS decision procedure. The classical decision procedure…
