In this paper, a class of combinatorial identities is proved. A method is used which is based on the following rule: counting elements of a given set in two ways and making equal the obtained results. This rule is known as "counting in two…
In this paper we consider first-order logic theorem proving and model building via approximation and instantiation. Given a clause set we propose its approximation into a simplified clause set where satisfiability is decidable. The…
We develop a family of simple rank one theories built over quite arbitrary sequences of finite hypergraphs. (This extends an idea from the recent proof that Keisler's order has continuum many classes, however, the construction does not…
Craig interpolation is a fundamental property of classical and non-classic logics with a plethora of applications from philosophical logic to computer-aided verification. The question of which interpolants can be obtained from an…
This paper introduces a simple type system for combinatory logic in which combinators have at most one type, whose polymorphism is revealed by application. The combinatory types exactly describe the structure of their values, which may be…
The consistency of a second-order version of a theorem of Morley on the number of countable models was proved in arXiv:2107.07636 with the aid of large cardinals. We here dispense with them.
We say that a logic L has the Lyndon positivity property (LPP) if all formulas which are monotone in L (that is, are preserved under increasing the valuation on L-algebras) are L-equivalent to positive formulas (formulas without negation…
The main purpose of this work is to introduce and analyse some generalizations of diverse superposition rules for first-order differential equations to the setting of second-order differential equations. As a result, we find a way to apply…
In the first part, in the local non archimedean case, we consider distributions on GL(n+1) which are invariant under the adjoint action of GL(n). We conjecture that such distributions are invariant by transposition. This would imply…
We will investigate proof-theoretic and linguistic aspects of first-order linear logic. We will show that adding partial order constraints in such a way that each sequent defines a unique linear order on the antecedent formulas of a sequent…
A monotone grid class is a permutation class (i.e., a downset of permutations under the containment order) defined by local monotonicity conditions. We give a simplified proof of a result of Murphy and Vatter that monotone grid classes of…
Mixed superposition rules, i.e., functions describing the general solution of a system of first-order differential equations in terms of a generic family of particular solutions of first-order systems and some constants, are studied. The…
Semi-algebraic proof systems such as sum-of-squares (SoS) have attracted a lot of attention recently due to their relation to approximation algorithms: constant degree semi-algebraic proofs lead to conjecturally optimal polynomial-time…
We give a simple and direct proof that super-consistency implies the cut elimination property in deduction modulo. This proof can be seen as a simplification of the proof that super-consistency implies proof normalization. It also takes…
We prove the existence of positive solutions for a class of semipositone problem with singular Trudinger-Moser nonlinearities. The proof is based on compactness and regularity arguments.
We study interpolant extraction from local first-order refutations. We present a new theoretical perspective on interpolation based on clearly separating the condition on logical strength of the formula from the requirement on the com- mon…
The Jacobian Conjecture has been reduced to the symmetric homogeneous case. In this paper we give an inversion formula for the symmetric case and relate it to a combinatoric structure called the Grossman-Larson Algebra. We use these tools…
We show that constructible models of arbitrary complete continuous first-order theories are unique up to isomorphism.
We prove the uniform interpolation theorem in modal provability logics GL and Grz by a proof-theoretical method, using analytical and terminating sequent calculi for the logics. The calculus for G\"odel-L\"ob's logic GL is a variant of the…
Some superlinear fourth order elliptic equations are considered. Ground states are proved to exist and to concentrate at a point in the limit. The proof relies on variational methods, where the existence and concentration of nontrivial…
