Formalised libraries of combinatorial mathematics have rapidly expanded over the last five years, but few use one of the most important tools: probability. How can often intuitive probabilistic arguments on the existence of combinatorial…
This study investigates the effectiveness of reinforcement learning (RL) fine-tuning techniques on a compact language model (Qwen2.5-0.5B Base) for two challenging tasks: instruction following and mathematical reasoning. We compare…
The use of Extended Logics to replace ordinary second order definability in Kleene's {\em Ramified Analytical Hierarchy} is investigated. This mirrors a similar investigation of Kennedy, Magidor and V\"a\"an\"anen \cite{KeMaVa2016} where…
This work has two contributions. The first one is extending the Large Deviation Principle for uniform hyper-graphons from Lubetzky and Zhao \cite{lubetzky2015replica} to the multi-relational setting where each hyper-graphon can have…
We show how categorial deduction can be implemented in higher-order (linear) logic programming, thereby realising parsing as deduction for the associative and non-associative Lambek calculi. This provides a method of solution to the parsing…
Exploration is essential in modern learning, from reinforcement learning environments with small neural policies to large language models (LLMs). Existing work, such as DPO, leverages full sequence log-likelihoods to capture an entire…
We aim at a holistic perspective on program logics, including Hoare and incorrectness logics. To this end, we study different classes of properties arising from the generalization of the aforementioned logics. We compare our results with…
The well-known graph-based clustering methods, including spectral clustering, symmetric non-negative matrix factorization, and doubly stochastic normalization, can be viewed as relaxations of the kernel $k$-means approach. However, we posit…
In the literature on Kleene algebra, a number of variants have been proposed which impose additional structure specified by a theory, such as Kleene algebra with tests (KAT) and the recent Kleene algebra with observations (KAO), or make…
Recently an extension to higher-order logic -- called DHOL -- was introduced, enriching the language with dependent types, and creating a powerful extensional type theory. In this paper we propose two ways how choice can be added to DHOL.…
Kleene algebra with tests (KAT) is an equational system for program verification, which is the combination of Boolean algebra (BA) and Kleene algebra (KA), the algebra of regular expressions. In particular, KAT subsumes the propositional…
Discovering the underlying structures present in large real world graphs is a fundamental scientific problem. In this paper we show that a graph's clique tree can be used to extract a hyperedge replacement grammar. If we store an ordering…
In (Van Benthem, 1991) it is proved that all permutation closures of context-free languages can be generated by grammars over the Lambek calculus with the permutation rule (LP-grammars); however, to our best knowledge, it is not established…
We present simple new Hoare logics and refinement calculi for hybrid systems in the style of differential dynamic logic. (Refinement) Kleene algebra with tests is used for reasoning about the program structure and generating verification…
A grammar formalism based upon CHR is proposed analogously to the way Definite Clause Grammars are defined and implemented on top of Prolog. These grammars execute as robust bottom-up parsers with an inherent treatment of ambiguity and a…
We refine the weighted type graph technique for proving termination of double pushout (DPO) graph transformation systems. We increase the power of the approach for graphs, we generalize the technique to other categories, and we allow for…
We introduce proper display calculi for intuitionistic, bi-intuitionistic and classical linear logics with exponentials, which are sound, complete, conservative, and enjoy cut-elimination and subformula property. Based on the same design,…
Cross-lingual word embeddings (CLWE) underlie many multilingual natural language processing systems, often through orthogonal transformations of pre-trained monolingual embeddings. However, orthogonal mapping only works on language pairs…
Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) has been successfully used to align large language models (LLMs) according to human preferences, and more recently it has also been applied to improving the quality of text-to-image diffusion models.…
The linguistic applications of the Lambek calculus suggest its semantics over algebras of formal languages. A straightforward approach to construct such semantics indeed yields a brilliant completeness theorem (Pentus 1995). However,…
