We investigate the complexity of isomorphism relations for classes of finitely generated and n-generated computably enumerable (c.e.) algebras, presented via c.e. presentations -- that is, as quotients of term algebras over decidable sets…

Automatic structures are finitely presented structures where the universe and all relations can be recognized by finite automata. It is known that the isomorphism problem for automatic structures is complete for $\Sigma^1_1$; the first…

To any fixed, finite relational structure, $\mathbb{D}$, there is an associated decision problem, CSP$(\mathbb{D})$, which is a restricted version of the constraint satisfaction problem. In [8], the so called "algebraic approach" to the…

We explore new interactions between finite model theory and classical streams of universal algebra and semigroup theory. A key result is an example of finite algebras whose variety is not finitely axiomatisable in first order logic, but…

We propose a polynomial time $f$-algorithm (a deterministic algorithm which uses an oracle for factoring univariate polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$) for computing an isomorphism (if there is any) of a finite dimensional…

The mod-p cohomology ring of a non-trivial finite p-group is an infinite dimensional, finitely presented graded unital algebra over the field with p elements, with generators in positive degrees. We describe an effective algorithm to test…

We study the topological $\mu$-calculus, based on both Cantor derivative and closure modalities, proving completeness, decidability and FMP over general topological spaces, as well as over $T_0$ and $T_D$ spaces. We also investigate…

In this paper two algorithms solving circuit satisfiability problem over supernilpotent algebras are presented. The first one is deterministic and is faster than fastest previous algorithm presented by Aichinger. The second one is…

We deal with equations over free semilattice of infinite rank and prove that any infinite consistent system of equations is equivalent to its finite subsystem. Moreover, we describe irreducible algebraic sets and solve some algorithmic…

This paper studies the complexity of query evaluation for databases whose relations are partially ordered; the problem commonly arises when combining or transforming ordered data from multiple sources. We focus on queries in a useful…

Combining two results from machine learning theory we prove that a formula is NIP if and only if it satisfies uniform definability of types over finite sets (UDTFS). This settles a conjecture of Laskowski.

We study the finite satisfiability problem for the two-variable fragment of first-order logic extended with counting quantifiers (C2) and interpreted over linearly ordered structures. We show that the problem is undecidable in the case of…

An algorithm to decide the emptiness of a regular type expression with set operators given a set of parameterised type definitions is presented. The algorithm can also be used to decide the equivalence of two regular type expressions and…
