We present guarded dependent type theory, gDTT, an extensional dependent type theory with a `later' modality and clock quantifiers for programming and proving with guarded recursive and coinductive types. The later modality is used to…

This paper analyzes the meeting time between a pair of pursuer and evader performing random walks on digraphs. The existing bounds on the meeting time usually work only for certain classes of walks and cannot be used to formulate…

We consider the problem of monitoring a Linear Time Logic (LTL) specification that is defined on infinite paths, over finite traces. For example, we may need to draw a verdict on whether the system satisfies or violates the property "p…

Without randomization, escaping the saddle points of $f \colon \mathbb{R}^d \to \mathbb{R}$ requires at least $\Omega(d)$ pieces of information about $f$ (values, gradients, Hessian-vector products). With randomization, this can be reduced…
