In this article, the decidability and computability issues of dynamic probability logic (DPL) are addressed. Firstly, a proof system $\mathcal{H}_{DPL}$ is introduced for DPL and shown that it is weakly complete. Furthermore, this logic has…

We study the complexity of computational problems arising from existence theorems in extremal combinatorics. For some of these problems, a solution is guaranteed to exist based on an iterated application of the Pigeonhole Principle. This…

We reformulate Pratt's tableau decision procedure of checking satisfiability of a set of formulas in PDL. Our formulation is simpler and more direct for implementation. Extending the method we give the first EXPTIME (optimal) tableau…

While looking for abductive explanations of a given set of manifestations, an ordering between possible solutions is often assumed. The complexity of finding/verifying optimal solutions is already known. In this paper we consider the…

It is well known that the resolution method (for propositional logic) is complete. However, completeness proofs found in the literature use an argument by contradiction showing that if a set of clauses is unsatisfiable, then it must have a…

Probabilistic inference is fundamentally hard, yet many tasks require optimization on top of inference, which is even harder. We present a new optimization-via-compilation strategy to scalably solve a certain class of such problems. In…

We present a tableau-based algorithm for deciding satisfiability for propositional dynamic logic (PDL) which builds a finite rooted tree with ancestor loops and passes extra information from children to parents to separate good loops from…

The system of Type PDL ($\tau$PDL) is an extension of Propositional Dynamic Logic (PDL) and its main goal is to provide a formal basis for reasoning about types of actions (modeled by their preconditions and effects) and agent capabilities.…

Many problems can be specified by patterns of propositional formulae depending on a parameter, e.g. the specification of a circuit usually depends on the number of bits of its input. We define a logic whose formulae, called "iterated…

This paper surveys results on complexity of the optimal recombination problem (ORP), which consists in finding the best possible offspring as a result of a recombination operator in a genetic algorithm, given two parent solutions. We…

In a seminal paper from 1985, Sistla and Clarke showed that satisfiability for Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) is either NP-complete or PSPACE-complete, depending on the set of temporal operators used. If, in contrast, the set of propositional…

We study the computational complexity of two hard problems on determinantal point processes (DPPs). One is maximum a posteriori (MAP) inference, i.e., to find a principal submatrix having the maximum determinant. The other is probabilistic…
