It is shown that the finite satisfiability problem for two-variable logic over structures with one total preorder relation, its induced successor relation, one linear order relation and some further unary relations is EXPSPACE-complete.…
We consider the extension of two variable logic with quantifiers that state that the number of elements where a formula holds should belong to a given ultimately periodic set. We show that both satisfiability and finite satisfiability of…
In this paper we prove that the uniform one-dimensional guarded fragment, which is a natural polyadic generalization of the guarded two-variable logic, has the Craig interpolation property. We will also prove that the satisfiability problem…
The Quantified Constraint Satisfaction Problem is the problem of evaluating a sentence with both quantifiers, over relations from some constraint language, with conjunction as the only connective. We show that for any constraint language on…
We study the precise computational complexity of deciding satisfiability of first-order quantified formulas over the theory of fixed-size bit-vectors with binary-encoded bit-widths and constants. This problem is known to be in EXPSPACE and…
We call a first-order formula one-dimensional if its every maximal block of existential (universal) quantifiers leaves at most one variable free. We consider the one-dimensional restrictions of the guarded fragment, GF, and the tri-guarded…
We study the exponential time complexity of approximate counting satisfying assignments of CNFs. We reduce the problem to deciding satisfiability of a CNF. Our reduction preserves the number of variables of the input formula and thus also…
We study constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) in the presence of counting quantifiers $\exists^{\geq j}$, asserting the existence of $j$ distinct witnesses for the variable in question. As a continuation of our previous (CSR 2012) paper,…
Recently, the separated fragment (SF) has been introduced and proved to be decidable. Its defining principle is that universally and existentially quantified variables may not occur together in atoms. The known upper bound on the time…
We settle the complexity of satisfiability, finite-state satisfiability, and model-checking for several fragments of second-order HyperLTL, which extends HyperLTL with quantification over sets of traces: they are all in the analytical…
We investigate the complexity of satisfiability for finite-variable fragments of propositional dynamic logics. We consider three formalisms belonging to three representative complexity classes, broadly understood,---regular PDL, which is…
We study the satisfiability problem of symbolic finite automata and decompose it into the satisfiability problem of the theory of the input characters and the monadic second-order theory of the indices of accepted words. We use our…
We study the realizability problem for Safety LTL, the syntactic fragment of Linear Temporal Logic capturing safe formulas. We show that the problem is EXP-complete, disproving the existing conjecture of 2EXP-completeness. We achieve this…
We consider the problem of determining, given x, y in Z^k and a finite set F of affine functions on Z^k, whether y is reachable from x by applying the functions F. We also consider the analogous problem over N^k. These problems are known to…
We prove the EXPTIME-hardness of the validity problem for the basic temporal logic on Minkowski spacetime with more than one space dimension. We prove this result for both the lightspeed-or-slower and the slower-than-light accessibility…
It is known due to the work of Van den Broeck et al [KR, 2014] that weighted first-order model counting (WFOMC) in the two-variable fragment of first-order logic can be solved in time polynomial in the number of domain elements. In this…
In this paper we consider a fragment of the first-order theory of the real numbers that includes systems of equations of continuous functions in bounded domains, and for which all functions are computable in the sense that it is possible to…
The constraint satisfaction problem, parameterized by a relational structure, provides a general framework for expressing computational decision problems. Already the restriction to the class of all finite structures forms an interesting…
The finite satisfiability problem of two-variable logic extended by a linear order successor and a preorder successor is shown to be undecidable.
Open-world query answering is the problem of deciding, given a set of facts, conjunction of constraints, and query, whether the facts and constraints imply the query. This amounts to reasoning over all instances that include the facts and…
