We present a model-based approach to learning robust runtime monitors for autonomous systems. Runtime monitors play a crucial role in raising the level of assurance by observing system behavior and predicting potential safety violations. In…

Models of High-level Computation (MHCs) provide effective means to describe complex real-world computing systems because they offer formal foundations for the specification of interacting computing devices, as opposed to describing…

Rewriting Induction (RI) is a principle to prove that an equation over terms is an inductive theorem of a rewrite system, i.e., that any ground instance of the equation is a theorem of the rewrite system. RI has been adapted to several…

There has been an increasing interest in topological semantics for epistemic logic, which has been shown to be useful for, e.g., modelling evidence, degrees of belief, and self-reference. We introduce a polytopological PDL capable of…

Stochastic multi-agent systems are a central modeling framework for autonomous controllers, communication protocols, and cyber-physical infrastructures. In many such systems, however, transition probabilities are only estimated from data…

In the last decade, a large body of work has emerged on robustness of neural networks, i.e., checking if the decision remains unchanged when the input is slightly perturbed. However, most of these approaches ignore the confidence of a…

The classical Kantorovich-Rubinstein duality guarantees coincidence between metrics on the space of probability distributions defined on the one hand via transport plans (couplings) and on the other hand via price functions. Both…

This paper introduces the hybrid quantum language with general recursion $\mathtt{Hyrql}$, driven towards resource-analysis. By design, $\mathtt{Hyrql}$ does not require the specification of an initial set of quantum gates. Hence, it is…

The formal analysis of automated systems is an important and growing industry. This activity routinely requires new verification frameworks to be developed to tackle new programming features, or new considerations (bugs of interest). Often,…

Whereas an extension with non-interference of Hoare logic for sequential programs Owicki--Gries logic ensures the correctness of concurrent programs on strict consistency, it is unsound to weak memory models adopted by modern computer…

Disjoint-paths logic, denoted $\mathsf{FO}$+$\mathsf{dp}$, extends first-order logic ($\mathsf{FO}$) with atomic predicates $\mathsf{dp}_r[(x_1,y_1),\ldots,(x_r,y_r)]$, expressing the existence of vertex-disjoint paths between $x_i$ and…

We introduce Euler/X, a toolkit for logic-based taxonomy integration. Given two taxonomies and a set of alignment constraints between them, Euler/X provides tools for detecting, explaining, and reconciling inconsistencies; finding all…

Distributive laws of set functors over the powerset monad (also known as Kleisli laws for the powerset monad) are well-known to be in one-to-one correspondence with extensions of set functors to functors on the category of sets and…

This paper establishes logical and expression-based characterizations for the class of languages recognized by nondeterministic register automata with guessing (NRA) over infinite alphabets. We introduce Scoped MSO, a logic featuring a…

Reynolds' parametricity originally equips types with proof-irrelevant binary propositional relations over the types. But such relations can also be taken proof-relevant or unary, and described either in an indexed or fibred way.…

Ill-founded (or non-wellfounded) proof systems have emerged as a natural framework for inductive and coinductive reasoning. In such systems, soundness relies on global correctness criteria, such as the progressivity condition. Ensuring that…

Given a sound first-order p-time theory $T$ capable of formalizing syntax of first-order logic we define a p-time function $g_T$ that stretches all inputs by one bit and we use its properties to show that $T$ must be incomplete. We leave it…

Behavioural distances generally offer more fine-grained means of comparing quantitative systems than two-valued behavioural equivalences. They often relate to quantitative modalities, which generate quantitative modal logics that…

Cyclic proof theory breaks tradition by allowing certain infinite proofs: those that can be represented by a finite graph, while satisfying a soundness condition. We reconcile cyclic proofs with traditional finite proofs: we extend abstract…

Presheaves and nominal sets provide alternative abstract models of sets of syntactic objects with free and bound variables, such as lambda-terms. One distinguishing feature of the presheaf-based perspective is its elegant syntax-free…
