In this article we propose an extension to the typed natural deduction calculus TNDPQ to model verification of individual fairness and intersectionality in probabilistic classifiers. Their interpretation is obtained by formulating specific…

We present $\lambda_B$, a quantum-control $\lambda$-calculus that refines previous basis-sensitive systems by allowing abstractions to be expressed with respect to arbitrary -- possibly entangled -- bases. Each abstraction and let construct…

In this work, we propose the concept of Construction Defining Functionality (CDF), which characterizes functions by the structural spaces they generate through iteration,recursion, and logical application. By viewing functions as generators…

Most existing work on strategic reasoning simply adopts either an informed or an uninformed semantics. We propose a model where knowledge of strategies can be specified on a fine-grained level. In particular, it is possible to distinguish…

We extend Natural Deduction for intuitionistic logic with a third introduction rule for the disjunction, $\vee$-i3, with a conclusion $\Gamma\vdash A\vee B$, but both premises $\Gamma\vdash A$ and $\Gamma\vdash B$. This rule is admissible…

We introduce $\lambda$KBO and $\lambda$LPO, two variants of the Knuth-Bendix order (KBO) and the lexicographic path order (LPO) designed for use with the $\lambda$-superposition calculus. We establish the desired properties via encodings…

The $\lambda$-superposition calculus is a successful approach to proving higher-order formulas. However, some parts of the calculus are extremely explosive, notably due to the higher-order unifier enumeration and the functional…

In this paper, we generalize Pearl's do-calculus to an Intuitionistic setting called $j$-stable causal inference inside a topos of sheaves. Our framework is an elaboration of the recently proposed framework of Topos Causal Models (TCMs),…

We present two novel symbolic algorithms for model checking the Alternating-time Temporal Logic ATL*, over both the infinite-trace and the finite-trace semantics. In particular, for infinite traces we design a novel symbolic reduction to…

Cantor's ordinal numbers, a powerful extension of the natural numbers, are a cornerstone of set theory. They can be used to reason about the termination of processes, prove the consistency of logical systems, and justify some of the core…

Motivated by an application where we try to make proofs for Description Logic inferences smaller by rewriting, we consider the following decision problem, which we call the small term reachability problem: given a term rewriting system $R$,…

We present a categorical theory of the composition methods in finite model theory -- a key technique enabling modular reasoning about complex structures by building them out of simpler components. The crucial results required by the…

We present a streamlined and simplified exponential lower bound on the length of proofs in intuitionistic implicational logic, adapted to Gordeev and Haeusler's dag-like natural deduction.

As shown by Tsukada and Ong, simply-typed, normal and eta-long resource terms correspond to plays in Hyland-Ong games, quotiented by Melli\`es' homotopy equivalence. The original proof of this inspiring result is indirect, relying on the…

We introduce the tool HyperQB 2.0, the first highly efficient push-button bounded model checker (BMC) for hyperproperties. HyperQB takes as input a model in NuSMV or Verilog and a formula expressed in the temporal logics HyperLTL or A-HLTL.…

This paper presents a formal framework for sequencing instructions in AI agents, inspired by the Indian philosophical system of Mimamsa. The framework formalizes sequencing mechanisms through action object pairs in three distinct ways:…

We present a JIT PL semantics for ReLU-type networks that compiles models into a guarded CPWL transducer with shared guards. The system adds hyperplanes only when operands are affine on the current cell, maintains global lower/upper…

We reformulate recent advances in directed type theory--a type theory where the types have the structure of synthetic (higher) categories--as a logical calculus with multiple context 'zones', following the example of Pfenning and Davies.…

Explainability is emerging as a key requirement for autonomous systems. While many works have focused on what constitutes a valid explanation, few have considered formalizing explainability as a system property. In this work, we approach…

We present an approach to unsolvability certification of temporal planning. Our approach is based on encoding the planning problem into a network of timed automata, and then using an efficient model checker on the network followed by a…
