While the computation of Craig interpolants for description logics (DLs) with the Craig Interpolation Property (CIP) is well understood, very little is known about the computation and size of interpolants for DLs without CIP or if one aims…

Polylogarithmic time delineates a relevant notion of feasibility on several classical computational models such as Boolean circuits or parallel random access machines. As far as the quantum paradigm is concerned, this notion yields the…

Multi-agent systems (MASs) consisting of a number of autonomous agents that communicate, coordinate, and jointly sense the environment to achieve complex missions can be found in a variety of applications such as robotics, smart cities, and…

Windows have been introduce in \cite{BalGasq25} as a tool for designing polynomial algorithms to check satisfiability of a bimodal logic of weak-density. In this paper, after revisiting the ``folklore'' case of bimodal $\K4$ already treated…

This paper presents a novel symbolic algorithm for the Maximal End Component (MEC) decomposition of a Markov Decision Process (MDP). The key idea behind our algorithm INTERLEAVE is to interleave the computation of Strongly Connected…

We prove that for any integers $\alpha, \beta > 1$, the existential fragment of the first-order theory of the structure $\langle \mathbb{Z}; 0,1,<, +, \alpha^{\mathbb{N}}, \beta^{\mathbb{N}}\rangle$ is decidable (where $\alpha^{\mathbb{N}}$…

Semi-simplicial and semi-cubical sets are commonly defined as presheaves over respectively, the semi-simplex or semi-cube category. Homotopy Type Theory then popularized an alternative definition, where the set of n-simplices or n-cubes are…

For which unary predicates $P_1, \ldots, P_m$ is the MSO theory of the structure $\langle \mathbb{N}; <, P_1, \ldots, P_m \rangle$ decidable? We survey the state of the art, leading us to investigate combinatorial properties of…

Abductive forgetting is removing variables from a logical formula while maintaining its abductive explanations. It is carried in two alternative ways depending on its intended application. Both differ from the usual forgetting, which…

Propositional inquisitive logic is the limit of its $n$-bounded approximations. In the predicate setting, however, this does not hold anymore, as discovered by Ciardelli and Grilletti, who also found complete axiomatizations of $n$-bounded…

We explore the problem of explaining observations starting from a classically inconsistent theory by adopting a paraconsistent framework. We consider two expansions of the well-known Belnap--Dunn paraconsistent four-valued logic…

We present a novel approach to querying classical inconsistent description logic (DL) knowledge bases by adopting a~paraconsistent semantics with the four Belnapian values: exactly true ($\mathbf{T}$), exactly false ($\mathbf{F}$), both…

Earlier we introduced the notion of a stable set of points (SSP). We proved that a CNF formula is unsatisfiable iff there is a set of points (i.e. complete assignments) that is stable with respect to this formula. Experiments showed that…

We verify the correctness of a variety of mutual exclusion algorithms through model checking. We look at algorithms where communication is via shared read/write registers, where those registers can be atomic or non-atomic. For the…

We study randomized generation of sequences of test-inputs to a system using Prolog. Prolog is a natural fit to generate test-sequences that have complex logical inter-dependent structure. To counter the problems posed by a large (or…

Noticing the similarity between the monotone weak distributive laws combining two layers of nondeterminism in sets and in compact Hausdorff spaces, we study whether the latter law can be obtained automatically as a weak lifting of the…

We study cyclic proof systems for $\mu\mathsf{PA}$, an extension of Peano arithmetic by positive inductive definitions that is arithmetically equivalent to the (impredicative) subsystem of second-order arithmetic $\Pi^1_2$-$\mathsf{CA}_0$…

Fuzzy logic programming is an established approach for reasoning under uncertainty. Several semantics from classical, two-valued logic programming have been generalized to the case of fuzzy logic programs. In this paper, we show that two of…

Answer Set Programming (ASP) provides a powerful declarative paradigm for knowledge representation and reasoning. Recently, counting answer sets has emerged as an important computational problem with applications in probabilistic reasoning,…

Lambek and Scott constructed a correspondence between simply-typed lambda calculi and Cartesian closed categories. Scott's Representation Theorem is a cousin to this result for untyped lambda calculi. It states that every untyped lambda…
