The category of all idempotent generated semigroups with a prescribed structure $\mathcal{E}$ of their idempotents $E$ (called the biordered set) has an initial object called the free idempotent generated semigroup over $\mathcal{E}$,…

Motivated by Ziegler's computability-theoretic characterisation of finite absolute presentability between groups, we prove an analogous theorem in symbolic dynamics. We introduce the notion of one subshift being finitely determined over…

We investigate two notions about descriptions of groups using first-order language: quasi-finite axiomatizability, concerning infinite groups, and polylogarithmic compressibility, concerning classes of finite groups.

Probabilistic team semantics is a framework for logical analysis of probabilistic dependencies. Our focus is on the axiomatizability, complexity, and expressivity of probabilistic inclusion logic and its extensions. We identify a natural…

We affirm a conjecture of Sacks [1972] by showing that every countable distributive lattice is isomorphic to an initial segment of the hyperdegrees, $\mathcal{D}_{h}$. In fact, we prove that every sublattice of any hyperarithmetic lattice…

This is a sequel to math.AG/0003009. Here we study identities for the Fourier transform of "elementary functions" over finite field containing "exponents" of monomial rational functions. It turns out that these identities are governed by…

It is shown that finite-index extensions and finite-index subgroups of $\omega$-stable groups can be model-theoretically wild. More precisely, there exists an $\omega$-stable group $G$ such that any given countable first-order structure in…

We give a construction of a large first-order definable family of subrings of finitely generated fields $K$ of any characteristic. We deduce that for any such $K$ there exists a first-order sentence $\varphi_K$ characterising $K$ in the…

For each clone C on a set A there is an associated equivalence relation analogous to Green's R-relation, which relates two operations on A iff each one is a substitution instance of the other using operations from C. We study the clones for…

We show that the Identity Problem is decidable in polynomial time for finitely generated sub-semigroups of the group $\mathsf{UT}(4, \mathbb{Z})$ of $4 \times 4$ unitriangular integer matrices. As a byproduct of our proof, we also show the…

We develop a theory of adjunctions in semigroup categories, i.e. monoidal categories without a unit object. We show that a rigid semigroup category is promonoidal, and thus one can naturally adjoin a unit object to it. This extends the…

We establish the decidability of the $\Sigma_2$ theory of $\mathscr{D}_h(\leq_h \mathcal{O})$, the hyperarithmetic degrees below Kleene's $\mathcal{O}$, in the language of uppersemilattices with least and greatest element. This requires a…

The first-order theory of finite and infinite trees has been studied since the eighties, especially by the logic programming community. Following Djelloul, Dao and Fr\"uhwirth, we consider an extension of this theory with an additional…

Over the past two decades several fragments of first-order logic have been identified and shown to have good computational and algorithmic properties, to a great extent as a result of appropriately describing the image of the standard…

We derive an identity connecting any two second-order linear recurrence sequences having the same recurrence relation but whose initial terms may be different. Binomial and ordinary summation identities arising from the identity are…

We study algebras satisfying a two-term multilinear identity, namely one of the form $x_1 \cdots x_n= q x_{\sigma(1)} \cdots x_{\sigma(n)}$, where $q$ is a parameter from the base field. We show that such algebras with $q=1$ and $\sigma$…

We classify the quasi-finite irreducible highest weight modules over the infinite rank Lie superalgebras $\hgltwo$, $\hC$ and $\hD$, and determine the necessary and sufficient conditions for quasi-finite irreducible highest weight modules…

Matching logic is a general formal framework for reasoning about a wide range of theories, with particular emphasis on programming language semantics. Notably, the intermediate language of the K semantics framework is an extension of…

We study two modifications of the Post Correspondence Problem (PCP), namely 1) the bi-infinite version, where it is asked whether there exists a bi-infinite word such that two given morphisms agree on it, and 2) the conjugate version, where…

We study finite first-order satisfiability (FSAT) in the constructive setting of dependent type theory. Employing synthetic accounts of enumerability and decidability, we give a full classification of FSAT depending on the first-order…
