The concurrent refinement algebra has been developed to support rely/guarantee reasoning about concurrent programs. The algebra supports atomic commands and defines parallel composition as a synchronous operation, as in Milner's SCCS. In…

For any partial combinatory algebra (PCA for short) A, the class of A-representable partial functions from N to A quotiented by the filter of cofinite sets of N, is a PCA such that the representable partial functions are exactly the…

A Kleene semiring is an algebraic structure satisfying the axioms of Kleene algebra, minus the annihilation axioms (x.0 = 0 = 0.x). We show that Kleene semirings (like Kleene algebras) admit the efficient elimination of various kinds of…

We extend the definition and study the algebraic properties of the polylogarithm Li(T), where T is rational series over the alphabet X = {x 0, x 1} belonging to suitable subalgebras of rational series.

The present paper constructs three new systems of clarithmetic (arithmetic based on computability logic --- see http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~giorgi/cl.html): CLA8, CLA9 and CLA10. System CLA8 is shown to be sound and extensionally complete…

The class of all $\ast$-continuous Kleene algebras, whose description includes an infinitary condition on the iteration operator, plays an important role in computer science. The complexity of reasoning in such algebras - ranging from the…

We propose a generalization of first-order logic originating in a neglected work by C.C. Chang: a natural and generic correspondence language for any types of structures which can be recast as Set-coalgebras. We discuss axiomatization and…

We develop K$\omega$, an open-source linear algebra library for the shifted Krylov subspace methods. The methods solve a set of shifted linear equations $(z_k I-H)x^{(k)}=b\, (k=0,1,2,...)$ for a given matrix $H$ and a vector $b$,…

We show that lambda calculus is a computation model which can step by step simulate any sequential deterministic algorithm for any computable function over integers or words or any datatype. More formally, given an algorithm above a family…

$\omega$-regular languages are a natural extension of the regular languages to the setting of infinite words. Likewise, they are recognised by a host of automata models, one of the most important being Alternating Parity Automata (APAs), a…

We propose an automaton model which is a combination of symbolic and register automata, i.e., we enrich symbolic automata with memory. We call such automata Symbolic Register Automata (SRA). SRA extend the expressive power of symbolic…

The Square Kilometre Array (SKA), when it becomes functional, is expected to enrich neutron star (NS) catalogues by at least an order of magnitude over their current state. This includes the discovery of new NS objects leading to better…

$\omega$-clones are multi-sorted structures that naturally emerge as algebras for infinite trees, just as $\omega$-semigroups are convenient algebras for infinite words. In the algebraic theory of languages, one hopes that a language is…

We prove that the equational theory of Kleene algebra with commutativity conditions on primitives (or atomic terms) is undecidable, thereby settling a longstanding open question in the theory of Kleene algebra. While this question has also…

Grabmayer and Fokkink recently presented a finite and complete axiomatization for 1-free process terms over the binary Kleene star under bismilarity equivalence (proceedings of LICS 2020, preprint available). A different and considerably…

We investigate mca-programs, that is, logic programs with clauses built of monotone cardinality atoms of the form kX, where k is a non-negative integer and X is a finite set of propositional atoms. We develop a theory of mca-programs. We…

With the purpose of unifying a number of approaches to energy problems found in the literature, we introduce generalized energy automata. These are finite automata whose edges are labeled with energy functions that define how energy levels…

The theory of higher-dimensional automata (HDAs) has seen rapid progress in recent years, and first applications, notably to Petri net analysis, are starting to show. It has, however, emerged that HDAs themselves often are too strict a…

We discuss the complexity of completions of partial combinatory algebras, in particular of Kleene's first model. Various completions of this model exist in the literature, but all of them have high complexity. We show that although there do…

Alternating automata have been widely used to model and verify systems that handle data from finite domains, such as communication protocols or hardware. The main advantage of the alternating model of computation is that complementation is…
