The field of implicit complexity has recently produced several bounded-complexity programming languages. This kind of language allows to implement exactly the functions belonging to a certain complexity class. We here present a…

Linear temporal logic (LTL) is a specification language for finite sequences (called traces) widely used in program verification, motion planning in robotics, process mining, and many other areas. We consider the problem of learning LTL…

Due to the limitation on computational power of existing computers, the polynomial time does not works for identifying the tractable problems in big data computing. This paper adopts the sublinear time as the new tractable standard to…

Logically constrained term rewriting systems (LCTRSs) are a program analyzing formalism with native support for data types which are not (co)inductively defined. As a first-order formalism, LCTRSs have accommodated only analysis of…

We introduce a novel quantum programming language featuring higher-order programs and quantum controlflow which ensures that all qubit transformations are unitary. Our language boasts a type system guaranteeingboth unitarity and…

In this paper, we prove that (first-order) cons-free term rewriting with a call-by-value reduction strategy exactly characterises the class of PTIME-computable functions. We use this to give an alternative proof of the result by Carvalho…

Turing machines define polynomial time (PTime) on strings but cannot deal with structures like graphs directly, and there is no known, easily computable string encoding of isomorphism classes of structures. Is there a computation model…

Logically constrained rewrite systems (LCTRSs) are a versatile and efficient rewriting formalism that can be used to model programs from various programming paradigms, as well as simplification systems in compilers and SMT solvers. In this…

This paper presents an approach to Prolog-style term encoding of typed feature structures. The type feature structures to be encoded are constrained by appropriateness conditions as in Carpenter's ALE system. But unlike ALE, we impose a…

This paper introduces time window temporal logic (TWTL), a rich expressivity language for describing various time bounded specifications. In particular, the syntax and semantics of TWTL enable the compact representation of serial tasks,…

This paper is concerned with the automated complexity analysis of term rewrite systems (TRSs for short) and the ramification of these in implicit computational complexity theory (ICC for short). We introduce a novel path order with multiset…

We translate the usual class of partial/primitive recursive functions to a pointer recursion framework, accessing actual input values via a pointer reading unit-cost function. These pointer recursive functions classes are proven equivalent…

We introduce a probabilistic extension of Levy's Call-By-Push-Value. This extension consists simply in adding a " flipping coin " boolean closed atomic expression. This language can be understood as a major generalization of Scott's PCF…

Type systems as a way to control or analyze programs have been largely studied in the context of functional programming languages. Some of those work allow to extract from a typing derivation for a program a complexity bound on this…

Model checking linear-time properties expressed in first-order logic has non-elementary complexity, and thus various restricted logical languages are employed. In this paper we consider two such restricted specification logics, linear…

We present the PML 2 language, which provides a uniform environment for programming, and for proving properties of programs in an ML-like setting. The language is Curry-style and call-by-value, it provides a control operator (interpreted in…

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) with recurrence and self-attention have been shown to be Turing-complete (TC). However, existing work has shown that these ANNs require multiple turns or unbounded computation time, even with unbounded…

We study here a natural situation when constraint programming can be entirely reduced to rule-based programming. To this end we explain first how one can compute on constraint satisfaction problems using rules represented by simple…

An automated resource analysis technique is introduced, targeting a Call-By-Push-Value abstract machine, with memory prediction as a practical goal. The machine has a polymorphic and linear type system enhanced with a first-order logical…

Hofmann (1999) introduced the functional programming language LFPL to characterize the functions computable in polynomial time using an affine type system. LFPL enables a natural programming style, including nested recursion, and has…
