Small Substructures and Decidability Issues for First-Order Logic with Two Variables
20th Annual IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS' 05)
We study first-order logic with two variables FO 2 and establish a small substructure property. ...
FO 2 here stands for the fragment of first-order logic with equality with only two variable symbols x and y, in finite relational vocabularies (without constants or function symbols). ...
We would like to thank the anonymous referees for their comments and criticism of an earlier version, which helped to improve the presentation. ...

Relational analysis of algebraic datatypes
2005
Proceedings of the 10th European software engineering conference held jointly with 13th ACM SIGSOFT international symposium on Foundations of software engineering - ESEC/FSE-13
The key idea of our technique is to identify a natural syntactic class of formulas in relational logic for which reasoning about infinite structures can be reduced to reasoning about finite structures. ...
Such formulas arise when using the language of sets and relations to reason about structured values such as algebraic datatypes. ...
First-order logic with transitive closure. ...

The Boundary Between Decidability and Undecidability for Transitive-Closure Logics
[chapter]
2004
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In this paper, we explore the boundary between decidability and undecidability for transitive-closure logics. ...
We also compare the complexity and expressibility of ∃∀(DTC + [E]) with related decidable languages including MSO(trees) and guarded fixed point logics. ...
Decidability of ∃∀(DTC + [E]) We start with the first-order logic ∃∀, consisting of first-order formulas in prenex form with all existential quantifiers preceding all universal quantifiers. ...

This paper is a survey and systematic presentation of decidability and complexity issues for modal and non-modal two-variable logics. ...
The decidability and complexity issues for modal and non-modal two-variables logics have been studied quite intensively in the last years. ...

Decidable Expansions of Labelled Linear Orderings
2011
Logical Methods in Computer Science
If the ordering contains an interval of order type \omega or -\omega, and the monadic second-order theory of the combined structure is decidable, there exists a non-trivial expansion by a further monadic ...
Consider a linear ordering equipped with a finite sequence of monadic predicates. ...

One-Dimensional Guarded Fragments

International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science
two free variables need not be guarded, and which thus may be seen as a unification of GF and the two-variable fragment, FO 2 . ...
We call a first-order formula one-dimensional if every maximal block of existential (or universal) quantifiers in it leaves at most one variable free. ...

An Algebraic Glimpse at Bunched Implications and Separation Logic
[article]
2018
arXiv
pre-print
We overview the logic of Bunched Implications (BI) and Separation Logic (SL) from a perspective inspired by Hiroakira Ono's algebraic approach to substructural logics. ...
We propose generalized BI algebras (GBI-algebras) as a common framework for algebras arising via "declarative resource reading", intuitionistic generalizations of relation algebras and arrow logics and ...
Moreover, the second author wishes to thank: the family of the first author, in particular Julie Tapp, for hosting him for two weeks in April 2015, when the bulk of this paper was written; his project ...

Decidable Expansions of Labelled Linear Orderings
[chapter]
2010
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We show that if A contains an interval of order type ω or −ω, and the monadic second-order theory of M is decidable, then there exists a non-trivial expansion M of M by a monadic predicate such that the ...
monadic second-order theory of M is still decidable. ...

Margin-based first-order rule learning
2007
Machine Learning
The implementation of the system includes plugins for logical queries, graphs and mathematical terms. ...
We present a new margin-based approach to first-order rule learning. ...
Due to its roots in first-order logic, most multi-relational rule learning algorithms are based on disjunctions or conjunctions of rules. ...

Unary negation fragment with equivalence relations has the finite model property
[article]
2018
arXiv
pre-print
We consider an extension of the unary negation fragment of first-order logic in which arbitrarily many binary symbols may be required to be interpreted as equivalence relations. ...
We argue that the satisfiability (= finite satisfiability) problem for this logic is TwoExpTime-complete. ...

Decidability of inferring inductive invariants
2016
Proceedings of the 43rd Annual ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages - POPL 2016
A common practice is to model a system using logical formulas, and then use a decision procedure to verify that some logical formula is an inductive safety invariant for the system. ...
We illustrate our approach by showing the decidability of inferring invariants for programs manipulating linked-lists, and for distributed protocols. ...
Both TS and P will be encoded in first-order logic, and the encoding will be constructed such that the two correctness conditions hold: 1. ...
