Semënov Arithmetic, Affine {VASS}, and String Constraints

Authors: Andrei Draghici, Christoph Haase, and Florin Manea

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)


Abstract
We study extensions of Semënov arithmetic, the first-order theory of the structure ⟨ℕ,+,2^x⟩. It is well-known that this theory becomes undecidable when extended with regular predicates over tuples of number strings, such as the Büchi V₂-predicate. We therefore restrict ourselves to the existential theory of Semënov arithmetic and show that this theory is decidable in EXPSPACE when extended with arbitrary regular predicates over tuples of number strings. Our approach relies on a reduction to the language emptiness problem for a restricted class of affine vector addition systems with states, which we show decidable in EXPSPACE. As an application of our result, we settle an open problem from the literature and show decidability of a class of string constraints involving length constraints.

k-Universality of Regular Languages

Authors: Duncan Adamson, Pamela Fleischmann, Annika Huch, Tore Koß, Florin Manea, and Dirk Nowotka

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 283, 34th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2023)


Abstract
A subsequence of a word w is a word u such that u = w[i₁] w[i₂] … w[i_k], for some set of indices 1 ≤ i₁ < i₂ < … < i_k ≤ |w|. A word w is k-subsequence universal over an alphabet Σ if every word in Σ^k appears in w as a subsequence. In this paper, we study the intersection between the set of k-subsequence universal words over some alphabet Σ and regular languages over Σ. We call a regular language L k-∃-subsequence universal if there exists a k-subsequence universal word in L, and k-∀-subsequence universal if every word of L is k-subsequence universal. We give algorithms solving the problems of deciding if a given regular language, represented by a finite automaton recognising it, is k-∃-subsequence universal and, respectively, if it is k-∀-subsequence universal, for a given k. The algorithms are FPT w.r.t. the size of the input alphabet, and their run-time does not depend on k; they run in polynomial time in the number n of states of the input automaton when the size of the input alphabet is O(log n). Moreover, we show that the problem of deciding if a given regular language is k-∃-subsequence universal is NP-complete, when the language is over a large alphabet. Further, we provide algorithms for counting the number of k-subsequence universal words (paths) accepted by a given deterministic (respectively, nondeterministic) finite automaton, and ranking an input word (path) within the set of k-subsequence universal words accepted by a given finite automaton.

Subsequences with Gap Constraints: Complexity Bounds for Matching and Analysis Problems

Authors: Joel D. Day, Maria Kosche, Florin Manea, and Markus L. Schmid

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 248, 33rd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2022)


Abstract
We consider subsequences with gap constraints, i. e., length-k subsequences p that can be embedded into a string w such that the induced gaps (i. e., the factors of w between the positions to which p is mapped to) satisfy given gap constraints gc = (C_1, C_2, …, C_{k-1}); we call p a gc-subsequence of w. In the case where the gap constraints gc are defined by lower and upper length bounds C_i = (L^-_i, L^+_i) ∈ ℕ² and/or regular languages C_i ∈ REG, we prove tight (conditional on the orthogonal vectors (OV) hypothesis) complexity bounds for checking whether a given p is a gc-subsequence of a string w. We also consider the whole set of all gc-subsequences of a string, and investigate the complexity of the universality, equivalence and containment problems for these sets of gc-subsequences.

Between Deterministic and Nondeterministic Quantitative Automata (Invited Talk)

Authors: Udi Boker

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
There is a challenging trade-off between deterministic and nondeterministic automata, where the former suit various applications better, however at the cost of being exponentially larger or even less expressive. This gave birth to many notions in between determinism and nondeterminism, aiming at enjoying, sometimes, the best of both worlds. Some of the notions are yes/no ones, for example initial nondeterminism (restricting nondeterminism to allowing several initial states), and some provide a measure of nondeterminism, for example the ambiguity level. We analyze the possible generalization of such notions from Boolean to quantitative automata, and suggest that it depends on the following key characteristics of the considered notion 𝖭 - whether it is syntactic or semantic, and if semantic, whether it is word-based or language-based. A syntactic notion, such as initial nondeterminism, applies as is to a quantitative automaton A, namely 𝖭(A). A word-based semantic notion, such as unambiguity, applies as is to a Boolean automaton t-A that is derived from A by accompanying it with some threshold value t ∈ ℝ, namely 𝖭(t-A). A language-based notion, such as history determinism, also applies as is to t-A, while in addition, it naturally generalizes into two different notions with respect to A itself, by either: i) taking the supremum of 𝖭(t-A) over all thresholds t, denoted by Threshold-𝖭(A); or ii) generalizing the basis of the notion from a language to a function, denoted simply by 𝖭(A). While in general 𝖭(A) ⇒ Threshold-𝖭(A) ⇒ 𝖭(t-A), we have for some notions 𝖭(A) ≡ Threshold-𝖭(A), and for some not. (For measure notions, ⇒ stands for ≥ with respect to the nondeterminism level.) We classify numerous notions known in the Boolean setting according to their characterization above, generalize them to the quantitative setting and look into relations between them. The generalized notions open new research directions with respect to quantitative automata, and provide insights on the original notions with respect to Boolean automata.

How to Develop an Intuition for Risk... and Other Invisible Phenomena (Invited Talk)

Authors: Natasha Fernandes, Annabelle McIver, and Carroll Morgan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
The study of quantitative risk in security systems is often based around complex and subtle mathematical ideas involving probabilities. The notations for these ideas can pose a communication barrier between collaborating researchers even when those researchers are working within a similar framework. This paper describes the use of geometrical representation and reasoning as a way to share ideas using the minimum of notation so as to build intuition about what kinds of properties might or might not be true. We describe a faithful geometrical setting for the channel model of quantitative information flow (QIF) and demonstrate how it can facilitate "proofs without words" for problems in the QIF setting.

Simulation by Rounds of Letter-To-Letter Transducers

Authors: Antonio Abu Nassar and Shaull Almagor

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
Letter-to-letter transducers are a standard formalism for modeling reactive systems. Often, two transducers that model similar systems differ locally from one another, by behaving similarly, up to permutations of the input and output letters within "rounds". In this work, we introduce and study notions of simulation by rounds and equivalence by rounds of transducers. In our setting, words are partitioned to consecutive subwords of a fixed length k, called rounds. Then, a transducer 𝒯₁ is k-round simulated by transducer 𝒯₂ if, intuitively, for every input word x, we can permute the letters within each round in x, such that the output of 𝒯₂ on the permuted word is itself a permutation of the output of 𝒯₁ on x. Finally, two transducers are k-round equivalent if they simulate each other. We solve two main decision problems, namely whether 𝒯₂ k-round simulates 𝒯₁ (1) when k is given as input, and (2) for an existentially quantified k. We demonstrate the usefulness of the definitions by applying them to process symmetry: a setting in which a permutation in the identities of processes in a multi-process system naturally gives rise to two transducers, whose k-round equivalence corresponds to stability against such permutations.

Useful Open Call-By-Need

Authors: Beniamino Accattoli and Maico Leberle

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
This paper studies useful sharing, which is a sophisticated optimization for λ-calculi, in the context of call-by-need evaluation in presence of open terms. Useful sharing turns out to be harder in call-by-need than in call-by-name or call-by-value, because call-by-need evaluates inside environments, making it harder to specify when a substitution step is useful. We isolate the key involved concepts and prove the correctness and the completeness of useful sharing in this setting.

Gardening with the Pythia A Model of Continuity in a Dependent Setting

Authors: Martin Baillon, Assia Mahboubi, and Pierre-Marie Pédrot

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
We generalize to a rich dependent type theory a proof originally developed by Escardó that all System 𝚃 functionals are continuous. It relies on the definition of a syntactic model of Baclofen Type Theory, a type theory where dependent elimination must be strict, into the Calculus of Inductive Constructions. The model is given by three translations: the axiom translation, that adds an oracle to the context; the branching translation, based on the dialogue monad, turning every type into a tree; and finally, a layer of algebraic binary parametricity, binding together the two translations. In the resulting type theory, every function f : (ℕ → ℕ) → ℕ is externally continuous.

Weighted Automata and Expressions over Pre-Rational Monoids

Authors: Nicolas Baudru, Louis-Marie Dando, Nathan Lhote, Benjamin Monmege, Pierre-Alain Reynier, and Jean-Marc Talbot

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
The Kleene theorem establishes a fundamental link between automata and expressions over the free monoid. Numerous generalisations of this result exist in the literature; on one hand, lifting this result to a weighted setting has been widely studied. On the other hand, beyond the free monoid, different monoids can be considered: for instance, two-way automata, and even tree-walking automata, can be described by expressions using the free inverse monoid. In the present work, we aim at combining both research directions and consider weighted extensions of automata and expressions over a class of monoids that we call pre-rational, generalising both the free inverse monoid and graded monoids. The presence of idempotent elements in these pre-rational monoids leads in the weighted setting to consider infinite sums. To handle such sums, we will have to restrict ourselves to rationally additive semirings. Our main result is thus a generalisation of the Kleene theorem for pre-rational monoids and rationally additive semirings. As a corollary, we obtain a class of expressions equivalent to weighted two-way automata, as well as one for tree-walking automata.

Optimal Strategies in Concurrent Reachability Games

Authors: Benjamin Bordais, Patricia Bouyer, and Stéphane Le Roux

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
We study two-player reachability games on finite graphs. At each state the interaction between the players is concurrent and there is a stochastic Nature. Players also play stochastically. The literature tells us that 1) Player 𝖡, who wants to avoid the target state, has a positional strategy that maximizes the probability to win (uniformly from every state) and 2) from every state, for every ε > 0, Player 𝖠 has a strategy that maximizes up to ε the probability to win. Our work is two-fold. First, we present a double-fixed-point procedure that says from which state Player 𝖠 has a strategy that maximizes (exactly) the probability to win. This is computable if Nature’s probability distributions are rational. We call these states maximizable. Moreover, we show that for every ε > 0, Player 𝖠 has a positional strategy that maximizes the probability to win, exactly from maximizable states and up to ε from sub-maximizable states. Second, we consider three-state games with one main state, one target, and one bin. We characterize the local interactions at the main state that guarantee the existence of an optimal Player 𝖠 strategy. In this case there is a positional one. It turns out that in many-state games, these local interactions also guarantee the existence of a uniform optimal Player 𝖠 strategy. In a way, these games are well-behaved by design of their elementary bricks, the local interactions. It is decidable whether a local interaction has this desirable property.

Finite-Memory Strategies in Two-Player Infinite Games

Authors: Patricia Bouyer, Stéphane Le Roux, and Nathan Thomasset

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
We study infinite two-player win/lose games (A,B,W) where A,B are finite and W ⊆ (A×B)^ω. At each round Player 1 and Player 2 concurrently choose one action in A and B, respectively. Player 1 wins iff the generated sequence is in W. Each history h ∈ (A×B)^* induces a game (A,B,W_h) with W_h : = {ρ ∈ (A×B)^ω ∣ h ρ ∈ W}. We show the following: if W is in Δ⁰₂ (for the usual topology), if the inclusion relation induces a well partial order on the W_h’s, and if Player 1 has a winning strategy, then she has a finite-memory winning strategy. Our proof relies on inductive descriptions of set complexity, such as the Hausdorff difference hierarchy of the open sets. Examples in Σ⁰₂ and Π⁰₂ show some tightness of our result. Our result can be translated to games on finite graphs: e.g. finite-memory determinacy of multi-energy games is a direct corollary, whereas it does not follow from recent general results on finite memory strategies.

Constructing the Space of Valuations of a Quasi-Polish Space as a Space of Ideals

Authors: Matthew de Brecht

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
We construct the space of valuations on a quasi-Polish space in terms of the characterization of quasi-Polish spaces as spaces of ideals of a countable transitive relation. Our construction is closely related to domain theoretical work on the probabilistic powerdomain, and helps illustrate the connections between domain theory and quasi-Polish spaces. Our approach is consistent with previous work on computable measures, and can be formalized within weak formal systems, such as subsystems of second order arithmetic.
