A Unifying Conservation Theorem

Authors: Giulio Fellin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 363, 34th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2026)

Abstract
The relationship between classical and constructive logics has long been illuminated by a series of conservation results, beginning with Kolmogorov’s negative translation and Glivenko’s double negation theorem, and later extended by Kuroda and Segerberg to first-order and minimal logics respectively. These results reveal how certain classical principles can be interpreted or recovered within weaker constructive frameworks, either via translations or through minimal extensions that satisfy specific logical properties. In this paper, we propose a unifying generalisation of these conservation theorems, that consolidates and expands the abstract methods introduced in earlier studies, offering a unified perspective on the interplay between classical provability and constructive reasoning.

Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange from Commutativity to Group Laws

Authors: Dung Hoang Duong, Youming Qiao, and Chuanqi Zhang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
In Diffie-Hellman key exchange, the commutativity of power operations is instrumental in the agreement of keys. Viewing commutativity as a law in abelian groups, we propose Diffie-Hellman key exchange in the group action framework (Brassard-Yung, Crypto'90; Ji-Qiao-Song-Yun, TCC'19), for actions of non-abelian groups with laws. The security of this protocol is shown, following Fischlin, Günther, Schmidt, and Warinschi (IEEE S&P'16), based on a pseudorandom group action assumption. A concrete instantiation is proposed based on the monomial code equivalence problem.

Evaluating Fairness of Sequential Resource Allocation Policies: A Computational Study

Authors: Christopher Hojny, Frits C.R. Spieksma, and Sten Wessel

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 137, 25th Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS 2025)

Abstract
In the sequential resource allocation problem there is a single divisible resource that is divided over a number of clients. Allocations are made in a predetermined order and only upon arrival at a client their demand for the resource is revealed; only the probability distribution of the demand of every client is known to the supplier. We consider this problem from a fairness perspective, where the aim is to balance allocations between individual clients. Several allocation policies have been proposed in the literature. In this work, we introduce a new, non-adaptive policy based on linear programming that can also incorporate group fairness. In addition, we provide an extensive computational study to compare allocation policies on several fairness measures. Using an optimized implementation of existing methods, we are able to evaluate significantly larger problem instances than those previously considered in the literature.

Mixed-Initiative Dynamic Autonomy Through Variable Levels of Immersion and Control (MIDA-VIC): A New Paradigm for Collaborative Robotic Teleoperation in Space Exploration

Authors: Hans-Christian Jetter, Leon Raule, Jens Gerken, and Sören Pirk

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 130, Advancing Human-Computer Interaction for Space Exploration (SpaceCHI 2025)

Abstract
In this position paper, we propose the new control paradigm and conceptual framework MIDA-VIC for collaborative robotic teleoperation in space exploration and beyond. Such teleoperation is a complex and demanding team effort with distributed responsibilities that require both efficient human-robot and human-human collaboration. To address these challenges, we propose a new paradigm of mixed-initiative dynamic autonomy for robotic teleoperation. It exploits recent advances in human-computer interaction (HCI), human-robot interaction (HRI), augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), and artificial intelligence (AI) research. By integrating methods from multiple fields, our paradigm allows human operators to choose their preferred level of immersion, from traditional 2D graphical user interfaces (GUIs) to fully immersive AR/VR environments. It also supports a dynamic adjustment of the level of control, ranging from direct motor commands (e.g., using a joystick) to high-level task delegation using AI (e.g., instructing the robot via natural language to select a path or explore autonomously). In addition, we propose a mixed-initiative paradigm in which a robot can also take the initiative, request human assistance, and propose the specific level of immersion and control to the human operator that it currently considers useful for effective and efficient collaboration.

(Can't) Fly Me to the Moon or Mars? Context of Use Analysis Approaches for Space Exploration

Authors: Tilo Mentler

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 130, Advancing Human-Computer Interaction for Space Exploration (SpaceCHI 2025)

Abstract
Contexts of use are a central concept of research and development in human-computer interaction (HCI). Their in-depth understanding is a key for usable and acceptable computer-aided solutions and a particular challenge in connection with space exploration. It is necessary to examine which of the established approaches can be implemented here and where methodological adjustments are necessary. This article provides a systematic consideration of three perspectives to understand space contexts of use: theory and literature, imparted experiential knowledge, and personal experience. Potentials and risks are evaluated. The findings of HCI research in safety-critical contexts and under COVID-19 conditions that can be transferred to space HCI are taken up.

Reconfiguration of Unit Squares and Disks: PSPACE-Hardness in Simple Settings

Authors: Mikkel Abrahamsen, Kevin Buchin, Maike Buchin, Linda Kleist, Maarten Löffler, Lena Schlipf, André Schulz, and Jack Stade

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)

Abstract
We study well-known reconfiguration problems. Given a start and a target configuration of geometric objects in a polygon, we wonder whether we can move the objects from the start configuration to the target configuration while avoiding collisions between the objects and staying within the polygon. Problems of this type have been considered since the early 80s by roboticists and computational geometers. In this paper, we study some of the simplest possible variants where the objects are labeled or unlabeled unit squares or unit disks. In unlabeled reconfiguration, the objects are identical, so that any object is allowed to end at any of the targets positions. In the labeled variant, each object has a designated target position. The results for the labeled variants are direct consequences from our insights on the unlabeled versions. We show that it is PSPACE-hard to decide whether there exists a reconfiguration of (unlabeled/labeled) unit squares even in a simple polygon. Previously, it was only known to be PSPACE-hard in a polygon with holes for both the unlabeled and labeled version [Solovey and Halperin, Int. J. Robotics Res. 2016]. Our proof is based on a result of independent interest, namely that reconfiguration between two satisfying assignments of a formula of Monotone-Planar-3-Sat is also PSPACE-complete. The reduction from reconfiguration of Monotone-Planar-3-Sat to reconfiguration of unit squares extends techniques recently developed to show NP-hardness of packing unit squares in a simple polygon [Abrahamsen and Stade, FOCS 2024]. We also show PSPACE-hardness of reconfiguration of (unlabeled/labeled) unit disks in a polygon with holes. Previously, it was known that unlabeled reconfiguration of disks of two different sizes was PSPACE-hard [Brocken, van der Heijden, Kostitsyna, Lo-Wong and Surtel, FUN 2021].

Optimal Motion Planning for Two Square Robots in a Rectilinear Environment

Authors: Pankaj K. Agarwal, Mark de Berg, Benjamin Holmgren, Alex Steiger, and Martijn Struijs

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)

Abstract
Let W ⊂ ℝ² be a rectilinear polygonal environment (that is, a rectilinear polygon potentially with holes) with a total of n vertices, and let A,B be two robots, each modeled as an axis-aligned unit square, that can move rectilinearly inside W. The goal is to compute an optimal collision-free motion plan π for A and B between a given pair of source and target configurations. We study two variants of this problem and obtain the following results. - Min-Sum: Here the goal is to compute a motion plan that minimizes the sum of the lengths of the paths of the robots. We present an O(n⁴log n)-time algorithm for computing an optimal solution to the min-sum problem. This is the first polynomial-time algorithm to compute an optimal, collision-free motion of two robots amid obstacles in a planar polygonal environment. - Min-Makespan: Here the robots can move with at most unit speed, and the goal is to compute a motion plan that minimizes the maximum time taken by a robot to reach its target location. We prove that the min-makespan variant is NP-hard.

The More the Merrier! On Total Coding and Lattice Problems and the Complexity of Finding Multicollisions

Authors: Huck Bennett, Surendra Ghentiyala, and Noah Stephens-Davidowitz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 325, 16th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2025)

Abstract
We show a number of connections between two types of search problems: (1) the problem of finding an L-wise multicollision in the output of a function; and (2) the problem of finding two codewords in a code (or two vectors in a lattice) that are within distance d of each other. Specifically, we study these problems in the total regime, in which L and d are chosen so that such a solution is guaranteed to exist, though it might be hard to find. In more detail, we study the total search problem in which the input is a function 𝒞 : [A] → [B] (represented as a circuit) and the goal is to find L ≤ ⌈A/B⌉ distinct elements x_1,…, x_L ∈ A such that 𝒞(x_1) = ⋯ = 𝒞(x_L). The associated complexity classes Polynomial Multi-Pigeonhole Principle ((A,B)-PMPP^L) consist of all problems that reduce to this problem. We show close connections between (A,B)-PMPP^L and many celebrated upper bounds on the minimum distance of a code or lattice (and on the list-decoding radius). In particular, we show that the associated computational problems (i.e., the problem of finding two distinct codewords or lattice points that are close to each other) are in (A,B)-PMPP^L, with a more-or-less smooth tradeoff between the distance d and the parameters A, B, and L. These connections are particularly rich in the case of codes, in which case we show that multiple incomparable bounds on the minimum distance lie in seemingly incomparable complexity classes. Surprisingly, we also show that the computational problems associated with some bounds on the minimum distance of codes are actually hard for these classes (for codes represented by arbitrary circuits). In fact, we show that finding two vectors within a certain distance d is actually hard for the important (and well-studied) class PWPP = (B²,B)-PMPP² in essentially all parameter regimes for which an efficient algorithm is not known, so that our hardness results are essentially tight. In fact, for some d (depending on the block length, message length, and alphabet size), we obtain both hardness and containment. We therefore completely settle the complexity of this problem for such parameters and add coding problems to the short list of problems known to be complete for PWPP. We also study (A,B)-PMPP^L as an interesting family of complexity classes in its own right, and we uncover a rich structure. Specifically, we use recent techniques from the cryptographic literature on multicollision-resistant hash functions to (1) show inclusions of the form (A,B)-PMPP^L ⊆ (A',B')-PMPP^L' for certain non-trivial parameters; (2) black-box separations between such classes in different parameter regimes; and (3) a non-black-box proof that (A,B)-PMPP^L ∈ FP if (A',B')-PMPP^L' ∈ FP for yet another parameter regime. We also show that (A,B)-PMPP^L lies in the recently introduced complexity class Polynomial Long Choice for some parameters.

Logics for Conceptual Data Modelling: A Review

Authors: Pablo R. Fillottrani and C. Maria Keet

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 1 (2024): Special Issue on Trends in Graph Data and Knowledge - Part 2. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 1

Abstract
Information modelling for databases and object-oriented information systems avails of conceptual data modelling languages such as EER and UML Class Diagrams. Many attempts exist to add logical rigour to them, for various reasons and with disparate strengths. In this paper we aim to provide a structured overview of the many efforts. We focus on aims, approaches to the formalisation, including key dimensions of choice points, popular logics used, and the main relevant reasoning services. We close with current challenges and research directions.

Knowledge Graph Embeddings: Open Challenges and Opportunities

Abstract
While Knowledge Graphs (KGs) have long been used as valuable sources of structured knowledge, in recent years, KG embeddings have become a popular way of deriving numeric vector representations from them, for instance, to support knowledge graph completion and similarity search. This study surveys advances as well as open challenges and opportunities in this area. For instance, the most prominent embedding models focus primarily on structural information. However, there has been notable progress in incorporating further aspects, such as semantics, multi-modal, temporal, and multilingual features. Most embedding techniques are assessed using human-curated benchmark datasets for the task of link prediction, neglecting other important real-world KG applications. Many approaches assume a static knowledge graph and are unable to account for dynamic changes. Additionally, KG embeddings may encode data biases and lack interpretability. Overall, this study provides an overview of promising research avenues to learn improved KG embeddings that can address a more diverse range of use cases.

Towards a Media Interpretation Framework for the Semantic Web

Authors: S. Espinosa Peraldi, A. Kaya, S. Melzer, Ralf Möller, and M. Wessel

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8091, Logic and Probability for Scene Interpretation (2008)

Abstract
We present a framework for media interpretation that leverages low-level information extraction to a higher level of abstraction in order to support semantics-based information retrieval for the Semantic Web. The overall goal of the framework is to provide high-level content descriptions of documents for maximizing precision and recall of semantics-based information retrieval.
