An Algebraic Decision Procedure for Two-Variable Logic with a Between Relation

Authors: Andreas Krebs, Kamal Lodaya, Paritosh K. Pandya, and Howard Straubing

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 119, 27th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2018)


Abstract
In earlier work (LICS 2016), the authors introduced two-variable first-order logic supplemented by a binary relation that allows one to say that a letter appears between two positions. We found an effective algebraic criterion that is a necessary condition for definability in this logic, and conjectured that the criterion is also sufficient, although we proved this only in the case of two-letter alphabets. Here we prove the general conjecture. The proof is quite different from the arguments in the earlier work, and required the development of novel techniques concerning factorizations of words. We extend the results to binary relations specifying that a factor appears between two positions.

Abstract
This proceedings volume has the papers presented at the 30th annual conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2010), held at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences (IMSc), Chennai, during 15–18 December 2010. The conference attracted 128 submissions from 35 countries in 6 continents, most of them of very high quality. We thank the authors who submitted for making this such a competitive conference. The PC succeeded in obtaining the help of 216 external reviewers, in all producing 400 referee reports which were of immeasurable help in deciding the 38 contributed papers which have made it to this publication.

Modelchecking counting properties of 1-safe nets with buffers in paraPSPACE

Authors: M. Praveen and Kamal Lodaya

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 4, IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (2009)


Abstract
We consider concurrent systems that can be modelled as $1$-safe Petri nets communicating through a fixed set of buffers (modelled as unbounded places). We identify a parameter $\ben$, which we call ``benefit depth'', formed from the communication graph between the buffers. We show that for our system model, the coverability and boundedness problems can be solved in polynomial space assuming $\ben$ to be a fixed parameter, that is, the space requirement is $f(\ben)p(n)$, where $f$ is an exponential function and $p$ is a polynomial in the size of the input. We then obtain similar complexity bounds for modelchecking a logic based on such counting properties. This means that systems that have sparse communication patterns can be analyzed more efficiently than using previously known algorithms for general Petri nets.
