Logics for Dependence and Independence: Expressivity and Complexity (Dagstuhl Seminar 24111)

Authors: Juha Kontinen, Jonni Virtema, Heribert Vollmer, Fan Yang, and Nicolas Fröhlich

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3 (2024)


Abstract
This report documents the programme and outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar "Logics for Dependence and Independence: Expressivity and Complexity" (24111). This seminar served as a follow-up seminar to the highly successful seminars "Dependence Logic: Theory and Applications" (13071), "Logics for Dependence and Independence" (15261) and "Logics for Dependence and Independence" (19031). A key objective of the seminar was to bring together researchers working in dependence logic and in application areas (for this edition with a particular emphasis on the areas of hyperproperties and formal linguistics), so that they can communicate state-of-the-art advances and embark on a systematic interaction. The goal was especially to reach those researchers who have recently started working in this thriving area, as well as researchers working on several aspects of complexity studies of team-based logics as well as expressivity issues, in particular in the just mentioned application areas. In particular, bringing together researchers from areas of theoretical studies with the application areas aimed at enhancing the synergy between the different communities working on dependence logic.

Enumeration Classes Defined by Circuits

Authors: Nadia Creignou, Arnaud Durand, and Heribert Vollmer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 241, 47th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2022)


Abstract
We refine the complexity landscape for enumeration problems by introducing very low classes defined by using Boolean circuits as enumerators. We locate well-known enumeration problems, e.g., from graph theory, Gray code enumeration, and propositional satisfiability in our classes. In this way we obtain a framework to distinguish between the complexity of different problems known to be in DelayP, for which a formal way of comparison was not possible to this day.

Counting of Teams in First-Order Team Logics

Authors: Anselm Haak, Juha Kontinen, Fabian Müller, Heribert Vollmer, and Fan Yang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 138, 44th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2019)


Abstract
We study descriptive complexity of counting complexity classes in the range from #P to #*NP. A corollary of Fagin’s characterization of NP by existential second-order logic is that #P can be logically described as the class of functions counting satisfying assignments to free relation variables in first-order formulae. In this paper we extend this study to classes beyond #P and extensions of first-order logic with team semantics. These team-based logics are closely related to existential second-order logic and its fragments, hence our results also shed light on the complexity of counting for extensions of first-order logic in Tarski’s semantics. Our results show that the class #*NP can be logically characterized by independence logic and existential second-order logic, whereas dependence logic and inclusion logic give rise to subclasses of #*NP and #P, respectively. We also study the function class generated by inclusion logic and relate it to the complexity class TotP, which is a subclass of #P. Our main technical result shows that the problem of counting satisfying assignments for monotone Boolean Sigma_1-formulae is #*NP-complete with respect to Turing reductions as well as complete for the function class generated by dependence logic with respect to first-order reductions.

Descriptive Complexity of #AC^0 Functions

Authors: Arnaud Durand, Anselm Haak, Juha Kontinen, and Heribert Vollmer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 62, 25th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2016)


Abstract
We introduce a new framework for a descriptive complexity approach to arithmetic computations. We define a hierarchy of classes based on the idea of counting assignments to free function variables in first-order formulae. We completely determine the inclusion structure and show that #P and #AC^0 appear as classes of this hierarchy. In this way, we unconditionally place #AC^0 properly in a strict hierarchy of arithmetic classes within #P. We compare our classes with a hierarchy within #P defined in a model-theoretic way by Saluja et al. We argue that our approach is better suited to study arithmetic circuit classes such as #AC^0 which can be descriptively characterized as a class in our framework.

Circuits, Logic and Games (Dagstuhl Seminar 15401)

Authors: Mikolaj Bojanczyk, Meena Mahajan, Thomas Schwentick, and Heribert Vollmer

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 5, Issue 9 (2016)


Abstract
Over the years, there has been a lot of interplay between circuit complexity and logic. There are tight connections between small-depth circuit classes and fragments and extensions of firstorder logic, and ideas from games and finite model theory have provided powerful lower bound techniques for circuits. In recent years, there has been an impressive and sustained growth of interest and activity in the intersection of finite model theory and Boolean circuit complexity. The central aim of the seminar was to bring together researchers from these two areas to further strengthen the mutual fertilisation. The seminar focussed on the following specific topics: -The algebraic approach to circuit complexity with its applications to finite model theory -The logic-circuit connection, with a particular emphasis on circuit lower bounds that trigger results in finite model theory like separations between logics - New connections between uniformity conditions on circuit families and logical predicates - Structural complexity and circuit lower bounds inherently using methods from logic and algebra Proof systems with low circuit complexity - Dynamic complexity: understanding the dynamic expressive power of small depth circuit classes The seminar had 43 participants from 11 countries and was very successful with respect to the exchange of recent results, ideas and methodological approaches.

Abstract
This report documents the programme and outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 15261 "Logics for Dependence and Independence". This seminar served as a follow-up seminar to the highly successful seminar "Dependence Logic: Theory and Applications" (Dagstuhl Seminar 13071). A key objective of the seminar was to bring together researchers working in dependence logic and in the application areas so that they can communicate state-of-the-art advances and embark on a systematic interaction. The goal was especially to reach those researchers who have recently started working in this thriving area.

A Van Benthem Theorem for Modal Team Semantics

Authors: Juha Kontinen, Julian-Steffen Müller, Henning Schnoor, and Heribert Vollmer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 41, 24th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2015)


Abstract
The famous van Benthem theorem states that modal logic corresponds exactly to the fragment of first-order logic that is invariant under bisimulation. In this article we prove an exact analogue of this theorem in the framework of modal dependence logic (MDL) and team semantics. We show that Modal Team Logic (MTL) extending MDL by classical negation captures exactly the FO-definable bisimulation invariant properties of Kripke structures and teams. We also compare the expressive power of MTL to most of the variants and extensions of MDL recently studied in the area.

Dependence logic with a majority quantifier

Authors: Arnaud Durand, Johannes Ebbing, Juha Kontinen, and Heribert Vollmer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 13, IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2011)


Abstract
We study the extension of dependence logic D by a majority quantifier M over finite structures. We show that the resulting logic is equi-expressive with the extension of second-order logic by second-order majority quantifiers of all arities. Our results imply that, from the point of view of descriptive complexity theory, D(M) captures the complexity class counting hierarchy.

10061 Executive Summary – Circuits, Logic, and Games

Authors: Benjamin Rossman, Thomas Schwentick, Denis Thérien, and Heribert Vollmer

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10061, Circuits, Logic, and Games (2010)


Abstract
In the same way as during the first seminar on "Circuits, Logic, and Games"(Nov.~2006, 06451), the organizers aimed to bring together researchers from the areas of finite model theory and computational complexity theory, since they felt that perhaps not all developments in circuit theory and in logic had been explored fully in the context of lower bounds. In fact, the interaction between the areas has flourished a lot in the past 2-3 years, as can be exemplified by the following lines of research.

Complexity Results for Modal Dependence Logic

Authors: Peter Lohmann and Heribert Vollmer

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10061, Circuits, Logic, and Games (2010)


Abstract
Modal dependence logic was introduced very recently by Väänänen. It enhances the basic modal language by an operator dep. For propositional variables p_1,...,p_n, dep(p_1,...,p_(n-1);p_n) intuitively states that the value of p_n only depends on those of p_1,...,p_(n-1). Sevenster (J. Logic and Computation, 2009) showed that satisfiability for modal dependence logic is complete for nondeterministic exponential time. In this paper we consider fragments of modal dependence logic obtained by restricting the set of allowed propositional connectives. We show that satisfibility for poor man's dependence logic, the language consisting of formulas built from literals and dependence atoms using conjunction, necessity and possibility (i.e., disallowing disjunction), remains NEXPTIME-complete. If we only allow monotone formulas (without negation, but with disjunction), the complexity drops to PSPACE-completeness. We also extend Väänänen's language by allowing classical disjunction besides dependence disjunction and show that the satisfiability problem remains NEXPTIME-complete. If we then disallow both negation and dependence disjunction, satistiability is complete for the second level of the polynomial hierarchy. In this way we completely classify the computational complexity of the satisfiability problem for all restrictions of propositional and dependence operators considered by Väänänen and Sevenster.

Proof Complexity of Propositional Default Logic

Authors: Olaf Beyersdorff, Arne Meier, Sebastian Müller, Michael Thomas, and Heribert Vollmer

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10061, Circuits, Logic, and Games (2010)


Abstract
Default logic is one of the most popular and successful formalisms for non-monotonic reasoning. In 2002, Bonatti and Olivetti introduced several sequent calculi for credulous and skeptical reasoning in propositional default logic. In this paper we examine these calculi from a proof-complexity perspective. In particular, we show that the calculus for credulous reasoning obeys almost the same bounds on the proof size as Gentzen's system LK. Hence proving lower bounds for credulous reasoning will be as hard as proving lower bounds for LK. On the other hand, we show an exponential lower bound to the proof size in Bonatti and Olivetti's enhanced calculus for skeptical default reasoning.

The Complexity of Reasoning for Fragments of Autoepistemic Logic

Authors: Nadia Creignou, Arne Meier, Michael Thomas, and Heribert Vollmer

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10061, Circuits, Logic, and Games (2010)


Abstract
Autoepistemic logic extends propositional logic by the modal operator L. A formula that is preceded by an L is said to be "believed". The logic was introduced by Moore 1985 for modeling an ideally rational agent's behavior and reasoning about his own beliefs. In this paper we analyze all Boolean fragments of autoepistemic logic with respect to the computational complexity of the three most common decision problems expansion existence, brave reasoning and cautious reasoning. As a second contribution we classify the computational complexity of counting the number of stable expansions of a given knowledge base. To the best of our knowledge this is the first paper analyzing the counting problem for autoepistemic logic.
