Strong Induction Is an Up-To Technique

Authors: Filippo Bonchi, Elena Di Lavore, and Anna Ricci

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 326, 33rd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2025)


Abstract
Up-to techniques are enhancements of the coinduction proof principle which, in lattice theoretic terms, is the dual of induction. What is the dual of coinduction up-to? By means of duality, we illustrate a theory of induction up-to and we observe that an elementary proof technique, commonly known as strong induction, is an instance of induction up-to. We also show that, when generalising our theory from lattices to categories, one obtains an enhancement of the induction definition principle known in the literature as comonadic recursion.

Graphical Rewriting for Diagrammatic Reasoning in Monoidal Categories in Lean4 (Short Paper)

Authors: Sam Ezeh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 309, 15th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2024)


Abstract
We present Untangle, a Lean4 extension for Visual Studio Code that displays string diagrams for morphisms inside monoidal categories, allowing users to rewrite expressions by clicking on natural transformations and morphisms in the string diagram. When the the user manipulates the string diagram by clicking on natural transformations in the Graphical User Interface, it attempts to generate relevant tactics to apply which it then inserts into the editor, allowing the user to prove equalities visually by diagram rewriting.

When Lawvere Meets Peirce: An Equational Presentation of Boolean Hyperdoctrines

Authors: Filippo Bonchi, Alessandro Di Giorgio, and Davide Trotta

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 306, 49th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2024)


Abstract
Fo-bicategories are a categorification of Peirce’s calculus of relations. Notably, their laws provide a proof system for first-order logic that is both purely equational and complete. This paper illustrates a correspondence between fo-bicategories and Lawvere’s hyperdoctrines. To streamline our proof, we introduce peircean bicategories, which offer a more succinct characterization of fo-bicategories.

The Flower Calculus

Authors: Pablo Donato

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 299, 9th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2024)


Abstract
We introduce the flower calculus, a deep inference proof system for intuitionistic first-order logic inspired by Peirce’s existential graphs. It works as a rewriting system over inductive objects called "flowers", that enjoy both a graphical interpretation as topological diagrams, and a textual presentation as nested sequents akin to coherent formulas. Importantly, the calculus dispenses completely with the traditional notion of symbolic connective, operating solely on nested flowers containing atomic predicates. We prove both the soundness of the full calculus and the completeness of an analytic fragment with respect to Kripke semantics. This provides to our knowledge the first analyticity result for a proof system based on existential graphs, adapting semantic cut-elimination techniques to a deep inference setting. Furthermore, the kernel of rules targetted by completeness is fully invertible, a desirable property for both automated and interactive proof search.

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 213, 41st IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2021)


Abstract
We extend the theory of Interacting Hopf algebras with an order primitive, and give a sound and complete axiomatisation of the prop of polyhedral cones. Next, we axiomatise an affine extension and prove soundness and completeness for the prop of polyhedra.

From Farkas' Lemma to Linear Programming: an Exercise in Diagrammatic Algebra ((Co)algebraic pearls)

Authors: Filippo Bonchi, Alessandro Di Giorgio, and Fabio Zanasi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 211, 9th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2021)


Abstract
Farkas' lemma is a celebrated result on the solutions of systems of linear inequalities, which finds application pervasively in mathematics and computer science. In this work we show how to formulate and prove Farkas' lemma in diagrammatic polyhedral algebra, a sound and complete graphical calculus for polyhedra. Furthermore, we show how linear programs can be modeled within the calculus and how some famous duality results can be proved.

On Doctrines and Cartesian Bicategories

Authors: Filippo Bonchi, Alessio Santamaria, Jens Seeber, and Paweł Sobociński

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 211, 9th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2021)


Abstract
We study the relationship between cartesian bicategories and a specialisation of Lawvere’s hyperdoctrines, namely elementary existential doctrines. Both provide different ways of abstracting the structural properties of logical systems: the former in algebraic terms based on a string diagrammatic calculus, the latter in universal terms using the fundamental notion of adjoint functor. We prove that these two approaches are related by an adjunction, which can be strengthened to an equivalence by imposing further constraints on doctrines.

Presenting Convex Sets of Probability Distributions by Convex Semilattices and Unique Bases ((Co)algebraic pearls)

Authors: Filippo Bonchi, Ana Sokolova, and Valeria Vignudelli

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 211, 9th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2021)


Abstract
We prove that every finitely generated convex set of finitely supported probability distributions has a unique base. We apply this result to provide an alternative proof of a recent result: the algebraic theory of convex semilattices presents the monad of convex sets of probability distributions.

Non-Axiomatizability of the Equational Theories of Positive Relation Algebras (Invited Talk)

Authors: Amina Doumane

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 202, 46th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2021)


Abstract
In the literature, there are two ways to show that the equational theory of relations over a given signature is not finitely axiomatizable. The first-one is based on games and a construction called Rainbow construction. This method is very technical but it shows a strong result: the equational theory cannot be axiomatized by any finite set of first-order formulas. There is another method, based on a graph characterization of the equational theory of relations, which is easier to get and to understand, but proves a weaker result: the equational theory cannot be axiomatized by any finite set of equations. In this presentation, I will show how to complete the second technique to get the stronger result of non-axiomatizability by first-order formulas.

A Deep Dive into the Weisfeiler-Leman Algorithm (Invited Talk)

Authors: Martin Grohe

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 202, 46th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2021)


Abstract
The Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm is a well-known combinatorial graph isomorphism test going back to work of Weisfeiler and Leman in the late 1960s. The algorithm has a surprising number of seemingly unrelated characterisations in terms of logic, algebra, linear and semi-definite programming, and graph homomorphisms. Due to its simplicity and efficiency, it is an important subroutine of all modern graph isomorphism tools. In recent years, further applications in linear optimisation, probabilistic inference, and machine learning have surfaced. In my talk, I will introduce the Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm and some extensions. I will discuss its expressiveness and the various characterisations, and I will speak about its applications.

Holonomic Techniques, Periods, and Decision Problems (Invited Talk)

Authors: Joël Ouaknine

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 202, 46th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2021)


Abstract
Holonomic techniques have deep roots going back to Wallis, Euler, and Gauss, and have evolved in modern times as an important subfield of computer algebra, thanks in large part to the work of Zeilberger and others over the past three decades (see, e.g., [Doron Zeilberger, 1990; Petkovšek et al., 1997]). In this talk, I give an overview of the area, and in particular present a select survey of known and original results on decision problems for holonomic sequences and functions. I also discuss some surprising connections to the theory of periods and exponential periods, which are classical objects of study in algebraic geometry and number theory; in particular, I relate the decidability of certain decision problems for holonomic sequences to deep conjectures about periods and exponential periods, notably those due to Kontsevich and Zagier. Parts of this exposition draws upon [George Kenison et al., 2021].
