Demystifying Codensity Monads via Duality

Authors: Fabian Lenke, Nico Wittrock, Stefan Milius, and Henning Urbat

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)


Abstract
Codensity monads provide a universal method to generate complex monads from simple functors. Recently, a wide range of important monads in logic, denotational semantics, and probabilistic computation, such as several incarnations of the ultrafilter monad, the Vietoris monad, and the Giry monad, have been presented as codensity monads, using complex arguments. We propose a unifying categorical approach to codensity presentations of monads, based on the idea of relating the presenting functor to a dense functor via a suitable duality between categories. We prove a general presentation result applying to every such situation and demonstrate that most codensity presentations known in the literature emerge from this strikingly simple duality-based setup, drastically alleviating the complexity of their proofs and in many cases completely reducing them to standard duality results. Additionally, we derive a number of novel codensity presentations using our framework, including the first non-trivial codensity presentations for the filter monads on sets and topological spaces, the lower Vietoris monad on topological spaces, and the expectation monad on sets.

Three Fundamental Questions in Modern Infinite-Domain Constraint Satisfaction

Authors: Michael Pinsker, Jakub Rydval, Moritz Schöbi, and Christoph Spiess

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)


Abstract
The Feder-Vardi dichotomy conjecture for Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs) with finite templates, confirmed independently by Bulatov and Zhuk, has an extension to certain well-behaved infinite templates due to Bodirsky and Pinsker which remains wide open. We provide answers to three fundamental questions on the scope of the Bodirsky-Pinsker conjecture. Our first two main results provide two simplifications of this scope, one of structural, and the other one of algebraic nature. The former simplification implies that the conjecture is equivalent to its restriction to templates without algebraicity, a crucial assumption in the most powerful classification methods. The latter yields that the higher-arity invariants of any template within its scope can be assumed to be essentially injective, and any algebraic condition characterizing any complexity class within the conjecture closed under Datalog reductions must be satisfiable by injections, thus lifting the mystery of the better applicability of certain conditions over others. Our third main result uses the first one to show that any non-trivially tractable template within the scope serves, up to a Datalog-computable modification of it, as the witness of the tractability of a non-finitely tractable finite-domain Promise Constraint Satisfaction Problem (PCSP) by the so-called sandwich method. This generalizes a recent result of Mottet and provides a strong hitherto unknown connection between the Bodirsky-Pinsker conjecture and finite-domain PCSPs.

Mechanized Undecidability of Higher-Order Beta-Matching

Authors: Andrej Dudenhefner

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 337, 10th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2025)


Abstract
Higher-order β-matching is the following decision problem: given two simply typed λ-terms, can the first term be instantiated to be β-equivalent to the second term? This problem was formulated by Huet in the 1970s and shown undecidable by Loader in 2003 by reduction from λ-definability. The present work provides a novel undecidability proof for higher-order β-matching, in an effort to verify this result by means of a proof assistant. Rather than starting from λ-definability, the presented proof encodes a restricted form of string rewriting as higher-order β-matching. The particular approach is similar to Urzyczyn’s undecidability result for intersection type inhabitation. The presented approach has several advantages. First, the proof is simpler to verify in full detail due to the simple form of rewriting systems, which serve as a starting point. Second, undecidability of the considered problem in string rewriting is already certified using the Coq proof assistant. As a consequence, we obtain a certified many-one reduction from the Halting Problem to higher-order β-matching. Third, the presented approach identifies a uniform construction which shows undecidability of higher-order β-matching, λ-definability, and intersection type inhabitation. The presented undecidability proof is mechanized in the Coq proof assistant and contributed to the existing Coq Library of Undecidability Proofs.

Algebraic Language Theory with Effects

Authors: Fabian Lenke, Stefan Milius, Henning Urbat, and Thorsten Wißmann

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)


Abstract
Regular languages - the languages accepted by deterministic finite automata - are known to be precisely the languages recognized by finite monoids. This characterization is the origin of algebraic language theory. In this paper, we generalize the correspondence between automata and monoids to automata with generic computational effects given by a monad, providing the foundations of an effectful algebraic language theory. We show that, under suitable conditions on the monad, a language is computable by an effectful automaton precisely when it is recognizable by (1) an effectful monoid morphism into an effect-free finite monoid, and (2) a monoid morphism into a monad-monoid bialgebra whose carrier is a finitely generated algebra for the monad, the former mode of recognition being conceptually completely new. Our prime application is a novel algebraic approach to languages computed by probabilistic finite automata. Additionally, we derive new algebraic characterizations for nondeterministic probabilistic finite automata and for weighted finite automata over unrestricted semirings, generalizing previous results on weighted algebraic recognition over commutative rings.

Abstract
Large Language Models (LLMs) have taken Knowledge Representation - and the world - by storm. This inflection point marks a shift from explicit knowledge representation to a renewed focus on the hybrid representation of both explicit knowledge and parametric knowledge. In this position paper, we will discuss some of the common debate points within the community on LLMs (parametric knowledge) and Knowledge Graphs (explicit knowledge) and speculate on opportunities and visions that the renewed focus brings, as well as related research topics and challenges.

Causal Unfoldings

Authors: Marc de Visme and Glynn Winskel

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 139, 8th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2019)


Abstract
In the simplest form of event structure, a prime event structure, an event is associated with a unique causal history, its prime cause. However, it is quite common for an event to have disjunctive causes in that it can be enabled by any one of multiple sets of causes. Sometimes the sets of causes may be mutually exclusive, inconsistent one with another, and sometimes not, in which case they coexist consistently and constitute parallel causes of the event. The established model of general event structures can model parallel causes. On occasion however such a model abstracts too far away from the precise causal histories of events to be directly useful. For example, sometimes one needs to associate probabilities with different, possibly coexisting, causal histories of a common event. Ideally, the causal histories of a general event structure would correspond to the configurations of its causal unfolding to a prime event structure; and the causal unfolding would arise as a right adjoint to the embedding of prime in general event structures. But there is no such adjunction. However, a slight extension of prime event structures remedies this defect and provides a causal unfolding as a universal construction. Prime event structures are extended with an equivalence relation in order to dissociate the two roles, that of an event and its enabling; in effect, prime causes are labelled by a disjunctive event, an equivalence class of its prime causes. With this enrichment a suitable causal unfolding appears as a pseudo right adjoint. The adjunction relies critically on the central and subtle notion of extremal causal realisation as an embodiment of causal history.

Stone Duality and the Substitution Principle

Authors: Célia Borlido, Silke Czarnetzki, Mai Gehrke, and Andreas Krebs

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 82, 26th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2017)


Abstract
In this paper we relate two generalisations of the finite monoid recognisers of automata theory for the study of circuit complexity classes: Boolean spaces with internal monoids and typed monoids. Using the setting of stamps, this allows us to generalise a number of results from algebraic automata theory as it relates to Büchi's logic on words. We obtain an Eilenberg theorem, a substitution principle based on Stone duality, a block product principle for typed stamps and, as our main result, a topological semidirect product construction, which corresponds to the application of a general form of quantification. These results provide tools for the study of language classes given by logic fragments such as the Boolean circuit complexity classes.

The Schützenberger Product for Syntactic Spaces

Authors: Mai Gehrke, Daniela Petrisan, and Luca Reggio

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 55, 43rd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2016)


Abstract
Starting from Boolean algebras of languages closed under quotients and using duality theoretic insights, we derive the notion of Boolean spaces with internal monoids as recognisers for arbitrary formal languages of finite words over finite alphabets. This leads to recognisers and syntactic spaces in a setting that is well-suited for applying tools from Stone duality as applied in semantics. The main focus of the paper is the development of topo-algebraic constructions pertinent to the treatment of languages given by logic formulas. In particular, using the standard semantic view of quantification as projection, we derive a notion of Schützenberger product for Boolean spaces with internal monoids. This makes heavy use of the Vietoris construction - and its dual functor - which is central to the coalgebraic treatment of classical modal logic. We show that the unary Schützenberger product for spaces yields a recogniser for the language of all models of the formula EXISTS x.phi(x), when applied to a recogniser for the language of all models of phi(x). Further, we generalise global and local versions of the theorems of Schützenberger and Reutenauer characterising the languages recognised by the binary Schützenberger product. Finally, we provide an equational characterisation of Boolean algebras obtained by local Schützenberger product with the one element space based on an Egli-Milner type condition on generalised factorisations of ultrafilters on words.

Duality in Computer Science (Dagstuhl Seminar 15441)

Authors: Mai Gehrke, Achim Jung, Victor Selivanov, and Dieter Spreen

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 5, Issue 10 (2016)


Abstract
This report documents the programme and outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 15441 `Duality in Computer Science'. This seminar served as a follow-up seminar to the seminar `Duality in Computer Science' (Dagstuhl Seminar 13311). In this seminar, we focused on applications of duality to semantics for probability in computation, to algebra and coalgebra, and on applications in complexity theory. A key objective of this seminar was to bring together researchers from these communities within computer science as well as from mathematics with the goal of uncovering commonalities, forging new collaborations, and sharing tools and techniques between areas based on their common use of topological methods and duality.

Duality in Computer Science (Dagstuhl Seminar 13311)

Authors: Mai Gehrke, Jean-Eric Pin, Victor Selivanov, and Dieter Spreen

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 3, Issue 7 (2013)


Abstract
Duality allows one to move between the two worlds: the world of certain algebras of properties and a spacial world of individuals, thereby leading to a change of perspective that may, and often does, lead to new insights. Dualities have given rise to active research in a number of areas of theoretical computer science. Dagstuhl Seminar 13311 "Duality in Computer Science" was held to stimulate research in this area. This report collects the ideas that were presented and discussed during the course of the seminar.
