String Diagrams for Closed Symmetric Monoidal Categories

Authors: Callum Reader and Alessandro Di Giorgio

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


Abstract
We introduce a graphical language for closed symmetric monoidal categories based on an extension of string diagrams with special bracket wires representing internal homs. These bracket wires make the structure of the internal hom functor explicit, allowing standard morphism wires to interact with them through a well-defined set of graphical rules. We establish the soundness and completeness of the diagrammatic calculus, and illustrate its expressiveness through examples drawn from category theory, logic and programming language semantics.

Towards A Rosetta Stone of Interactive and Quantitative Semantics (Invited Talk)

Authors: Pierre Clairambault

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


Abstract
Quantitative semantics are those denotational semantics that inherit from linear logic [Jean-Yves Girard, 1987] a sensitivity to the multiplicity of resources involved in computation. Those include the relational model [Jean-Yves Girard, 1987] and its numerous variations (such as finiteness spaces [Thomas Ehrhard, 2005], weighted relational models [Jim Laird et al., 2013] and their extensions [Thomas Ehrhard et al., 2011; Thomas Ehrhard, 2002], generalized species of structure [Fiore et al., 2008], span models [Paul-André Melliès, 2019; Pierre Clairambault and Simon Forest, 2023], etc), as well as related syntactic methods such as non-idempotent intersection types [Daniel de Carvalho, 2018] and Taylor expansion of lambda-terms [Thomas Ehrhard and Laurent Regnier, 2003]. Interactive semantics are usually also quantitative, but in addition they present the interactive behaviour of proofs and programs, generally organized chronologically - those include the many variants of game semantics (starting with [J. M. E. Hyland and C.-H. Luke Ong, 2000; Samson Abramsky et al., 2000]), and other frameworks such as Geometry of Interaction [Girard, 1989] or ludics [Jean-Yves Girard, 2001]. Both families are cornerstones of modern denotational semantics, and both have associated Alonzo Church awards: game semantics in 2017, and quantitative semantics (in particular, differential linear logic and the differential λ-calculus) in 2024. It has more or less always been clear to the experts that the two, sharing an origin in linear logic, are conceptually related. Yet there are differences, which seem fundamental: in particular, while quantitative models compose relationally, the composition of strategies follows an intricate "parallel interaction plus hiding" process inspired from concurrency theory [Abramsky, 1997]. The two families of models have also historically targeted different kinds of languages: whereas quantitative semantics focused on theoretical calculi (and the λ-calculus in particular), game semantics is known for fully abstract models for languages with elaborate combinations of effects including local state [Samson Abramsky and Guy McCusker, 1996], control operators [James Laird, 1997], and concurrent primitives [Dan R. Ghica and Andrzej S. Murawski, 2008]. Early on, researchers have explored the relationship between the two [Thomas Ehrhard, 1996; Patrick Baillot et al., 1997], and investigations on this question have spanned decades [Pierre Boudes, 2009; Ana C. Calderon and Guy McCusker, 2010; Takeshi Tsukada and C.-H. Luke Ong, 2016; C.-H. Luke Ong, 2017]. In particular, Melliès' work on asynchronous games [Paul-André Melliès, 2006; Paul-André Melliès, 2005] made significant conceptual contributions, showing that the issue was enlightened by adopting a positional formulation of game semantics, where points in the relational model simply arise as certain positions. This talk surveys recent developments in this line of work, shedding light on the connection between those two families. Our work is set in so-called "thin concurrent games" [Simon Castellan et al., 2019; Pierre Clairambault, 2024], an extension with symmetry of Rideau and Winskel’s concurrent games on event structures [Silvain Rideau and Glynn Winskel, 2011]. Event structures being one of the main "truly concurrent" models of concurrency [Glynn Winskel, 1986], it is perhaps expected that thin concurrent games can model concurrent languages: they provide a truly concurrent refinement of Ghica and Murawski’s fully abstract model of Idealized Concurrent Algol [Simon Castellan and Pierre Clairambault, 2024; Pierre Clairambault, 2024]. But beyond the semantics of concurrency, thin concurrent games are also a deep reworking on game semantics built from causal principles, inheriting from asynchronous games a positional flavour. In thin concurrent games, strategies have a dual nature: an event-based nature where they appear as certain event structures composed via parallel interaction plus hiding; or a positional nature where they appear as certain spans of groupoids, composed by pullback (modulo a technical condition on strategies called visibility) - they can be regarded both as a games and a relational model! Leveraging this dual nature, in a sequence of papers with Castellan, de Visme, Olimpieri and Paquet, we have been able to link the single framework of thin concurrent games with numerous other models. This includes various traditional alternating or non-alternating games models [Simon Castellan and Pierre Clairambault, 2024; Pierre Clairambault, 2024], the weighted relational model [Pierre Clairambault and Hugo Paquet, 2021], the quantum relational model [Pierre Clairambault and Marc de Visme, 2020], generalized species of structure [Pierre Clairambault et al., 2023], and - going beyond quantitative semantics - the linear Scott model [Clairambault, 2025], a linear decomposition of standard Scott domain semantics [Thomas Ehrhard, 2012]. All these distinct models are obtained by projecting away certain aspects of thin concurrent games, giving some support to the claim that thin concurrent games are a Rosetta stone for interactive and quantitative semantics.

Quantum Speedups for Polynomial-Time Dynamic Programming Algorithms

Authors: Susanna Caroppo, Giordano Da Lozzo, Giuseppe Di Battista, Michael T. Goodrich, and Martin Nöllenburg

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 349, 19th International Symposium on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 2025)


Abstract
We introduce a quantum dynamic programming framework that allows us to directly extend to the quantum realm a large body of classical dynamic programming algorithms. The corresponding quantum dynamic programming algorithms retain the same space complexity as their classical counterpart, while achieving a computational speedup. For a combinatorial (search or optimization) problem P and an instance I of P, such a speedup can be expressed in terms of the average degree δ of the {dependency digraph} G_𝒫(I) of I, determined by a recursive formulation of P. The nodes of this graph are the subproblems of P induced by I and its arcs are directed from each subproblem to those on whose solution it relies. In particular, our framework allows us to solve the considered problems in Õ(|V(G_𝒫(I))| √δ) time. As an example, we obtain a quantum version of the Bellman-Ford algorithm for computing shortest paths from a single source vertex to all the other vertices in a weighted n-vertex digraph with m edges that runs in Õ(n√{nm}) time, which improves the best known classical upper bound when m ∈ Ω(n^{1.4}).

Cancellative Convex Semilattices

Authors: Ana Sokolova and Harald Woracek

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 342, 11th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2025)


Abstract
Convex semilattices are algebras that are at the same time a convex algebra and a semilattice, together with a distributivity axiom. These algebras have attracted some attention in the last years as suitable algebras for probability and nondeterminism, in particular by being the Eilenberg-Moore algebras of the nonempty finitely-generated convex subsets of the distributions monad. A convex semilattice is cancellative if the underlying convex algebra is cancellative. Cancellative convex algebras have been characterized by M. H. Stone and by H. Kneser: A convex algebra is cancellative if and only if it is isomorphic to a convex subset of a vector space (with canonical convex algebra operations). We prove an analogous theorem for convex semilattices: A convex semilattice is cancellative if and only if it is isomorphic to a convex subset of a Riesz space, i.e., a lattice-ordered vector space (with canonical convex semilattice operations).

Unifying Boolean and Algebraic Descriptive Complexity

Authors: Baptiste Chanus, Damiano Mazza, and Morgan Rogers

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


Abstract
We introduce ultrarings, which simultaneously generalize commutative rings and Boolean lextensive categories. As such, they allow to blend together standard algebraic notions (from commutative algebra) and logical notions (from categorical logic), providing a unifying descriptive framework in which complexity classes over arbitrary rings (as in the Blum, Schub, Smale model) and usual, Boolean complexity classes may be captured in a uniform way.

Higher-Dimensional Automata: Extension to Infinite Tracks

Authors: Luc Passemard, Amazigh Amrane, and Uli Fahrenberg

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


Abstract
We introduce higher-dimensional automata for infinite interval ipomsets (ω-HDAs). We define key concepts from different points of view, inspired from their finite counterparts. Then we explore languages recognized by ω-HDAs under Büchi and Muller semantics. We show that Muller acceptance is more expressive than Büchi acceptance and, in contrast to the finite case, both semantics do not yield languages closed under subsumption. Then, we adapt the original rational operations to deal with ω-HDAs and show that while languages of ω-HDAs are ω-rational, not all ω-rational languages can be expressed by ω-HDAs.

∞-Categorical Models of Linear Logic

Authors: Eliès Harington and Samuel Mimram

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


Abstract
The notion of categorical model of linear logic is now well studied and established around the notion of linear-non-linear adjunction, which encompasses the earlier notions of Seely categories, Lafont categories and linear categories. These categorical structures have counterparts in the realm of ∞-categories, which can thus be thought of as weak forms of models of linear logic. The goal of this article is to formally introduce them and study their relationships. We show that ∞-linear-non-linear adjunctions still play the role of a unifying notion of model in this setting. Moreover, we provide a sufficient condition for a symmetric monoidal ∞-category to be Lafont. Finally, we illustrate our constructions by providing models: we construct linear-non-linear adjunctions that generalize well-known models in relations (and variants based on profunctors or spans), domains and vector spaces. In particular, we introduce a model based on spectra, a homotopical variant of abelian groups.

Pearl/Brave New Idea
Shouting at Memory: Where Did My Write Go? (Pearl/Brave New Idea)

Authors: Vasileios Klimis

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 333, 39th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2025)


Abstract
Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) promises persistent data, but verifying that promise on real hardware is challenging due to opaque caching and internal buffers like Intel’s WPQ, which obscure the true state of writes. Traditional validation methods often fall short. This paper introduces a novel perspective: leveraging the subtle timing variations of memory accesses as a direct probe into write persistence. We present a software technique, inspired by echolocation, that uses high-resolution timers to measure memory load latencies. These timings act as distinct signatures ("echoes") revealing whether a write’s data resides in volatile caches or has reached the NVM persistence domain. This offers a non-invasive method to track write progression towards durability. To reliably interpret these potentially noisy timing signatures and systematically explore complex persistence behaviours, we integrate this echolocation probe into an active model learning framework. This synergy enables the automated inference of a system’s actual persistency semantics directly from black-box hardware observations. The approach is hardware-agnostic, adaptive, and scalable. Preliminary experiments on Intel x86 - a platform where persistence validation is notably challenged by the opaque Write Pending Queue (WPQ) - demonstrate the feasibility of our technique. We observed distinct latency clusters differentiating volatile cache accesses from those reaching the persistence domain. This combined approach offers a promising path towards robust and automated validation of NVM persistency across diverse architectures.

Kernel Multiaccuracy

Authors: Carol Xuan Long, Wael Alghamdi, Alexander Glynn, Yixuan Wu, and Flavio P. Calmon

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 329, 6th Symposium on Foundations of Responsible Computing (FORC 2025)


Abstract
Predefined demographic groups often overlook the subpopulations most impacted by model errors, leading to a growing emphasis on data-driven methods that pinpoint where models underperform. The emerging field of multi-group fairness addresses this by ensuring models perform well across a wide range of group-defining functions, rather than relying on fixed demographic categories. We demonstrate that recently introduced notions of multi-group fairness can be equivalently formulated as integral probability metrics (IPM). IPMs are the common information-theoretic tool that underlie definitions such as multiaccuracy, multicalibration, and outcome indistinguishably. For multiaccuracy, this connection leads to a simple, yet powerful procedure for achieving multiaccuracy with respect to an infinite-dimensional class of functions defined by a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS): first perform a kernel regression of a model’s errors, then subtract the resulting function from a model’s predictions. We combine these results to develop a post-processing method that improves multiaccuracy with respect to bounded-norm functions in an RKHS, enjoys provable performance guarantees, and, in binary classification benchmarks, achieves favorable multiaccuracy relative to competing methods.

Monotone Weak Distributive Laws over the Lifted Powerset Monad in Categories of Algebras

Authors: Quentin Aristote

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)


Abstract
In both the category of sets and the category of compact Hausdorff spaces, there is a monotone weak distributive law that combines two layers of non-determinism. Noticing the similarity between these two laws, we study whether the latter can be obtained automatically as a weak lifting of the former. This holds partially, but does not generalize to other categories of algebras. We then characterize when exactly monotone weak distributive laws over powerset monads in categories of algebras exist, on the one hand exhibiting a law combining probabilities and non-determinism in compact Hausdorff spaces and showing on the other hand that such laws do not exist in a lot of other cases.

Survey
Towards Representing Processes and Reasoning with Process Descriptions on the Web

Authors: Andreas Harth, Tobias Käfer, Anisa Rula, Jean-Paul Calbimonte, Eduard Kamburjan, and Martin Giese

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
We work towards a vocabulary to represent processes and temporal logic specifications as graph-structured data. Different fields use incompatible terminologies for describing essentially the same process-related concepts. In addition, processes can be represented from different perspectives and levels of abstraction: both state-centric and event-centric perspectives offer distinct insights into the underlying processes. In this work, we strive to unify the representation of processes and related concepts by leveraging the power of knowledge graphs. We survey approaches to representing processes and reasoning with process descriptions from different fields and provide a selection of scenarios to help inform the scope of a unified representation of processes. We focus on processes that can be executed and observed via web interfaces. We propose to provide a representation designed to combine state-centric and event-centric perspectives while incorporating temporal querying and reasoning capabilities on temporal logic specifications. A standardised vocabulary and representation for processes and temporal specifications would contribute towards bridging the gap between the terminologies from different fields and fostering the broader application of methods involving temporal logics, such as formal verification and program synthesis.

Higher-Dimensional Timed and Hybrid Automata

Authors: Uli Fahrenberg

Published in: LITES, Volume 8, Issue 2 (2022): Special Issue on Distributed Hybrid Systems. Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems, Volume 8, Issue 2


Abstract
We introduce a new formalism of higher-dimensional timed automata, based on Pratt and van Glabbeek’s higher-dimensional automata and Alur and Dill’s timed automata. We prove that their reachability is PSPACE-complete and can be decided using zone-based algorithms. We also extend the setting to higher-dimensional hybrid automata.The interest of our formalism is in modeling systems which exhibit both real-time behavior and concurrency. Other existing formalisms for real-time modeling identify concurrency and interleaving, which, as we shall argue, is problematic.

Three results on the PageRank vector: eigenstructure, sensitivity, and the derivative

Authors: David Gleich, Peter Glynn, Gene Golub, and Chen Greif

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 7071, Web Information Retrieval and Linear Algebra Algorithms (2007)


Abstract
The three results on the PageRank vector are preliminary but shed light on the eigenstructure of a PageRank modified Markov chain and what happens when changing the teleportation parameter in the PageRank model. Computations with the derivative of the PageRank vector with respect to the teleportation parameter show predictive ability and identify an interesting set of pages from Wikipedia.
