Abstract. Nelson and Oppen provided a methodology for modularly combining decision procedures for individual theories to construct a decision procedure for a combination of theorie...
Then these analytically motivated abstractions were gradually made more intricate as the body of mathematical techniques grew. The trend went from elementary analysis of complex, i...
The refinement calculus of Back, Morgan, Morris, and others is based on monotone predicate transformers (weakest preconditions) where conjunctions stand for demonic choices betwee...
In this paper, a Jacobi-collocation spectral method is developed for Volterra integral equations of the second kind with a weakly singular kernel. We use some function transformati...
