For many years, finite model theory was viewed as the backbone of database theory, and database theory in turn supplied finite model theory with key motivations and problems. By n...
Two kinds of orderings are widely used in term rewriting and theorem proving, namely recursive path ordering (RPO) and Knuth-Bendix ordering (KBO). They provide powerful tools to p...
Valiant has proposed a new theory of algorithmic computation based on perfect matchings and Pfaffians. We study the properties of matchgates—the basic building blocks in this n...
In a seminal paper, Lin and Reiter introduced a modeltheoretic definition for the progression of the initial knowledge base of a basic action theory. This definition comes with a ...
