Monadic Second-Order Logic and Transitive Closure Logics over Trees
Model theoretic syntax is concerned with studying the descriptive complexity of grammar formalisms for natural languages by defining their derivation trees in suitable logical for...

Comparing the Succinctness of Monadic Query Languages over Finite Trees
Abstract. We study the succinctness of monadic second-order logic and a variety of monadic fixed point logics on trees. All these languages are known to have the same expressive p...

Polynomials, Fragments of Temporal Logic and the Variety DA over Traces
Abstract. We show that some language theoretic and logical characterizations of recognizable word languages whose syntactic monoid is in the variety DA also hold over traces. To th...

A Descriptive Characterization of Tree-Adjoining Languages (Project Note)
Since the early Sixties and Seventies it has been known that the regular and context-free languages arc characterized by definability in the monadic second-order theory of certain...
