Fixed-Parameter Hierarchies inside PSPACE
Treewidth measures the ”tree-likeness” of structures. Many NP-complete problems, e.g., propositional satisfiability, are tractable on bounded-treewidth structures. In this wo...

Fixed-parameter tractability, definability, and model checking
In this article, we study parameterized complexity theory from the perspective of logic, or more specifically, descriptive complexity theory. We propose to consider parameterized ...

Tree-Width for First Order Formulae
We introduce tree-width for first order formulae , fotw(). We show that computing fotw is fixed-parameter tractable with parameter fotw. Moreover, we show that on classes of formul...

Variability Management on Behavioral Models
This paper deals with managing variability on behavioral models. Such models are generally more complex, less tractable by hand than the static, structural parts of a system descr...

Lower Bounds for the Complexity of Monadic Second-Order Logic
Courcelle's famous theorem from 1990 states that any property of graphs definable in monadic second-order logic (MSO2) can be decided in linear time on any class of graphs of ...
