The Boundary Between Decidability and Undecidability for Transitive-Closure Logics
To reason effectively about programs, it is important to have some version of a transitive-closure operator so that we can describe such notions as the set of nodes reachable from ...

Model Checking Quantified Computation Tree Logic
Propositional temporal logic is not suitable for expressing properties on the evolution of dynamically allocated entities over time. In particular, it is not possible to trace such...

On the Power of Tree-Walking Automata
Abstract. Tree-walking automata (TWAs) recently received new attention in the fields of formal languages and databases. Towards a better understanding of their expressiveness, we c...

Monadic datalog over finite structures with bounded treewidth
Bounded treewidth and Monadic Second Order (MSO) logic have proved to be key concepts in establishing fixed-parameter tractability results. Indeed, by Courcelle's Theorem we ...

Automata and Logics for Unranked and Unordered Trees
In this paper, we consider the monadic second order logic (MSO) and two of its extensions, namely Counting MSO (CMSO) and Presburger MSO (PMSO), interpreted over unranked and unord...
