: We review the expressibility of some basic graph properties in certain fragments of Monadic Second-Order logic, like the set of Monadic-NP formulas. We focus on cases where a pro...

This tutorial will present an overview of the use of Monadic Second-Order Logic to describe sets of finite graphs and graph transformations, in relation with the notions of tree-w...

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 ...

Although monadic second-order logic (MSO) has been a foundation of XML queries, little work has attempted to take MSO formulae themselves as a programming construct. Indeed, MSO f...

In 1974 R. Fagin proved that properties of structures which are in NP are exactly the same as those expressible by existential second order sentences, that is sentences of the form...
