Separating Graph Logic from MSO
Abstract. Graph logic (GL) is a spatial logic for querying graphs introduced by Cardelli et al. It has been observed that in terms of expressive power, this logic is a fragment of ...

A modal perspective on monadic second-order alternation hierarchies
abstract. We establish that the quantifier alternation hierarchy of formulae of Second-Order Propositional Modal Logic (SOPML) induces an infinite corresponding semantic hierarchy ...

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 ...

Verifying Finite-State Graph Grammars: An Unfolding-Based Approach
We propose a framework where behavioural properties of finite-state systems modelled as graph transformation systems can be expressed and verified. The technique is based on the ...

Expressiveness and complexity of graph logic
We investigate the complexity and expressive power of a spatial logic for reasoning about graphs. This logic was previously introduced by Cardelli, Gardner and Ghelli, and provide...
